Any good site for Blog Submission (without any waiting/approval) ??
-
Is there any good blog submission site which does not have long waiting period before article is published and which allows followed link from blog?
I have a list of such blog submission sites but they all either need weeks delay till it gets approved or never gets approved.
So I would really appreciate If you can tell me some of such sites that you are aware of..

thanks mate!

thanks Nakul yeah I know things have really changed now. Its much more complex than before.
-
thanks Keri !
yeah I understand It takes time but most of the sites have strict policy that we can not put any other sites links and its making link building via blogs more and more difficult because of the huge number of spammers on web. And content marketing is future of SEO. So things are getting bit tough for SEOs I guess.

Hi Vikas,
That may be a tough one. I can speak from the other side of things. I don't submit guest posts, but I do review them for YouMoz so I get to see a lot of submissions from people wanting to post on the SEOmoz site.
You may have a difficult time finding a place that posts high-quality posts, allows followed links, and posts them quickly. The higher the quality blog, the more submissions there are to go through, and the more time it takes before something gets published.
At YouMoz, we try to not outright reject posts, but to spend time to help people craft a better post that will be a success on the blog. Some of our best authors are ones who had posts initially rejected, but were given suggestions for improvement. This does take time, and makes for a longer queue, but also makes for better posts.
When you are looking to submit a blog post to any site, I would highly recommend having the post reviewed by at least one other person before you submit, running your text through Word to look for spelling and grammar errors, making sure that all of the images you use are OK to use (you either have permission to use the copyrighted image, you've included proper attribution to a Creative Commons license, you developed the image yourself, etc.), and that you've followed all of the guidelines for the particular site to which you are submitting. Time spent upfront making a post can help reduce time spent in a review queue.

If it's great content, it might make more sense to keep it on your website. Some blog posting is okay, but too much of any one kind of links will only cause issues, both short term and long term. Think about Directory Links 5 years ago. Everybody got 500 Directory Submissions for $50 and so on, and those are the kinds of links people are getting Unnatural link warnings for.
So I'd recommend evaluating your link strategy and only build quality links, rather then faster links, instant approval links, focus on quality and user engagement vs quantity.
I hope this helps.

Hi Vikas,
Article submissions can be done but they require some strategy. If you are guest blogging you can use a site like myblogguest.com to find relevant niche related blogs that you can offer your articles to. This site is not free but can work in some niches.
You can post to squidoo.com ezines and other article sites but they don't hold the same value they used to. Read more.
Here is an effective method. Look for niche related blogs that are active and network within the niche. Once you can show a good amount of value by studying and innovating content, you will be able to post and earn real links.
Lastly my favorite method is to network**^** but place the articles on your own site. Gain bookmarks, Social media mentions, and the indexed content on your own domain.
Hope this helps.

Blog post outreach for backlinks
Hi all, My understanding of obtaining backlinks by way of blogpost outreach is that it's best to include several outbound links to related high domain websites within blog post copy (as well as a link to the website you're marketing, obviously) such as this post https://www.scoopearth.com/why-should-you-use-royalty-free-music-for-youtube-videos/ or this one https://small-bizsense.com/how-to-create-quality-content-for-your-business/. However, I've recently read a few articles that suggest that from a human perspective only having one clear link in the copy, such as this post https://www.clichemag.com/entertainment/movies/the-benefits-of-royalty-free-cinematic-music-for-your-videos/, increases the chance of the reader visiting the site in question. I guess the thinking is that if there's only one link to be clicked on it increases the chances of click-thru, as opposed to the reader possibly clicking on another external link that's only there because of current SEO advice. So is it best to follow SEO guidelines and include several outbound links within guest blog posts, or is it better to only have the one link to your client's site (to focus the readers attention on it)?

Backlinks from non-relevant site
There's a forum I used to participate in that allows you to include a link to your website in your signature block. I have over 500 posts in the forum so that provides a lot of backlinks to my website. However, I recently decided to remove my website link from my signature for two reasons: The forum is 95-99% dead. Hardly anyone uses it anymore. BTW, the website that houses the forum is still popular within is niche (articles, etc). Just the forum appears to be dead. The website and its forum really have no connection whatsoever to my business. I'm in a completely different niche. However, I have no idea if I've made the right decision. Will removing my signature and the backlinks hurt my site? Or will it help it since the other site really isn't related to mine? Thanks for any thoughts on this!

Reposting Blog posts on 3rd party sites
We have a few informational blog posts that are valuable to some readers. We have posted them in our blog but were contemplating posting them on 3rd party blogging websites such as Blogger, Squidoo, etc.. Ideally we would continue to maintain these accounts with multiple blog posts, but would all be reposts of the original blog. These are not half english blog posts just hoping to gain a better Google rank. They will provide value to the readers who might not be finding their way to our website directly. Is posting these blog posts on the 3rd party websites, linking back to the original article and maybe some products that are related to the specific document going to negatively affect our rankings due to the duplication of the content?

Reposting my articles on other blogs - good or bad?
Hi there! Our blog is full of really good articles on consumer finance topics. Recently we established contact with some local media and even government agencies who said they will be happy to repost our articles on their sites. Question: is it ok to repost our articles as they are and link back to us, or shall we rewrite them to make them 100% original? The media doesn't insist on original content, but I'd like to get SEO benefit from it (the sites are really good). If original content gives us more SEO value, we're happy to do it Please advise. P.S. Using rel=canonicals is not an option (it's government websites and some old school media - they are very not tech savvy).

What benefit does a site with a low DA get from someone guest posting who links to a site with a high DA?
I'm relatively new to link building and although this may be an obvious question I can't seem to find an answer anywhere even after searching Google.

Mass article submission
I'm quite new to SEO and initially I was learning from the wrong sources who suggested to submit content to as many article directories as possible and the same with website submission to other web directories. Most of the directories they had suggested were low quality, with the only quality ones being made for a niche, which was not my websites niche. They also recommended other bad on-page techniques such as spinning/scraping other websites content - not that I followed this method anyway. Anyway, after educating myself more on how SEO and the search engines themselves work, I know that this is not the best practice. My website initially benefited from having all of these links but now has dropped off ranking for the keyword entirely. It still ranks on the front page for other long tail keywords and the actual domain name, but not the primary keywords. I'm worried that Google has in some way blacklisted my website for the main keywords, which were also used in all of these articles, but not the others if that's possible. At the moment I'm restructuring my website by increasing the amount of content and especially the quality of content so that I can submit it to better directories such as DMOZ and other niche specific directories and websites. Will Google look past the links from the low quality directories if my website is included in DMOZ and other high quality, niche specific directories? Is it better to just abandon my current website and start fresh? Thanks for any answers and/or advice in advance.

Blog commenting
Is this still a good way of getting backlinks? I do not plan on making it my only method. Most of my backlinking is done through content creation, press releases, and guest blogging. But looking for some variety in there that can be done quicker. Is it even worth the time or are the links too spammy now? If I did I would actually hand build the links and comment to the article.

DMOZ submission
Has anyone had any experience submitting to DMOZ and waiting times. The category i've submitted to has only a few links (http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/England/London/Westminster/Arts_and_Entertainment/) Yet I submitted the site (www.capitalalist.com) over a month ago! Can anyone give examples of waiting times, or a way to perhaps get some feedback from DMOZ? Thanks in advance as always...
