One of the best ways to boost your credibility in your industry and to help you create more valuable content on your blog is to find and use guest bloggers.
It makes you and your blog look like a larger business and it provides your readers with additional expert insight while boosting the value of your blog. It also saves you time because you don’t have to write all the content! The trick, however, is to find good guest bloggers.
Here are a few ideas to help you get started:
Network online with industry experts. One great way to find quality guest bloggers is to participate in your industry. Find social networking sites and connect with other industry experts then invite them to write for you.
Become active in your blogging community. And that doesn’t just mean connecting with your competition. Connect with people who are complimentary to your business. If you blog on romance writing for example, then a complimentary blogger might blog on writing technology.
When you make connections, approach the person about becoming a guest blogger. It’s generally to their advantage to be a guest blogger because it improves awareness of their blog and their name.
Simply put a button on your blog or a link to contact you about becoming a guest blogger. This way, people who read your blog and are interested in blogging for you can simply send you an email.
Finally, if you’re really anxious for guest bloggers, consider simply asking or advertising for them. One great way, is to post a notice on industry forums or chat rooms asking for guest bloggers.
Whether you have one blog or ten, whether you’re working from home or you have a 9-5 job, time management is an important aspect of building a successful business and content is truly king! Guest blogging is a fantastic way to increase your content and effectively manage your time.
