		<description>One of my pet peeves is using someone else&#039;s content as your own. I&#039;ve seen this a lot. Bloggers work hard on writing quality content and for that to be taken advantage of is wrong. I&#039;ve gained even more insight on guest posting from this topic. Thanks.</description>

		<description>How do you feel about the use of Name as anchor link?  Do you think that&#039;s an automatic disqualifier?  For example, I used the example &quot;MMA Shirt&quot; to log to www.FighterWarehouse.com because that is an important search word for that industry.  The &quot;keyword&quot; is irrelevant in this case, but the post isn&#039;t.  How valid is that method and is it really working for most people?</description>

		<description>I&#039;m always surprised when I see duplicate content and bloggers are shocked they&#039;re not getting more readers. Wouldn&#039;t you rather spend an extra hour or so writing fresh, innovative content that generates results? You can sales pitch and copy all you want, but that&#039;s not going to get you the traffic you&#039;re looking for long term. Educate, entertain, and innovate!</description>

		<description>I would have hoped this list is apparent to everyone, but I bet problogger must get a fair amount of garbage guest submissions.

If you&#039;re ripping content from another website, there are tools that automatically check and screen that out.

A guest post should be like any other post on a blog: unique and full of relevant information to the niche of visitors on the website.

I haven&#039;t guest-blogged yet as I&#039;m still building up a critical amount of posts in my online marketing blog, but I should be starting this month.

This information is obvious to me, but I&#039;m sure it will help others out.

Regards,
Omar</description>

		<description>Darren,
I couldn&#039;t have said it any better.  You hit the nail right on the head.  

We&#039;re actually looking for guest writers at ToMuse.com.  So if any of you are interested check out the &quot;Write For Us&quot; page and the requirements/benefits.</description>

		<description>@Darren,

Thanks for letting us know how to write a guest post on others&#039; blogs. Now I feel that I can write one for your blog. 

My only concern is when my blog is about trading stocks, how can my guest post be of relevant for your blog. Let me come up with some idea... There may be some case.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a newbie in doing guest posts and sincerely I had faced these situations before these. The most awkward thing is to use someone else contents and  the worst thing to do.

For me, I do guest posting to enhance my knowledge related to the nice of the site or blog that I submit my guest post and to save my budget. You don&#039;t have to pay anything to submit your guest post. If you don&#039;t have a health blog but you want to write an article about health, you can submit it to the existing health blog. Maybe it&#039;ll become a starter for you.

I believe that is a guest poster if sincere in writing and target to enhance his/her knowledge and experience, everyone will get benefits and happy with the works =)</description>

		<description>DK - the thing about guest posts is that they work best at building your profile and driving traffic if they&#039;re of a high standard. While it might seem odd to give your best stuff away it&#039;s certainly in your best interests to ensure that your guest posts are as good as what you do on your own blog. Personally I think your guest posts AND your posts on your own blog need to be as high as is possible - that&#039;s the ideal.</description>

		<description>The self promotion aspect is important to remember.  I&#039;ve had to turn some guest posts away because they were too promotional.  Those posts come across as a type of ad and not as much of a benefit to the readers.</description>

		<description>I know I have already asked a question which is something similar in your latest eHow sponsored post. 

Not to sound selfish or something - But I am sure many will have this question at the back of their minds - 

Suppose I have a great quality post - but doesnt it make sense that i publish that in my own blog which would attract more people....instead of guest writing for someone else which would get more ppl to their blog (which they already have!)? 

I agree that I dont want to give sub standard content when I write for someone else...but how does this help me...Do readers actually keep a note of the guest blogger and go to their original content later on? Wont they just read, forget and move on?

I have just started thinking on the lines of guest blogging and wanted to clarify. Sorry for the long query. Appreciate your help in this.</description>

		<description>I have a question regarding guest posting. To me, it seems like we’re the only one’s facing these issues, but I’m sure you’ve all felt that way at some point ;)

I think it’s awesome how people in other industries work together. Sites like yours, Copyblogger and the thousands of others that share information for the better of your readers and the industry you share.

Our industry however (Credit Repair) doesn’t seem to matured to that level of professionalism yet. While we think it’s a shady industry ourselves and anybody who reads our content can clearly see our message is different, I can’t even imagine a competitor wanting to be a guest blogger on our site (or allow us to be a guest on theirs).

We’d love to chat with a competitor, or somebody in a lateral market on our blog or theirs, about a topic that is useful-- but we’ve had every door slammed in our face. Most of them have a &quot;your my competition&quot; attitude and will not have any of it.

So my question is this: Was there a time when you faced this type of problem. If so how did you break the barriers? I’d really love to hear any experience or advice you may have on this subject..</description>

While we think it’s a shady industry ourselves and anybody who reads our content can clearly see our message is different, I can’t even imagine a competitor wanting to be a guest blogger on our site (or allow us to be a guest on theirs).</p>
