Looking for a Search Tool to Help with Finding Potential Networking Opportunities.
-
I am looking for a more effective way to network with similar websites to mine in order to try and do some guest posting or networking and I was wondering if anyone had some good tools for locating those potential sites? Thanks.

You can use Twitter + FollowerWonk or Google (the search engine) + custom queries.
You can type things like these on Google to find potential guest posting opportunities:
"keyword" + "guest post"
"keyword" + "write for us"
"keyword" + "submit your post"
etc.You might be interested: http://findmyblogway.com/finding-guest-post-opportunities/ (discusses about some unique ways)

I have not found a great many services that can help network people in the manner your looking for and have often thought about it being a good business idea.
However, I find twitter to still be one of the most powerful, the people that matter are on there you are able to search for them and you are able to contact them and once you find one Twitter does a great job in recommending others. On a website you just have a contact form or a phone number that takes you to a call handler/receptionist most of the time which can be like hitting a brick wall.
I do not feel that enough people are using LinkedIn for that purpose to make it as effective but it is also worth a try.
But I am not aware of some independent OTHER service that is out there connecting people by industry.

How do I find links that link to several competitor sites?
I want to find linking pages that link to several of my competitors. Those are likely to be lists of tools I can also add my website to. My application is a dashboard tool/kanban board. So if I find a page linking both to say kanbannery.com and kanbanflow.com it will be likely to be a collection of links to kanban tools, ad my application can be relatively easy added. Magestic SEO has a "clique hunter" - is there anything similar in MOZ suite of tools?

Networking sites / paid links
A national networking company charges its members, say, a few of hundred pounds to become part of their network, which involves offline networking events and online in forums and a directory. All the links of the directory and forum sigs etc are all do-follow. While it's not just a directory, how beneficial a link is this likely to be? The site itself has a DA of 60 and a PR rank of 4. 1k likes on their cnnected FB page and 21 likes on the G+. At the networking meetings they tell new recruits that being a member gives them a very valuable backlink and everytime they participate in the forums they get another do follow backlink. Ive checked and they are dofollow. Is this likely to be a great value link?

We have written great content - how will people find it?
Hi We have allocated resources to write some great content (how to's, best practice, videos) etc which will benefit customers as they will find it a useful resource. We are using this not as a sales channel but as a trust and information resource to build a community It is currently located about 2 levels deep in our website, what are the best ways of getting people to find these articles on the web? I have placed some social sharing icons at the bottom of the page to Facebook and Twitter but are there other channels because at present the only way they will find this information as if they visit our website. Do we also need to be practive and distribute this content around the web perhaps as a guest writer? which raises duplicate content problems as it would also be on our website or is there a better approach?
