How to use MyBlogGuest.com
-
Hello,
We have a person who has a degree in the content area of our niche, and it's a wide niche area.
How do we contact people on MyBlogGuest.com and ask them what they would like our person to write about?
Do I private message them or get their contact off their website? What do I say to not be ignored?
Thanks.

If you are able to find out the companies that picked articles, that would be ideal.
We don't track articles that are being posted through the forum (people just send articles manually there), but we do track articles that get posted through the Articles Gallery.
To find the list of most active publishers (those who published most articles), go Search -> Site Search -> and sort by "Articles Posted"

Great Ann, Thank You!

Like I said, you may want to use our built-in messaging options because we have enhanced it with free features like follow-up and non-response reminders.

Hey Bob, please feel free to PM me for details. I'll just lay out the basics:
How do we contact people on MyBlogGuest.com and ask them what they would like our person to write about?
You can use the free forum to post your request. There's a "Looking for blog" forum where you can start a new thread listing your topics. There is also "Looking for guest" forum where you can go from thread to thread applying to those opps that seem relevant to you.
Do I private message them or get their contact off their website? What do I say to not be ignored?
I'd suggest our system (PMs) because you can set up a follow-up reminder there. This way you'll be able to keep an eye on those who never got back.
Please watch all videos our users made for others to use the system. They are all user-generated and thus reflect the real user experience.

If you are able to find out the companies that picked articles, that would be ideal. But to be honest, MGB is a bit hard to manage and filter.

This is a good question you should contact Ann Smarty from my guest blog, she also happens to be an SEOmoz user...

Ok. I guess my question is whether it would be quicker and get better results if we found companies on myblogguest.com that had previously selected articles and that had good metrics and contacted them directly and see what they needed before we write the article.
Or is it your experience that articles are selected fast if they are good?
Thanks.

You can generally pre-write an article and post an excerpt to the site. Individuals will come by and go to your niche/category and if they think it is a good article/excerpt they will contact you for the information. Its quite simple when you do it once or twice.

What tools/techniques you use to check if a domain has been penalized?
If we think to buy expired or otherwise dropped domains, what tools or techniques you would recommend to check if there has bad SEO history? We could of course, check with Google itself if the site is indexed and ranks, but I am asking if there is a particular tool out there that would provide more information if a website had been shady. Thanks so much, guys! Lily

Thoughts on using the disavow tool for removed links?
Our website has been penalized by Google for the past few months due to unnatural links. We have spent the past 2 months submitting link removal requests to the domain owners with success. However, the Google Webmaster Tools "links to site" has not updated the list. I understand that they update the list of links as they crawl the website, but it has been 6-8 weeks on a lot of them (mostly our biggest offenders). We attempted to send a reconsideration request anyways, hoping Google would see that even though it is still listed, the link isn't actually there. We received a response that it is still in violation, but I believe it is because the webmaster tools links have not updated and perhaps this is what they go off of. Would you recommend submitting these domains to the disavow tool even though our link has already been removed for the past 6-8 weeks? Or even just listing them with the "#" comment tag so they can see they had been removed? Or would you continue waiting for it to update? Of course, we would like the penalty removed as soon as possible and were concerned that the list hadn't removed these websites the past 6-8 weeks our link had been removed. Example: This domain shows we have 3,397 within this website. It was an affiliate that had this URL forwarding to our pages: http://www.binet.lv/go.pl?PID=49276714O2422 . This no longer forwards to our webpage and the affiliate has been expired, but the GWT still shows them at the top of the links list. I also noticed a lot of sites left the links up, but added the nofollow attribute. These are still coming up in the Links list and does not decipher between which do and do not have nofollow. Could the spammy sites with our links as nofollow still be hurting us? Thanks for any help and recommendations!

Guest Blog Etiquette & Re-using "Expired" Content
Hi everyone, There's two parts to this Q, which is why the title's sort of split in half. We wrote a guest blog post that we were really proud of, which took a good few hours of work. It went live about a month ago, but I just happened to notice recently that it had disappeared off the person's website - I now get a 404 error and I can't find it either using a 'site:' search in Google or via the site's own search tool. I've tried getting in touch with the webmaster, but he's no longer responding to my emails. I really don't know if a) it disappeared by accident (for whatever reason), or b) they purposefully wanted to remove it and now they're avoiding me. My two Q's: Do you think it's cheeky to re-use the content, by giving it to someone else? Or would you say it goes against guest blogging etiquette? It seems a shame to waste it, for it to disappear. If I were to re-use it, would there be any implications regarding Panda, given the fact that it was content that was once live (i.e. effectively 'duplicate', once upon a time), even if the 'original' content is no longer indexed by Google? Would it even be considered a duplicate if published again now? Many thanks in advance!

Backlink's using duplicate content in article directories
I've had a link build report of all the links an SEO company have got us but a simple search for some of the content in Google with phrase match brings up about 3 pages of the same content posted to different article sites. I think it is doing something but will it just be penalised over time?

Should I use Article Submitter software?
I've downloaded Article Demon a while ago and have been trying to use it all though it hasn't been as easy to use as I would have liked. I was just wondering what you guys feel about Article Submitting software, if it's useful or if it's a waste of time? Regards

I was looking for the best practice to use anchor tags...
Seomoz says NOT to use your anchor terms on other external pages as you will cannabilize your main page - this is news to me. Appreciate any input on this.

Brandpoint.com
We were recently made aware of brandpoint.com. They produce content and guarantee the content will be listed on a minimum of 600 websites that they have agreements with. This includes the LA times and others. Their agreements state that the content will be a maximum of 2 clicks from the homepage and will live for 1-2 years before getting archived. Does anyone know anything about this company and/or the overall strategy of achieving links on these highly trafficked/valued sites through articles? Will these links help us or is this similiar to sending out a press release on prweb where you get picked up by benzinga and other sites automatically and the value for the links isn't really there? Any insight you can provide about this company and or strategy would be most appreciated.
