Just come across this and thought I would share it, looks good from the outside but not yet signed up, going to though in the next hour or so.
Anyway looks good - http://tracker.myblogguest.com/

As a PRO MyBlogGuest user, you already have access to the link tracker (that's the update you are getting if any of your guest posts get removed or any of your links gets deleted), so since you are using MBG, MBG tracker would be extra
We are working on the quality issue and haven't noticed that many poor-quality articles. I personally track ALL rejections (I get an email each time the publisher rejects the article) and I don't recall seeing that many rejections either... Could you please report any time you receive a poor article?
About the blog quality, we have had lots of discussions in Private area about that and haven't still come to any good solution. Making another level of membership where only high-quality articles can go and only high-quality blogs can enter sounds like no problem to me. But I've heard some serious concerns about that being a closed network Google might once consider as breaking the rules. Right now our doors are open to everyone, and yes, it is much more natural this way

I agree with what your say but with anything automated your going to be sacrificing some quality, against doing it the manual way of contacting the owner through the blog.
I personally think it's a great service BUT could be made greater.
This is how it is from the other side of the fence Matt.
I produce 500 words of unique content for each article, I know they are good because when they do get on a blog with good social following they achieve levels of social sharing above other articles.
But because I think my articles are good I only work with blogs with PR3+ and usually look for a DA/PA 35+. Now these types of blogs are getting close to being big enough they don't need to be on a guest blogging network, so you end up with 5 offers 4 are PR 0/2 DA/PA 17+ and the other is good.
I would be more then happy to pay double for a Premium area where articles are checked manually and only blogs of PR3+ DA/PA 30+ exist, I also think if the user is not active within a month they get bumped out of the area until they login again.
That would be sweet.

Just as a side note, I would be careful with myblogguest. I have about 92 sites we update with their articles and allow others to post on our sites. We have been getting very low quality posts lately. So bad that we rejected 19 articles today alone. I feel that they aren't analyzing the content as good anymore. Maybe they are getting understaffed and not analyzing as much as they should.
This could jeopardize the quality of sites that your writing great articles for which in the long run could hurt your site if you have 50 links pointing in from penalized domains. I am just thinking long term, this wouldn't happen overnight of course, but if they don't start passing better quality through their it won't end good for them.
If they keep passing content like they did today to my sites, I see BMR ban happening all over again from Google.
Sure guest posts are ethical, but if the sites aren't quality which ='s high quality posts and interesting content, then it's not a quality site, which means you don't have a quality link.
Have a great night.

How many backlinks should I incluede in guest blog?
Hello MOZ I really need some help here and would love your advice! I have access to a fantastic PBN through my sister's work colleague who is an experienced marketing director. The PBN is relative to my industry and are all DA 50+ My sister is a copywriter and is putting content together around 500-600 words long. My questions are: How many backlinks should she include in each guest blog post? Are 2 too many? Should the anchor text keywords be exact to the products I am selling? Tips/Advice going forward with the project? Thank you!

Loads of Blog Search Results showing up in SERPs - What's the best way to remove?
Our client has a good number of results showing up in SERPs that are search results pages produced by Blog posts. Unfortunately all these results have exactly the same Title tag and it has nothing to do with the blog content which means they are unlikely to help us much. We can’t create a 301 redirect because there is no page to redirect. There is no blog page we can re=canonical to either. The content on these pages is a short list of blog posts by each author. They are not true “Author” pages that would have a URL structure like this: your company.com/author/joeblow Our plan is to use GWMT's URL removal tool to request remove of these pages. (and then try to stop new results from being created) We are doing this to get low-value content out of the SERP. Is there a better way to remove these search results? Any drawback in removing them in GWMTs? Thanks.

Blog for content
Noob here so be gentle... We have a blog on our homepage that we're using for content/SEO purposes. Does this content rank as highly as it would if it were a simple HTML page as opposed to a blogspot or wordpress from our page? In other words, are we getting as much content cred in this way as we would if blogspot wasn't affiliated? http://greatmats.blogspot.com/

If you were guest blogging would you prefer a link or revenue share
I am looking at ideas at the moment, we have been getting a large number of guest bloggers wanting to write for our site but i have to say we are turning down around 90% of the articles as they are low quality. So i am just wondering, to attract high quality articles, should we carry on offering a link in the articles or offer them revenue share by asking for their google adsense code and putting it somewhere on the page. If we did offer this, how would we impliment this, we work on a joomla website and have read about rev share but not sure how we do this correctly. Would like to know people's thoughts on this

Does Google penalize for duplicate blog posts?
Occasionally, I get asked by another blogger if they can repost (in full) one of our blog posts on their blog as a guest post. I've always been under the impression that Google penalizes this type of behavior, but I haven't seen any evidence. Is this true?
