          Hello All,

          I'm looking to perform a 'Standard' guest blog post link building tactic, but i'm a little unsure as where to start.

          Does anybody have a list/ guide to websites that accept guest posts?

          Preferably ones that are useful for SEO purposes, I have been link building for about 3 months now, but to be honest, most of these links are NoFollow, which isn't too great!

            www.myblogguest.com I've found is decent for getting good backlinks from guest blogs.  However, the guest blog post has got to be to a decent standard to get accepted.  It goes into a list of posts for selected.  There's another one called blogger link up which is a kind of dating service for guest blog posts and publishers 😉

              Hi,

              http://myblogguest.com/ is a good site for you to find blogs that are willing to accept guest blogs.  You have to sign up for an account and it is a community where people request for blogs to post on or request for posts for their blog.  It is 100% free and join the comunity to find a blog that you think fits your niche and message the blog owners to see if they want to post your article.

              hope this helps!

                Great answer above me, so I'd only add another resource to finding guest post opportunities.

                Stoked SEO's link building query generator utilises all the different google search terms you can use to also find posting opportunities.

                Don't forget to look at related blogs on sites like Technorati as well, and approach them through their contact forms.

                  _Again I would like to say that your approach toward guest blogging is not correct. Guest blogging is not a hit and run thing. Do not be in such rush to get articles published in sites that accept guest posts. And who said that no-followed links do not add any value? You should not believe Google all the time 😉

                  Take it this way. You need to treat it as a way to promote your brand. So hire the best writer and prepare a killer content or you can hire a professional graphic designer and create a killer infographic whatever it suits your purpose._

                  And I do not wish to play wise here. So, here is the ultimate resource:

                    Question about Indexing of /?limit=all

                    Hi, i've got your SEO Suite Ultimate installed on my site (www.customlogocases.com). I've got a relatively new magento site (around 1 year). We have recently been doing some pr/seo for the category pages, for example /custom-ipad-cases/ But when I search on google, it seems that google has indexed the /custom-ipad-cases/?limit=all This /?limit=all page is one without any links, and only has a PA of 1. Whereas the standard /custom-ipad-cases/ without the /? query has a much higher pa of 20, and a couple of links pointing towards it. So therefore I would want this particular page to be the one that google indexes. And along the same logic, this page really should be able to achieve higher rankings than the /?limit=all page. Is my thinking here correct? Should I disallow all the /? now, even though these are the ones that are indexed, and the others currently are not. I'd be happy to take the hit while it figures it out, because the higher PA pages are what I ultimately am getting links to... Thoughts?

                    Should I use **tags or h1/h2 tags for article titles on my homepage**

                    I recently had an seo consultant recommend using tags instead of h1/h2 tags for article titles on the homepage of my news website and category landing pages. I've only seen this done a handful of times on news/editorial websites. For example: http://www.muscleandfitness.com/ Can anyone weigh in on this?

                    My blog is indexing only the archive and category pages

                    Hi there MOZ community.  I am new to the QandA and have a question. I have a blog Its been live for months - but I can not get the posts to rank in the serps.  Oddly only the categories rank.  The posts are crawled it seems - but seen as less important for a reason I don't understand.  Can anyone here help with this? See here for what i mean. I have had several wp sites rank well in the serps - and the posts do much better. Than the categories or archives - super odd. Thanks to all for help!

                    Blog comments - backlinks - question

                    Hi, I see that many good websites have backlinks from very good blogs/sites which are relative. What I noticed that everyone use their real name or generic name in comments. They do not use the keyword for the name. So later they get backlinks with anchor text of their names... So, my question is this good technique ? Do I have any benefits from these backlinks for my website ? With such a technique, whether it is enough just to leave your real name or may I periodically put the keyword for the name ? Thank you

                    Should pages of old news articles be indexed?

                    My website published about 3 news articles a day and is set up so that old news articles can be accessed through a "back" button with articles going to page 2 then page 3 then page 4, etc... as new articles push them down.  The pages include a link to the article and a short snippet. I was thinking I would want Google to index the first 3 pages of articles, but after that the pages are not worthwhile.  Could these pages harm me and should they be noindexed and/or added as a canonical URL to the main news page - or is leaving them as is fine because they are so deep into the site that Google won't see them, but I also won't be penalized for having week content? Thanks for the help!

                    Should I Allow Blog Tag Pages to be Indexed?

                    I have a wordpress blog with settings currently set so that Google does not index tag pages. Is this a best practice that avoids duplicate content or am I hurting the site by taking eligible pages out of the index?
