High Quality Guest Blog Swapping
-
I have tried checking out a few of the big guest blogging sites out there but every time I create a killer article the site that offers to publish it is normally some suspiciously spammy side with a low Moz score.
Does anyone know any sites where guest bloggers can link up to swap high quality blog posts. Maybe one that requires some filtering of poor quality host blogs?

Thanks for the advice guys.
I am just putting together a list of sites that I want to approach. I sent out a few test emails last night so hopefully should get some replies today!

This is (unfortunately) a big issue with blog sites. How are you attempting to find sites to publish your content? When we first started searching for blogs, we would look for the top blogs in our niche on the SERPs. We would Google terms like "top HR blogs" or "best HR blog" and then check out the results. If they are a good blog, they are going to rank well in the SERPs, so they are fairly easy to find. You can also specify your search by adding modifiers such as intitle:keyword.
Most of these sites, however, are very high quality, and don't readily accept submissions. They are still worth trying though, because if you can submit content you get a powerful, trustworthy, relevant link back to your site. From my experience it seems that posting content under a high ranking strictly <your niche="">blog is better than posting under a <your niche="">category of a bigger, more general, all-purpose blog.</your></your>
If you don't find any sites you want to and are able to contribute to, you can also use resources such as BloggerLinkUp or HelpAReporter, which try to help connect the content publishers with the writers.

Yep, that can be an issue with the guest blogging sites. Anything that's easy has a tendency to get overrun with spammers. For the most part you'll have to sift through the offers just the way you're doing.
The long hand way is to research potential publishers before you write, see which ones may accept guest posts, and then tailor your post to be worthy of that blogger's acceptance on his or her blog.

My homepage is ranking great but my blog posts have dissappeared
It all happened a few weeks after Penguin 2.0 was released so I'm not sure if it is in any way related. My home page robt.info currently ranks really well for relevant key words like kids author. This has lead me to believe that 2.0 didn't negatively effect my site. I'm not in the business of anything remotely black hat related and purely focus on content. But, if you search for individual blog posts (which are extremely unique), they are nowhere to be seen. For example, one post I did was a story titled 'Fairy Floss For Brains'. Up until the second week of June I ranked extremely well for these really weird and unique blog posts. But now, they don't rank very well at all. Not even in top 100. They are indexed and in my sitemap. Can anyone please help me resolve this issue? Is there something I have done wrong that anyone can see? EDIT: I was able to utilise feedback from my question to resolve my issue. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP GUYS!

High DA Press Release Site
Hi Guys, So we have just received a message from Google confirming that we have an un-natural link profile. We are currently in the process of gathering all our links and going through them 1 by 1, at the moment I'm just stuck deciding if we should remove this link. It's a high profile PR site, its updated every day with quality news?? What do you guys think of this? Thanks, Scott
