I have a few different guest blogging opportunities on my network that offer an excellent back link from established sites – yet lately I have few takers. Why is that?

A year ago it was considered quite an honor to be invited to write a guest post on someone else’s blog. Have guest blogging opportunities grown at such a rate that we’re all burned out on it?

If the answer is yes I think it’s a shame.

A one way link from an established, relevant website is valuable and guest blogging continues to be a great way to build a fresh, relevant link to your site.

I think guest blogging should still be given a relatively high priority in your marketing plan. Plan out a regular schedule on multiple blogs and use your guest posts to target links to important internal pages of your website.

Always keep an eye out for a new guest blogging opportunity – you want fresh links from new places to advance your overall authority on the web.

Question: Do you guest blog? Will you now?

    I’ve got a collaborative blog that I find hard to motivate my guests to blog on. Hoping it’s just the holidays and after the first of the year everyone will contribute more.

    In my opinion, the state of being “burned out” could be a reflection that the honeymoon period associated with guest blogging might’ve come to an end.

    Like you mentioned, if you have a clear outcome, goals and a timeframe in mind, guest blogging, just like article submission, blog commenting, forum participation, just becomes part of the routine in building a solid internet business with deep foundations and fundamentals.

    There is hard work involved at times, but in the longer view, it’ll all be worth it.
