Before you write.
- Are you the official Melaka tourism board?
- No. TourismMelaka.com is an independent editorial guide with no affiliation with Tourism Malaysia or any state tourism authority. For official government tourism services, please contact the relevant authority directly.
- Can I republish or quote your content?
- Short quotes with attribution and a link back to the original article - yes, no need to ask. Anything longer, please email first.
- Do you accept guest posts?
- Rarely. If you have genuine subject-matter expertise on Melaka and a piece of writing that already exists, send it over with a short pitch.
- Will you review my hotel / restaurant for free?
- We review what we choose. If you'd like to discuss a hosted visit, get in touch - we can't promise coverage, and whatever we write is always editorial.
- Can I advertise on the site?
- Yes. We offer featured listings, affiliate partnerships, and select advertising for brands that fit the site. We're choosy about what we run. If you're a travel brand relevant to Melaka, get in touch.
- Do you offer tour guiding?
- No, we're writers, not tour leaders. But if you're looking for someone to show you around, email us and we'll point you to operators we'd actually recommend.
