Are Guest Posts Meant For Backlinks Only?

Pretty good question, huh? The answer is no! Guest posts are not supposed to get backlinks, traffic, blah blah.. only, they are meant to get authority and trust from others.





It's simple, what you write is what you get. You write good content, Congo you get more trust and traffic.





Don't ever write a guest post just to get backlinks and traffic.





You know what? That's the truth!





If you're not getting a backlink from a guest post, then still do it!





I think that I've already answered the question. And that's it!





Now the question comes, how to deliver best guest posts?



Here are some guest posting tips and tricks which you can use to make a good impact for your blog through guest posts -

1- Be Niche Specific





Ok, tell me one thing, how would you feel if you go to a shoe shop and instead of seeing shoes you see chocolates(Yummy 😍)? If you're a chocolate lover(like me), you'll buy them but what If you're not?





Will it not look weird?





Yep! It will!





That's what happens in the blogging world too!





You're a sports niche blogger, and you're writing on food niche? How will your visitors feel? Will you able to write a detailed and informative article about it? I don't think so!





What I want to say is that always publish guest posts on topics, which you're good at!





That's what users will like.





blog which matches the topic.

For example - You'll write a football related post on sports niche blog, not on SEO blog. Right?





2- Use UpToDown Guest Posting Technique

Have you ever heard of this technique? No? Don't worry!





Ok, you've guest posted on many blogs, and you've made backlinks on your author profile. Do you it's not good? Do you know that Google can easily catch them?





Yes, that's the truth





Google is not a fool! By the power of AI, it knows everything about a post!





The motive is to make organic looking backlinks, not just to make them!





So, what does this technique is all about?





According to the name UpToDown, it can be clearly understood that backlinks position matters a lot in SEO!





Will a visitor click a link which is at the top of page or a link which is at the bottom? Top one!





Google treats in-paragraph links as organic. The technique of getting backlink through author box is old now!





And if you still make a backlink from author box, it's LIS(Link Influence Score) will be very less.





Must Read: Why You Should Write Big Posts Rather Than More





You can watch this video, made by Brian Dean -









He has talked about this method in this video.





I am using this technique since few days, and I'm getting pretty decent and high quality backlinks through it.





Check this post and see how I've interlink my best amp blogger templates article in it.









This link gave me a good LIS score backlink from my friend's blog.





Saw the style I used to link that article? See how I increased LIS score by using related keywords in the linked paragraph.





And that's how you need to interlink too!





Now you're asking What about my old guest posts?





It's simple, either comment on that guest post about changing the link or contact the admin to do so.





Here's the template which I use -





Hi, [Admin]! You're doing a great job in this blog and I'm pretty happy about it. Just wanted to inform you that I published a guest post on [Blog Name] recently at [Guest Post Link] and want you to add a link inside post having text - [Your Link Paragraph]. You can remove my profile link for this. It would be great if you do so. Thanks & Good Luck :)

3- Always Use Outbound Linking





the blog admin doesn't accept them.



They don't know the importance of using this technique.



And that's why they either remove OBL or change them to no follow attribute.



What you can do is that tell them the importance of OBLs or tell them to make them nofollow.



Yes, getting at least a nofollow link to authority blog might be useful for that post. But no guarantee!



Using OBL can help Google's AI-powered RankBrain algorithm to understand the context of the content.





4- Do Proper Keyword Research

The common problem which comes is thatThey don't know theWhat you can do is that tell them the importance of OBLs or tell them to make them nofollow.

You need to treat guest posts like your blog posts. Use the same techniques which you use to rank posts in your blog, and you'll get more impact through guest posts.





Do proper keyword research, SEO, etc. for all of your guest posts as the motive is to make our backlinks look organic, not inorganic.





There are many keyword research guides available, through which you can learn this technique.





There is a simple formula -





The More Traffic You Get On Guest Posts, The More On Your Backlinked Content!

5- Avoid Keyword Stuffing





Keyword Stuffing is one of the worst SEO practices.





And I think you must be aware of this.





Outbound links on keyword-stuffed posts can lead to penalizing of the blog!





Here is an example how a keyword-stuffed post looks like -









If you're doing this kind of practice on your blog post or even guest posts, immediately remove them!





Or you're gonna face many problems in future...





Google is now focusing mainly on the context of content and if you're doing this mistake, believe me, you're killing yourself! (This time I'm not joking 😜)





Using LSI keywords can help you solve this problem.

Here's how I used it for this post and you should also use on every post you write -









6- Always Reply To Comments





7- Use Images Whenever Required





you can keep visitors engaged on your guest posts by text? You think





Will you like reading a book without images?





This is what happens in blogging world also.





You write a post without images, boom you get 90+ bounce rate for that post.





And trust me, that isn't a good for that guest post and your linked content.





Ok, If you added your blog link say after 300 words and a visitor leaves the post after reading 250 words. Is that link worth? Do you think that link will give you traffic?





I've already used ten images till now, and the reason you're reading this line is that only!





I guarantee you should not have crossed reading 500 words of this post if it contained one or two images only.





Congo, You've already read 1.5k words!





Isn't that great?





And I know your struggle in reading these 1.5k words 😎





Ok, come to the above situation again. Will you get clicks on your links when a visitor is even not reaching it?





I don't think so :p





Adding images can help you make the guest post look more original, ultimately increasing the LIS of that link.
