Blog Influencer's tool
-
Hi Mozzers,
Can you help me with something please. I need a tool (preferably free or low cost) to find a list of influencers (blog or some types of publication) in a particular marketplace. Step 2 would be to see if we can then syndicate content but I need to find them first.
Obviously there Google blog finder and general searches, I've used other tools in the past but a long time ago - what are people using now and what's the best?
Thanks

Hi Mark,
Good idea - I didn't think of the Twitter profiles - I'm a Pro Member so have full access to FW and all the tools.
Thanks for your help

Try Followerwonk.com, now part of the Moz empire. Even if you don't have a PRO account, you can use this tool to search Twitter bios.
So for example you can type "travel blogger" into the search field and it will show a list of people on Twitter who have words "travel" and "blogger" in their bios. These are sorted by followers, so you are likely to see the most influential first (there is also an option to sort by influence).
Click on "more options" and you can add filters. For example, you might want to find travel bloggers in the UK or the US.
A search that I like "Huffington Post travel" (replace it with your area of interest).
In my experience, most bloggers are active on Twitter, so this is a good de facto blogger search tool, and free.

Internet Business Promoter by Axandra is a great tool for finding bloggers. All you do is enter the keywords you're trying to rank for and it will scrape various search engines/websites that match the criteria you selected.
I think they even offer a free trial version of the program, I'd give this a try first. There's some other things you can do too, but it requires using multiple programs.
I, personally, find this to be a great link-building tool/resource for finding 'pillars of industry'.

Blog Content
I keep reading that a steady stream of new blogs from my site is a great way for getting inbound links to my site. My question is... Does the content of my blogs have to be relevant to my site? My site is www.marblerenovation.com. If the blog should stay relevant, I am finding it pretty hard to create engaging content around cleaning marble floors. Also, does anyone know of a good place to find bloggers to help create this content? Thanks in advance everyone Dave

Guest Blogging Question!
Hi, The anchor text link connected with an article used for guest blogging, say the anchor text has 3 words and the link is in the byline, do these 3 words need to be used within the article content? For example if the article is 500 words long and the anchor text from the link is not used at all in the article content will this have a massive negative effect against using the anchor text in the article a few times? Cheers

Should I Have No Index, No Follow On Blog Category & Tag Pages?
At some point in the past I read or was told that No Index, No Follow tags on category and tag pages were a good thing on a standard WordPress blog in order to prevent duplicate content issues. Is this still true or was it ever true?
