How To Guest Blog Like A Pro

Guest-blogging is a brilliant way to get publicity for your biz. It’s something I’ve been working on with a lot of my clients recently, who have had some fantastic results getting published on various blogging platforms.

Why’s it so great?

It allows you to:

  • position yourself as an authority
  • show off your expertise
  • reach new audiences
  • grow your email list
  • raise your profile
  • gain kudos and credibility by being able to add to your ‘As seen in…’ logo collection

But how do you do it well?

Here are some tips from the pros to help you out…

I love this post by Melyssa Griffin of the Nectar Collective which tells you 17 things you should do to every blog post before and after you hit publish – most of these tips can be used for guest blogging too.

Finally, want to maximise the opportunity to use the guest post to build your list?
