12. How do we determine that they’re quality sites?
 Facebook fans and Twitter followers. I don’t have an exact number
to aim for, however, anything around 1,000 or higher is definitely ok.
 Comments on blog posts. If there are comments on the blog posts,
then you know that there are readers for one thing, and that they’re
interested in the topics.
 The site doesn’t just do guest posts or sell links — they also write
content for the site. (The site isn’t some sort of content farm)
 The content should be good too — easy to read, understand and not
your generic regurgitated information. It should be obvious
that someone cares about that site.

13. Benefits of Guest Posting
 Get free exposure
 Build quality and relevant backlinks
 Drive fresh visitors to your blog

 Contribute to the growth of another blog, and getting credit for it
 Make money from affiliate programs
 Build your email list quickly and professionally
 Build a tribe, a fan-base or a strong following
 Engage strangers and command them to checkout your blog

14. Guest Posting Traffic is far much better than bought

Put/Add Related Images
You may include self-promoting Links
Promote the post and reply to comments
Come back again
Talk/communicate to them nicely
Your post must be original and must have
never been published before on the Internet

17. The DON’TS for Guest Posting
o Must not include URLs in title or post summary
o Must not include personal information such as home number or
residential address.
o Do not include affiliated program links or copyrighted contents. If
copyright contents are used, they either Must be in property of
author or with permission.
o Do not repeat same keywords in your every post.

18. To become a Contributor for
High PR Sites is NOT EASY!
(Sites with PR 5-9)

19. Getting your article placed on a very authoritative site
isn’t always easy for several reasons:
o It takes a great deal of time to prove you’re an expert to sites that have tons
of guest contributors. If you’re a full-time guest writer, it’s hard to justify
spending all your time waiting for an email reply or writing an article that
you hope someone will like.
o Sites with a high PR typically have a high PR because they only publish the
best. If a site is asking you for samples of your writing and you don’t have
enough, you might not be able to get published on that site.
o A good deal of authoritative websites don’t even bother accepting guest
posts. This really limits the number of sites available.

20. How to Analyze a Site with a Low PR
 Check dates and frequency of articles.
 See if you can navigate your way around the site.
 Analyze the content and the focus of the articles.

22. How to Craft a Great Guest Bio
o If your goal is to get good backlinks, just make sure your bio includes a link back to
your website with your target anchor text and you are all set.
o If your goal is to get traffic back to your website, then you might want to consider
where you want that traffic to go. Depending on the subject of your guest post
and the audience of the blog you place it upon, you might want to send traffic to a
custom landing page or page about a specific product / service.
o If your goal is to increase followers to your social accounts, do this by adding a line
to the end of your bio that says “Follow me on (insert your top social network and
link here).”

23. Getting More Positive Responses for Your Guest Post Requests
o Women get more positive responses than men.
o Job titles matter – This refers to the fact that a larger percent of contacted
websites responded positively to in-house employees and freelancers than
to agency employees.
o Completely bespoke emails work best (as opposed to personalised
templates and worse, completely impersonal emails)
o Proactive wording is better in most cases.
o Persistence will pay off in the end.
