Guest posting

Is guest posting is an effective method for link building?

 

Sure, it is one of the most effective techniques for link building.

 

The answer to that question is not simple yes or no, you have to take into account the quality of the domain you are posting on as well as your target keyword.

 

It is *only* effective if Guest Posting is done correctly. As Shaun mentioned above, it really comes down to the quality of the
site that you are posting too; high authority these days is not what you should be looking for; If you post on a high authroity
site, and TF is very low, then your post will not be very effective, as this implies the site has alot of spam backlinks just to
push their authority up. If you post on a site that has low authority, and high trust flow, then this is where I would submit
my post as this implies that google trusts this site. If I have a site that has DA:40 PA:35 TF:4 then let this be a warning
to the type of backlinks this site has; If I have a site with DA:20 PA:20 TF:15 then I would be less concerned.

I have noticed some SEO providers that use junk backlinks are now calling them Guest Posts so they can jack up prices, and
the backlinks were the same links they were providing the month before. a junk backlink will always be a junk backlink....You
need to be really careful on choosing your seo provider, or you could end up spending several 100 dollars over a few months,
and all you may get is months worth of junk backlinks that will provide you zero value.

95% or higher of seo providers offer junk backlinks....
(I have used enough of them to know better....)

 

Yes, Guest posting is a good source of link building because we are getting relevant backlinks.

 

Guest posting helps too link building and drives good enough traffic to your website but you should have professional content writing skills to do that.

 

yes, I am also focusing on TF, DA is factor but now TF has become a good parameter to measure websites spam score.

 

The guest post:

1. Should go from an article to another article that is relevant to the first.
   
2. The websites should be relevant to one another.
3. They should be "dofollow" links.
4. The backlink should make sense within the article. Not just randomly drop a text link.
5. The website should NOT look like it is part of a PBN.
6. Ideally, the website should not be in a PBN.

If you can do all of the above things then your guest post is considered to be a "good backlink". Anything less, and you may be having to disavow the backlink in Google Webmaster tools. And whatever you spent on the backlink would be a waste.

 

in 2017 i see lot of boost in ranking with Guest post but only guest post not give you Top position you need other type of backlinks too

 

What is the best way to contact the website owner to accept a guest post? Could you please let me know?

 

First Find Blog good for your site then email and ask him if he allow you a guest post

 

Thanks for your reply. Appreciate!

 

I usually find their 'guest posting' page or 'contact us' and email them/fill in the form. Probably about 1/2 respond. The prices vary wildly from free to into the $thousands to post. On average you're looking at about $75 per post.

 

From my personal experience I can tell you its not! I have done guest posts i many different niches from weight loss to education but currently they seem to work for short time and after some improvements in ranking Google seem to be pushing the results.They might be seing them as link networks so better not to go for bulk guest posting.Other reason why I don't use them is the fact that most of the bloggers use their blogs for trading links and posting paid sponsored content and as a result too many commercial anchor text and links start to point other domains which is not natural.

 

I need a free blog post for my website. Could you please send me some digital marketing category blog that are accepting content to post.
I look forward to seeing the free guest post website list.

 

YES! @shumail, you should be checking where you're guest posting. If you're guest posting on a site that's been penalized, then yeah, that will crush your rankings. But it's nonsense to think guest posting would hurt your SEO overall. Like anything, it's how you utilize it. Is the site itself reputable, and trusted by Google? Is it related to your niche? Are you abusing anchor text?

If you're constantly using guest posting to link the same content, or use the same anchor text, that's going to get your site slapped. Just mix up your anchor text, and guest post only on high quality blogs related to your niche.

 

Yes, But guest posting site should have high authority and organic traffic.

 

with high PA DA MOZ CF TF with good quality niche related content guest post is boost your site

 

Yes of course, it boost your website traffic & keywords SERP positions quickly.

Note : Build only spam free quality back links

 

I think it's the most successful way. It's good for both the donor and the acceptor.
