Guest blogging tips needed!

[activitysuper]

Hi,

I'm about to start guest blogging for the first time, I have a particular keyword I want to push up, it currently sits page 2, position 1 and I would like to push this up into the top 5 results.

The 5 results I need to jump past also happen to be my main competitors, but I don't think they are activity link building for this keyword as url's are not SEO friendly (containing query strings), meta descriptions don't have the keyword word exact.

So the solutions is link building with anchor text links from relevant, auth websites.

The method I want to use to achieve this is guest blogging but as I am just starting out on the guest blogging front does anyone have any tips on how to find good blogs which will help?

I found a website called myblogguest.com but the blogs on there dont seem that great, I have been doing a few queries in Google to try and find them instead such as;

"write for us" keyword

then researching the blogs with the SEOMOZ tools.

Cheers

Have you tried running your target keywords through the SEOMoz 'Juicy Link Finder' tool?

This will most likely drum up some prospects for you to approach about guest blogging spots.

For more advanced searches have a look at the Competitive Link Research Tool and Link Acquisition Assistant.

Good luck!
