Music Blogs to Submit To in 2026, With Prices and Turnaround

Three ways a music blog says yes

Every music blog says yes in one of three ways. Editorial pitching costs nothing and guarantees nothing. Pay-per-pitch platforms charge per submission and still guarantee nothing. A guaranteed placement charges for the article and publishes it on a date you can plan around.

Most artists need a mix: one or two guaranteed articles as the anchor, then targeted pitches that point at them.

Editorial pitching

Large outlets cover what their editors choose. A pitch under 200 words with one streaming link and one real credential, sent three to four weeks before release, is the version that gets read. Our guide to submitting your music to blogs covers the email itself.

Pay-per-pitch platforms

SubmitHub charges roughly $1 to $4 per submission with reported approval rates below 5%. Groover charges roughly 2 to 3 euros per submission and guarantees feedback, not coverage. Both are useful for feedback and occasional wins. Neither is a plan.

FAQ

Which music blogs accept submissions?

Most music blogs accept pitches by email or through SubmitHub, but only some guarantee coverage. The table on this page lists outlets that publish paid music articles, with price and turnaround.

How much does it cost to get on a music blog?

From about $100 for a guaranteed article on a smaller outlet to $1,000 and up for major brands. On AllHipHop it is $80 for a Get Featured spot or $100 for a permanent article.

Is SubmitHub worth it?

For feedback, sometimes. As a coverage plan, the reported approval rate below 5% makes the cost per published result high. See our pay-per-pitch comparison for the math.
