How To Create An Effective Guest Post ?

How to create an effective guest post ?
Before discussing about the steps to create an effective guest post lets first discuss the term guest post.

"Guest posts are the posts that we do on others blog instead of publishing it on our own blog."

Guest posting is the best way of getting quality backlinks for your blog or website. Once you have created enough posts for your blog then try to promote it by guest posting on other blogs. Guest posts not only give you backlinks but they also shows your online presence. Guest posts helps you to achieve a good Google page rank and also generates some traffic for your blog or website.

Creating a guest post is not a hard thing to do but the problem comes when we submit it to high traffic blogs. The owner of high traffic blogs are very choosy, they select only the best articles to publish on their blogs. So while creating a guest post for high traffic blog, you need to consider various things. In this post i will describe you some effective ways that can help you in creating a good high quality guest post that can be easily approved by the high traffic blogs.

Read the guidelines carefully:

The first thing you need to consider is reading the guest post guidelines carefully on the blog in which you are going to submit your post. Read each and every guideline and understand for which type of content he/she is looking. After understanding the requirements you can think about posting a content that is suitable for that blog.

Understand the theme of Blog:

Now the second thing is understanding the theme of blog on which you are going to submit your guest post. You can do this by reading some articles of that blog. By reading the articles you can notice his/her style of writing, which type of image he/she posts, whether he/she uses large or small captions for images, length of the posts etc.

Do some research before creating a guest post:

This is the third thing you need to consider before creating an actual guest post. Before creating a post devote your some time in doing research about the content you are going to write because you have to post something different that is not easily available and which makes you different than other guest posters.

Create a Unique Post:

Now, after understanding the theme and requirements, you can create a good post with unique content. You can create a unique post by creating a post that is not easily available and is different from other posts available online. Always try to create a guest post that is divided in to small paragraphs with headings, subheadings and sub-subheadings. Also try to create a medium size post with at least 700 to 1500 words and always read your article twice for grammatical errors before submitting it.

Article must be of at least 700 words:

As i already mentioned, always try to post a medium size article which contains at least 700 words. If you post an article with less than 700 words then it would be difficult for your article to be approved by the high traffic blogs.

Provide some good images and graphs with your article:

After creating your post, try to make it look attractive and for this you can use some high quality images, graphs and videos related to your article. Submit these files along with your article so that he/she can understand that you have done some effective research for creating a guest post.

Do not put more than 3 backlinks:

Yes, do not put more than three links in an article and also try that all links are for a single site or blog otherwise they may consider that you are writing for someone or an organization that builds backlinks for their customers.

Write a short and crisp intro about yourself: 

Now the last thing write a good, short and crisp introduction about yourself in About Author section and try not to put more than one link in that section until it is offered by the owner of the blog to which you are submitting your guest post.
