Guest Posting: What Works and What Doesn't

SEO experts always suggest guesting posting. Unfortunately, finding a quality blog which will accept your guest post isn't easy. Good bloggers who have made a name for themselves in their industry are tired of getting spam emails from SEO companies and individuals wanting to submit a guest post.

You have to send out hundreds of emails for a few dozen backlinks. Concentrate on blogs in your niche, but not your direct competition. Don't waste your time on blogs where you won't reach a new, large audience of people who would be interested in what you're offering.

What Does Not Work

Bloggers see poorly worded requests in their emails daily and usually delete them before reading the email. Emails which get deleted quickly include templates and emails with signs English isn't the writer's first language.

Send a Personalized Email

If you want someone to take your request to submit a guest post seriously, send a personalized email. The only email they may open are personalized emails that show the requester went to the trouble of finding out their name and understanding what their blog is about before submitting a request.

Make Your Name Known

Getting your email opened is easier when the recipient recognizes your name. Comment on their blog, follow the blogger on social media and share some of their posts. Mention that you're familiar with their blog and are writing a relevant post in the same style. If they only feature in-depth articles, mention the word count of the article you are writing.

Suggest a Great Topic

Review the blog you are emailing and find a topic in the niche where there is poor coverage. The publisher is more likely to show interest if you can fill a gap in his or her blog.
