As a PRO MyBlogGuest user, you already have access to the link tracker (that's the update you are getting if any of your guest posts get removed or any of your links gets deleted), so since you are using MBG, MBG tracker would be extra
We are working on the quality issue and haven't noticed that many poor-quality articles. I personally track ALL rejections (I get an email each time the publisher rejects the article) and I don't recall seeing that many rejections either... Could you please report any time you receive a poor article?
About the blog quality, we have had lots of discussions in Private area about that and haven't still come to any good solution. Making another level of membership where only high-quality articles can go and only high-quality blogs can enter sounds like no problem to me. But I've heard some serious concerns about that being a closed network Google might once consider as breaking the rules. Right now our doors are open to everyone, and yes, it is much more natural this way

I agree with what your say but with anything automated your going to be sacrificing some quality, against doing it the manual way of contacting the owner through the blog.
I personally think it's a great service BUT could be made greater.
This is how it is from the other side of the fence Matt.
I produce 500 words of unique content for each article, I know they are good because when they do get on a blog with good social following they achieve levels of social sharing above other articles.
But because I think my articles are good I only work with blogs with PR3+ and usually look for a DA/PA 35+. Now these types of blogs are getting close to being big enough they don't need to be on a guest blogging network, so you end up with 5 offers 4 are PR 0/2 DA/PA 17+ and the other is good.
I would be more then happy to pay double for a Premium area where articles are checked manually and only blogs of PR3+ DA/PA 30+ exist, I also think if the user is not active within a month they get bumped out of the area until they login again.
That would be sweet.

Just as a side note, I would be careful with myblogguest. I have about 92 sites we update with their articles and allow others to post on our sites. We have been getting very low quality posts lately. So bad that we rejected 19 articles today alone. I feel that they aren't analyzing the content as good anymore. Maybe they are getting understaffed and not analyzing as much as they should.
This could jeopardize the quality of sites that your writing great articles for which in the long run could hurt your site if you have 50 links pointing in from penalized domains. I am just thinking long term, this wouldn't happen overnight of course, but if they don't start passing better quality through their it won't end good for them.
If they keep passing content like they did today to my sites, I see BMR ban happening all over again from Google.
Sure guest posts are ethical, but if the sites aren't quality which ='s high quality posts and interesting content, then it's not a quality site, which means you don't have a quality link.
Have a great night.

If my blog is on Wordpress, and I've installed the AMP plug-in, what do I need to do to get Google to start indexing all my posts as AMP pages?
If I add /amp to the end of any of my posts, I can see that the plug-in is working. It's been months since I installed it, though, and Google hasn't indexed any of the AMP pages. Am I missing a step?

Blog.website.com or website.com/blog
Hello, I have a question, in some moz guidelines you can read website.com/blog is better/more recommended than blog.website.com. But when you look at the domain authority you see no difference. blog.website.com gets exact the same domain authority as website.com. So can somebody explain why website.com/blog is really better than blog.website.com? Or is there no difference? Thank you verry much

At what point to stop comments on a blog? Do too many comments hurt the page?
I have a page that's ranking pretty well, and driving sales. That page is starting to get 10+ comments per day and is starting to get quite long. I was wondering if there is a point where I should disable the comments? My gut tells me that people interacting with the page, and Google seeing responses with the users SHOULD be a good thing not bad. But, then I think that a majority of the content of the page is no longer the article, but the comments. All the comments are good, non spammy and directly related to the topic. People just asking questions, etc. Good engagement, I should be happy right?

Does it do any damage to post my blogs for marketing community websites on my own website too?
I'm blogging quite often for one of the biggest marketing community's in the Netherlands and I want to post these blogs on our own company's weblog too. Our own blog is meant for sharing professional know how and boosting our identity as professional web agency. But off course, we also benefit from it SEO wise. If I post these blogs on our own weblog, I have to add a link to the original article on the marketing community website. So, my question is: will that cause any damage for our own website?

Opinions for the Long URL strings in WordPress Blogs.
We use Wordpress for our agency Blogs. The URL's are very long and the Moz does not like the long URL's. Should we use the stubby, short Wordpress URL's for each blog post? Is there a "Best Practice" for how one should use the Wordpress URL string?

Tagging Your Blog Posts - Useful?
Has anyone demonstrated measurable value from routinely tagging your posts? I am of the mindset that what is good for a user/reader is good for SEO and therefore the posts should be tagged. I wanted to see if anyone else had specific experience to the positive or negative.
