        The best way to find the best opportunities is to read a ton of blogs in your industry and develop relationships with the most popular blogs in your niche by doing things like leaving thoughtful comments or engaging in conversations. The best guest post opportunities are on high authority sites that will send you significant traffic. If anyone can get an easy link from a site with minimal effort it probably has minimal SEO value. A good sign is if the articles on the site have a lot of social shares like Tweets, +1's, and Facebook Likes.

          With all of Google's reiterating lately about 'If you build content, links will come' I'd tread carefully here.  Better to create stellar, link worthy content that earns traffic on its own.  Plus, with all of the concern about passing page rank, many bloggers are moving toward nofollowing.

          Create awesome content, market cautiously, analyze what gets traffic and what doesn't.  Refine. Rinse. Repeat or Adjust accordingly to what your audience wants and needs.

          That said, myblogguest.com, is a community of guest bloggers featured by noneother than Moz, Search Engine Land and BlogHer.  Looks like it's kind of a 'dating site' for blog content.

          Good luck!

            Go for sites that have readers who are interested in your subject area. YouMoz is a great place for a case study about your marketing efforts, but submitting a post about how to close you swimming pool for the winter and what chemicals to use will get your submission deleted and your account banned -- even if it's a great post that gives information that's really helpful and has relevant links.  You're looking for a place where your content is a good match for the site.

                Guest Blogging Question? How many links in an article?

                I am being offered by a blog to have more than 5 links in an article that points directly to our money sites. The blog is in the same niche. This is the first time i am being offered more than 2-3 links in an article. Should i do it? How many links should be in an article so not to be penalized by Google? Does it look unnatural to have more links in an article that points to the same site but different pages? Thanks

                How can I find all the outbound links from a website domain?

                I want to find all the outbound links (basically whatever comes in <a>tag) from a domain (say www.abc.com) as well as all the subdomains under it (say abc.com/a etc). Open Site Explorer provides the inbound links from a website but does not provide any functionality to get all the outbound links from a website. Is it possible to do?</a> <a>Thanks in advance.

                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.

                We are trying to find the best service to use to syndicate our articles. There are so many services to pick from. Our articles are from 500-600 words and are well written.  Can someone pass on a referral.

                Best way to remove unwanted links

                Hello, The site I work with has a number of unwanted, unrealted and just generally spammy sites linking to our site.  What is the best way to ask them to remove the links (formal notice asking to remove or more of a "hey, can you get remove this for us as a favor" tone)?  Do you have any tips for getting rid of these links? Thank you!

                How can I verify who links to me?

                I need to verify all the inbound links I have coming in to my site.  I've tried using OSE but have been told it does not scrape many smaller sites so cannot be sure of it's accuracy (especially since when I ran it, it returned a small % of the link i know are out there). Is there a way to do this in Analytics?  Or another way? Thanks
