Use These Tips to Find Blogs Looking for Guest Writers

Guest posting on blogs and websites has long been an effective way to obtain traffic for your own sites. The problem for many bloggers and site owners is that they soon run out of guest posting opportunities. If this happens it means that you will need to dig deeper to find sites willing to publish your posts.

Start by thinking about your primary keywords that are used to search for guest posting gigs. If your own expertise is dogs you've probably narrowed the keyword by things like breed, size, and other related factors. Now it's time to branch out and look for sites that appeal to specific niche markets related to dogs.

For example, you could search the following terms:

dog grooming + guest posts flea prevention for dogs + bloggers wanted caring for older dogs + guest posts accepted

What you have just done with these searches is address what are known as shoulder niches. You can think of these niches as the branches on a tree. Your body of knowledge has a head. It also has offshoots that relate to your primary area of expertise.

There are some advantages of marketing to shoulder niches. You can potentially gain some new visitors through traffic that you wouldn't typically get. Unlike other methods of generating traffic which leave web visitors frustrated because they can't find what they are looking for, shoulder niche traffic is related to a primary area of interest.

It also helps to remember that searching long-tailed keywords is going to serve up a different batch of results. Get specific with your searches:

Hair care for dogs + blog posts - WRONG Hair care for short-haired terriers in cold climates + write for our blog - RIGHT

Try to drill down as far as you can to find those guest posting opportunities that other bloggers are missing. The reward can be more exposure for you and greater authority in your field. For more information click here https://www.reddit.com/r/SEO/comments/d5d90a/runningoutofguestpost_sites/.
