Link Building Question

[Vegitt]

Hi,

I have a 2 month old blog with me, i have submitted a few press releases for the start, later in these 2 months, i got about 40 guest posts, which i've written and submitted at myblogguest site. My niche is in health. Currently my serps are at 16th page which is not a good position. I want to do more link building, but at myblogguest, no one are interested in my niche and don't want to publish content related to my niche, so it becoming hard for me to find guest blogs related to my niche. But i want to get more links in order for my blog to rank well. Is it ok if i write guest posts in other niches as well like technology and put a link in author's resource box? Does it become useful? please help as i find no other sources for my link building task, i tried researching for guest blogs in google also, but i don't find any related to my niche. Seems like, i cannot go further with my link building. Please help me.

Thanks
Dheer

I would comment here that it depends on the blog as to whether it looks natural to have the link drop there. If you submitted a long, detailed post that was a case study of how you got rankings, complete with screen shots of analytics, details of what you did, your successes, your failures, analysis of what you would do different next time -- you might be able to get that link. If you submitted a post that was generic reworded information from a similar post with nothing new, you wouldn't get the link or the post approved at many sites.

Also, you might ask yourself would you find it natural to read about hemorrhoids on a technology blog? I wouldn't, and I feel many editors at technology blogs that accept posts also would not.

Ya, i read the above article, But can  you clarify one thing, can i guest blog on other niches as well, like travel, iphone, computers etc niches, as currently i am on a health niche, but no blogs are not interested in my niche posting.

According to the above link, i cannot fulfill that post? So how would i get rankings?

You can write content on other niche but in author signature you can link back to your website. Your approach towards content matters. For example: You can write for seo blog with Title "How I got top 20 ranking in just 2 month for my blog ?"  In this blogpost, you can mention your blogs URL. Its 100% natural so you will get benefit. Hope you understand my point.

Hi, Thanks for the quick reply, i have done enough social media optimization also, And in the above list from technorati, yes i've contacted many accepts only content related to weight loss, but mine is related to hemorrhoids, so it is hard for me to find a blog that accpets guest blogs. Should i go for writing for other niche blogs aswell? Please let me know.

Hi Dheeraj,

Have you contacted all this blogs : http://technorati.com/blogs/directory/living/health/

One more thing, why you are only focusing on "guest blogging" ?

What about social media ? What about your blog optimization ? Hows your blog structure ?
