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)?

Linking strategy between my own sites
Hi, I have one main site, let's call it food.com I also have 10 smaller sites, let's call them mexicanfood.com, indianfood.com, italianfood.com etc food.com is on its own separate dedicated server the 10 smaller sites are all on a shared IP in hostgator I don't want Google to think that I have created the 10 sites for only purpose of creating links to each other. So, would you recommend that all those 10 sites link to each other? or should there be no interlinking within those 10 same IP domains? What about linking from those 10 sites to my main site? How should I structure my own backlinks not to get penalized by Google ?

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...

Link Directories - Good or bad?
I've just done a search on open site explorer for a competitors site that has is ranked number one. Most of their highest authority backlinks are from link directories. I just read an article on here saying to stay away from directories that state things like 'seo friendly directory'. Many of my competitors links are from these kind of sites! Will it harm me to get links from such sites? It seems to be working for my competitors.... confused.com!

Blog commenting
I have been doing a little bit of testing in regards to blog commenting on high authority blogs that no follow comments. The comments have all been manual and added value to the blog. I have noticed quite a big jump in rankings for some keywords. I was wondering if anyone else has a view on the effectiveness of these links when combined with other link building methods?
