When you are manually posting to blogs, how closely related does the content of the blog have to be to the website?
-
For instance, if the website is for a hotel, would it be acceptable to post on travel blogs?

Thanks!!

Yes, those are absolutely related. Not sure if I could come up with an example that would be more related than that.
A few examples that should help:
- Hotels and travel blogs are highly related.
- Hotels and cooking blogs are reasonably related.
- Hotels and business blogs might be somewhat related.
- Hotels and medical blogs are not very related.
Along with relevancy, I'd be worried about quality of the websites as well. Focus on posting guest posts on higher quality blogs with higher quality content, and you'll do better in the long run.

Few questions regarding onsite content?
1. How important is having the keywords you are targeting on the page? Lets say you rank position 10 for 'Plumbing Services London' but you don't actually use the word 'London' at all in the page copy, what kind of effect could you expect if you added the word in the content? Bit of a silly question really, I know it would have some effect but how important is it really? 2. What kind of effect would adding a blog with lets say 500 words of great content twice a week have on rankings? If you anchor text linked out of the copy would this alone help with ranking or is the reason for adding a blog to just use it as link bait to pull in more links, thus rankings are only effected when the blog starts to gain links?

Should infographic relate to the niche?
There's been a lot of talk about using good infographics for natural inbound links and I'm curious if they should be related to the niche or can be just about anything? I mean I know it makes no sense to have a fun page about cats if you're selling cooking dishes online but I want to hear some input. What do you think?
