October 23, 2014 by Beth Anne Schwamberger 3 Comments

How to Guest Post Well - 10 Best Practices for Getting Your Guest Post Accepted, Gaining New Readers, and Building Relationships #blogging #guestposting

My secret weapon for landing more guest posts? The guest post planner pages found within our Brilliant Business Planner. I keep track of who I pitched, when, my pitch ideas, when the post is due, and make sure I promote it well.

Guest posting is consistently touted as one of the best ways to grow your blog.  Yet so many of us put the whole thing off.
(Do you see me raising my hand right now?  I'm so guilty!)  

Building off of Amy Lynn's killer advice in episode 50, I'll share a few more best practices so there are no more excuses.

P.S.  I used these exact tips to land a guest post on the Etsy blog.  How cool is that?!

You'll have to press play to hear the tip that will save you loads of time.

Pin this post so you don't forget to keep guest posting as a top priority.  We can't wait to hear about the new doors it opens for you!
