Better Known As Guest Posting 101

There are many ways to draw traffic to your blog or website but one of the most effective ways is through guest blogging. This strategy allows you to bring another person’s audience to your website. Here you are granted access to the effort they’ve placed in building an audience. Moreover, if you would do just one guest blog post weekly you may quickly discover how your site’s popularity rises to the top.

Now that you’ve gotten the idea how do you land guest blog gigs while ensuring these posts attract more readers? Ask other bloggers.

When approaching other bloggers it is vital to remember that you’re asking them for an equal value deal. If you approach these blog owners as if you are asking them for a favor you’ve already stacked the deck against yourself before even presenting the proposal.

How do you negotiate the deal?

By giving them a brief synopsis of how it will work. Which should include a few potential topics you’d like to write about. Let them know all they’ll need to do is copy and paste the article into their website. Further, emphasize why this is beneficial to them and your reasoning behind giving them free content. Make your contribution sound as risk-free as possible while reiterating how this is a win-win proposition for both parties.

Then request the order. Make sure you give them a link to your site so they have the opportunity to become familiar with the quality of your content. This way they can also ensure that you both have similar values. If they like your site, which is a reflection of who you are they will probably respond to your request. Don’t allow discouragement to set in because you don’t get every site you request to write for. As a matter of fact, you’ll probably get more “no’s” and no responses. But eventually, you will also gain a lot of people who say “yes.” And that’s your main objective.

And with reaching this milestone please keep honing your writing skills so the more orders you gain the more the people you guest post for will request you again.

Keep pecking those darn keys! Thank you for your continued readership and support. Until next week…Blessings and Peace!
