What Guest.Market is

Guest.Market is a web marketplace where experts can create public profiles and people can search for guests for podcasts, conferences, journalism and other interviews. Podcasters, event directors and journalists can use simple or advanced search to find people with relevant expertise. Search accepts up to three terms and uses AND matching, so results must match each term entered. Advanced search features, including automated email alerts, require signing in or creating an account. Agencies can manage any number of experts from one login and control their contact information. Guest.Market says it handles search optimization and indexing for expert profiles. Users communicate directly with one another; the service says it does not control those conversations. Basic services are free until further notice. The signup page says user information will not be sold or shared with a third party. Its privacy policy also describes cookies and visitor logs that may include IP address, browser type, timestamps and pages visited. The terms do not allow people under 18 to use the site.
