Any good site for Blog Submission (without any waiting/approval) ??
-
Is there any good blog submission site which does not have long waiting period before article is published and which allows followed link from blog?
I have a list of such blog submission sites but they all either need weeks delay till it gets approved or never gets approved.
So I would really appreciate If you can tell me some of such sites that you are aware of..

thanks mate!
-
thanks Nakul yeah I know things have really changed now. Its much more complex than before.
-
thanks Keri !
yeah I understand It takes time but most of the sites have strict policy that we can not put any other sites links and its making link building via blogs more and more difficult because of the huge number of spammers on web. And content marketing is future of SEO. So things are getting bit tough for SEOs I guess.

Hi Vikas,
That may be a tough one. I can speak from the other side of things. I don't submit guest posts, but I do review them for YouMoz so I get to see a lot of submissions from people wanting to post on the SEOmoz site.
You may have a difficult time finding a place that posts high-quality posts, allows followed links, and posts them quickly. The higher the quality blog, the more submissions there are to go through, and the more time it takes before something gets published.
At YouMoz, we try to not outright reject posts, but to spend time to help people craft a better post that will be a success on the blog. Some of our best authors are ones who had posts initially rejected, but were given suggestions for improvement. This does take time, and makes for a longer queue, but also makes for better posts.
When you are looking to submit a blog post to any site, I would highly recommend having the post reviewed by at least one other person before you submit, running your text through Word to look for spelling and grammar errors, making sure that all of the images you use are OK to use (you either have permission to use the copyrighted image, you've included proper attribution to a Creative Commons license, you developed the image yourself, etc.), and that you've followed all of the guidelines for the particular site to which you are submitting. Time spent upfront making a post can help reduce time spent in a review queue.

If it's great content, it might make more sense to keep it on your website. Some blog posting is okay, but too much of any one kind of links will only cause issues, both short term and long term. Think about Directory Links 5 years ago. Everybody got 500 Directory Submissions for $50 and so on, and those are the kinds of links people are getting Unnatural link warnings for.
So I'd recommend evaluating your link strategy and only build quality links, rather then faster links, instant approval links, focus on quality and user engagement vs quantity.
I hope this helps.

Hi Vikas,
Article submissions can be done but they require some strategy. If you are guest blogging you can use a site like myblogguest.com to find relevant niche related blogs that you can offer your articles to. This site is not free but can work in some niches.
You can post to squidoo.com ezines and other article sites but they don't hold the same value they used to. Read more.
Here is an effective method. Look for niche related blogs that are active and network within the niche. Once you can show a good amount of value by studying and innovating content, you will be able to post and earn real links.
Lastly my favorite method is to network**^** but place the articles on your own site. Gain bookmarks, Social media mentions, and the indexed content on your own domain.
Hope this helps.

Redirecting dofollow, high-domain-authority links from one site to another: good idea?
I have two sites that offer help for freelance writers. The first gets almost no search traffic and is very low priority for me. The second is my main priority and gets substantial search traffic. The low-priority site has a significant number of dofollow backlinks from high-domain-authority sites. Is it a good idea to 301 redirect these links to similar/related posts on my high-priority site? Would this potentially boost the SEO of my high-priority site? Thanks for any help!

Site URL called out but not clickable.
Hi - I'm after a bit of clarity; if my site URL is referenced in an article, but doesn't actually link through, does this still 'add value' to my seo efforts? Thanks, David

Separate blog url helpful?
I am managing a website for a hotel brokerage firm. The main URL is www.hotelassetsgroup.com but we started a new blog with the URL www.hotelsforsaleblog.com. We chose the blog URL because it has the words "hotels for sale." The main website has a tab at the top titled "Blog" which links to the blog URL. I am not sure if this is helping us or not because the main URL and blog URL are both competing for the name of the business "Hotel Assets Group." The blog has very little interlinking within the same URL because it mainly links to the main website. Should we combine the two URLs together and just have the blog URL be the same like- hotelassetsgroup.com/blog or something like that?

Blog commenting
Is this still a good way of getting backlinks? I do not plan on making it my only method. Most of my backlinking is done through content creation, press releases, and guest blogging. But looking for some variety in there that can be done quicker. Is it even worth the time or are the links too spammy now? If I did I would actually hand build the links and comment to the article.

Press Release Sites for Backlinks
OK, I read a previous thread about whether people found press release sites useful (specifically I am considering a reputable pay for release service). I understand the knock on press releases in this digital age (namely that no one reads them and arguably never did . . . ), but I was interested in moving the discussion in a different direction . . . Do press releases services really help a sites performance based on increased backlinking? Is there a SEO benefit to PR services? My company is a local print company. I've done quite a bit of research on my local competitors, and specifically for a couple products we would like to dominate. The good news is that it looks like the hurdle would not be terribly high to really take over the web presence with a well planned and executed website/SEO campaign. My inclination is that for a relatively small company like mine (dealing with relatively small competitors) it WOULD benefit me to pay for the sheer number of backlinks a PR program would generate. The monthly cost is frankly about the same as the cost of this site, which OF COURSE I get value from (hey moderator, how about a couple extra MOZ points for that one!) Specifically, I am looking at this for myself, but feel free to expand the question to the broader topic.

Are press release sites useful?
Many of my clients release newsletters and other peices of content qualify as press releases. I have been wondering if people find that the press release sites such as PRleap or PRweb are useful and worthwhile? If so, which do you feel is the best? Is there any research on this? I am planning to record my results from these sites and perhaps make a Youmoz post in the future.
