Guest Post Here
This week I wrote 2 guest posts, and it was really fun! I used to be one of those that thought “why would I give my content to someone else?”
There are many reasons to guest post, but I think to most important one is to work together with bloggers in your niche. Instead of always thinking of them as competition, we need to think of each other as colleagues.
Guest posting helps you in promoting your “brand” because their may be readers on that site that don’t know about you, even if you comment frequently on that site.
It also helps the site owner where you guest post because you will most likely promote your post as well and your readers may like that site as well.
When I wrote my Goals for 2010, I included writing guest posts because after 2 yrs of blogging, I had never done it. I had been interviewed and had articles written about me a few times, but I had never written for someone else unless I was hired to do so.
I found this week I actually enjoyed it though, so if you comment here regularly or if I read your blog, I may just shoot you an article in the future.
Are you Guest Posting?
If not you should be! If you would like to submit an article to me just fill out the contact form with your contact information (email) and topic and summary of your article (along with your web address so I can make sure your site is not a “bad neighborhood”).

Congratulations.
Where can I find your guest posts?
One is supposed to be published tomorrow at theinfopreneur.net and the other has to do with my fence products and is here: homeconstructionimprovement.com/black-vinyl-fence-products/
Read the one on fence products. I obviously don’t really know anything about the fence business but I do like your writing style.
Congratulations on that one.
I don’t normally read the other site but I’ll check out your post..
Hi Keith,
Congratulations on your guest posts. I agree, they’re a great idea and I look forward to reading your work over at James’ place.
As an aside, the mobile plugin you’re using is working great. I read your article and wrote this all from my phone. Massive improvement on the previous one
Glad to here the new mobile plugin is working better, what phone are you using?
Hi Keith!
You know I have seen a lot of guest posting going on and you are right it is a great way to get your brand and name out there infront of different people. I haven’t done it myself yet and I may someday.
There is such a community of bloggers out there I didn’t even realize until I started blogging. I started in July of 2009 and it has been a lot of fun and I have met a lot of great people so far along in my journey.
Thanks
Jim
I’m just getting my feet wet with blogging, but I do plan to try and do some guest posting in the future. Good luck with your guest posting.
I’ve got two guest posts in and they are fun to do and give you a lot more options and actually open up a whole new world for you.
Good post!
Guest posting is beneficial to both the guest blogger and the blog owner, where you want to guest post. The great benefit to the guest blogger if done effectively can drive decent amount of targeted traffic, new subscribers especially if you participate in the comments section, quality backlinks, then it can be a good sources building reputation and authority in your niche.
