Going the other way, miles to feet does the reverse conversion. If you want a figure already worked out, conversion chart lists the common ones, and about & methodology documents every constant used here and where it comes from.
Related conversions: ft/s to mph for speed, sq ft to sq miles for land area, and feet to mil for the unit people most often confuse with the mile.
Do you accept guest posts?
Yes — FT to Miles accepts expert guest posts on unit conversion and measurement standards. Articles must be 1,000+ words, original, and sourced to primary standards rather than other blogs. Email your title and outline to gemprogrammersgp@gmail.com before writing, and we reply within about five working days.
Topics
What we are looking for
Four kinds of piece consistently earn a place here.
Measurement standards, explained properly
How a unit was actually defined and by whom — the 1959 Yard and Pound Agreement, the deprecation of the US survey foot, why the nautical mile is 1,852 m. Primary sources, not paraphrased blog posts.
Field experience with conversion
You survey land, plan flights, coach runners, or spec coatings in mil. Write about the conversions that actually bite in your work and the errors you have seen cost money.
Worked, checkable maths
Step-by-step conversions with the arithmetic shown. Every number in the piece has to be reproducible by a reader with a calculator.
Historical and etymological pieces
Furlongs, Roman miles, the chain and the rod, why imperial units divide the way they do. Well-sourced history performs strongly here.
Guidelines
Submission rules
- 1,000+ words. Shorter pieces do not cover a topic well enough to be useful.
- Original and unpublished. We check, and we will not publish syndicated content.
- Every factual claim is sourced. Link the standard, the agency, or the paper — not another blog.
- Open with a 40–60 word direct answer to the title question before any preamble.
- No AI-generated filler. We can tell, and it will be rejected without a second review.
- One relevant, non-spammy outbound link to your own site is welcome in the author bio.
- We edit for clarity and house style, and we may add internal links. Facts are never changed without asking you.
How to pitch
- Read three existing posts on the unit conversion blog so you can see the depth and tone we publish at.
- Check the topic is not already covered — the HTML sitemap lists every page on the site.
- Email gemprogrammersgp@gmail.com with your title, a three-line outline, and two published samples.
- We reply within about five working days, either way.
Context
Where your article would sit
