Guest Blogging: Why Summertime is the Right Time
July 30, 2010 By
Summertime is a hot time for guest blogging (pun intended). In the past week the blogosphere has been buzzing about the topic. If you’re a blogger seeking to build credibility and make connections fast, this is the way to go.
Guest blogging for a well-known blogger in your niche brings built-in readers, traffic, and authority. All you have to do is bring great content. In a previous post, I talked about how blogging on a daily basis didn’t fit my personality. If you can relate, then guest blogging is a smart way to supplement your schedule. Instead of writing post after post for your blog that’s not as visible, you can write one post for a popular blog to boost your traffic in a matter of days.
Like you, bloggers are real people-people who take vacations, who get tired, and who need a break. For these reasons, summertime is a great time to secure blogging spots.

Are We Burned Out On Guest Blogging?
December 17, 2008 By
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?
