eClean's Blogging 101, Day 6: Invite Guests

Today we’re going to examine an option that is strongly encouraged by
blogging experts: using other people’s words rather than your own.

Guest bloggers are good for offering variety as well as for SEO. Often other
professionals are looking for ways to get their names/companies in front of new
customers, as well as adding to their backlinks for SEO, so offering them a blog
spot on your site, along with a short bio and a link to their site, is good for
them and for you.

Examples:

  • A Realtor could write on the importance of cleaning a home’s exterior to
    keep the resale value up
  • An insurance agent or roofer could write on the damage caused by roof
    algae
  • A fire marshal could write on the need to keep kitchen exhaust systems
    clean
  • A police officer could write on the dangers of keeping graffiti on a
    building

And the list goes on.

There are some sites where you can register, such as MyBlogGuest.com, where
you can see articles by bloggers looking to be posted on blog sites. However,
fair warning: you will be bombarded by emails if you sign up for notifications,
and registering on the site is kind of pain. Still, there are some decent
articles available if you have the time to dig.
