Writing a guest post for your target audience can be a smart marketing move. When done right, it can help you increase your brand awareness, gain top search engine rankings, and drive extra traffic to your site. 

According to Social Marketing Writing, 62.96 percent of people regard blogs with multiple authors to be more credible. 

Each email must convince the website owner to read it and connect with you further to establish a mutually beneficial guest blogging relationship.

So, yes! Email outreach can be an art. Striking the right tone, crafting a compelling subject line, finding the right group of people to talk to — all of these elements can be daunting. 

Or, you may not have the time to design a professional email template for dozens of different circumstances in your guest post outreach work. These proven and tested emails are going to make it easy for you.

What is Guest Blogging?

Guest posting, often known as guest blogging, is an off-page SEO approach for acquiring backlinks. Here’s how the system works.

A blogger offers articles to another blog in exchange for a link to his own blog, website, or social media.

Typically, guest bloggers approach websites that’s similar to their niche and write for them to:

  • Boost brand awareness, and credibility.
  • Generate quality leads by attracting more traffic to their website.
  • Improve search engine authority with relevant backlinks.

Boost brand awareness, and credibility

Content marketing has largely replaced television advertising in recent years. As a result, the value of high-quality content will only rise with time. 

So, as long as Content Marketing keeps entertaining people – Guest Posting isn’t going to be dead (or at least not in the near future).

How to Find an Ideal Guest Post Opportunity?

If sales automation is the holy grail for sales teams, guest posts can boost the marketing teams’ efficiency in delivering results. 

When it comes to guest blogging, your biggest challenge is the unavailability of opportunities. Therefore, networking is super important.

How do you do it?

It’s easy. Regardless of what niche you are, search by using modifiers. We have listed down some of the most common ones below: 

  • keyword + guest blog/guest post
  • keyword + write for us
  • keyword + submit an article/submit a guest post
  • keyword + contribute guest post
  • keyword + contribute to our blog
  • keyword + accepting guest posts
  • keyword + become a guest blogger
  • keyword + guest blogging guidelines
  • keyword + contributor guidelines
  • keyword + guest post guidelines
  • keyword + send a tip
  • Keyword + contributor
  • keyword + guest post by
  • keyword + guest author

Alternatively, you may use the following search queries:

  • Site:domain.com “a guest contribution by”
  • Site:domain.com “guest post by”

You can also use various tools to find blogs in your niche and grow your email list, for example:

 

  • Content research tools: You may find guest blogs using sites like Buzzsumo; simply search for your topic keywords + “guest post” or “guest post by.” This will help you in identifying related blogs that accept guest contributions.
  • Social listening tools: While some of these tools let you search the entire web (blogs, social media, forums, and other content sources), others are simply focused on social media monitoring. Both strategies have the potential to produce excellent results.

So, What’s the Biggest Takeaway?

Email outreach is one of the most rewarding outreach tactics (and free if you’re starting out!). Guest post templates like these can save you a lot of time. But you cannot send out just one template to a few thousand websites and expect miraculous responses.

That’s where the need for customization chimes in. You need to send out personalized emails, or choose templates based on your end goals. Also, never come off desperate, or robotic. Keep in mind that whoever’s on the other end of the email is a real person!

Thank you for reading. If you think we have missed something, let us know in the comments.
