Do you know any website you can get in touch with bloggers?
-
I would like to get in touch with some good bloggers who would be happy to write a blog about my company services. Is there any website where is the list of blogs so you can get in touch with them or buy blog post on their blogs?
Thanks
Lukas

One thing that might help is our own Fresh Web Explorer tool. With the right combination of search operators you can identify those blogs (and bloggers) who are influencers in your industry, and reach out accordingly. I'd recommend watching these two videos on the tool:
Basic Operators in Fresh Web Explorer Advanced Operators in Fresh Web Explorer
The Help Hub article on FWE should be useful too, and I'd check out this Whiteboard Friday.
Bio search in Followerwonk could be very useful, too, as you can search every Twitter users for folks who have your industry keywords on their profiles. Add the word "blogger" and it could be even more useful!

You'll want to keep in mind search engine guidelines about paying with regards to any links that are followed, and with FTC guidelines (if US-based) about disclosing paid promotion.

Hi Lukas,
If it was easy then everyone would do it and it would return little to no value. Are you familiar with search operators? They can help refine your google search, in particular I was thinking you could use inurl: as most blogs exist in the subdirectory /blog/. So if your services were about fishing you could do a search like
inurl:/blog/ fishing
Install and turn on the Moz bar in chrome and you will see the DA score for each site in the results. This should cut down on the dead ends.
Good luck

Thank you but to looking for blogs one by one is a big job. So my question is if there is any website you know where is list or database of bloggers where you can search for them instead of using google search.

Hi Lukas,
This is a very broad question, one to which there is no simple answer. You need to ask yourself "what kind of a market would want my services?" and search for bloggers within that market that have a decent DA (although not an accurate measurement currently due to Moz updating it, should have it's accuracy returned in November).
Use a tool like Buzzstream to collect these blog sites and let the software dig for the contact info. From there reach out to the individual bloggers and see what they would like to write about your services. I would steer away from straight up offer money, but they might something in return, maybe a social push or some advice about the service you offer.
I hope that helps.

What to do with outdated and irrelevant content on a website?
Hi everyone, On our corporate website we have a blog where we publish articles which are directly related to our company (house heating systems and gas cylinders) and some articles which are completely irrelevant to our core business, but which might be of interest to our potential clients. Recently I've been told that it is not a good idea to include these not directly related posts to our core business, because Google might be somewhat confused at to what our core business is all about. I was advised to research this topic and think of completely removing blog posts that are irrelevant to our core business from our blog. By removing I mean completely removing pages and setting a 410 status to tell Google that it is not a 404 error but that these pages were intentionally removed. I would like to hear some independent advice from Moz community as to what I should do? Thank you very much in advance.

My website is struggling to receive traffic I think I have a serious error
Hi, My website would receive a lot of traffic and then I asked a SEO company who contacted me to do some work on the site. Since then, the site has dropped in the rankings and our traffic has dropped by like a lead balloon. Instead of receiving thousands of visitors, today we have received 10. I am finding that I have articles no longer in Google but they are in Yahoo. Here is an example of an article that was once popular https://www.in2town.co.uk/travel-advice/how-to-save-money-booking-a-holiday-through-a-travel-agent/ I have tried everything and now I do not know where to turn. I am not sure what they have done but everything has now failed. We have not been penalized and our hosting company have said they cannot find anything wrong. Due to this problem we have stopped writing articles and have spent all our time trying to work out what has gone wrong. If anyone can give me advice and point me in the right direction then I would be in your debt.

Community Discussion: Can 10x content be short-form content?
In his (intentionally very short) post on Tuesday, Rand makes the case that long-form content isn't necessarily great content: "Rather than applying a tactic like long-form content universally or setting length as the bar (or even a metric) for greatness, we instead match our content to our audience's needs and our business/personal goals. 700 more words will not help you reach your goals any more than 7 more words. Create content that helps people. Do it efficiently. Never write an ultimate guide where a single image could more powerfully convey the same value. Trust me; your audience and your bottom line will thank you." I think this is something we all struggle with as online marketers, in one way or another. As someone who casually consumes online content on a regular basis, this also resonates with me on a personal level. I'm curious, what are your hesitations with focusing on shorter-form content that packs a wallop, and what excites you about it? Can you think of any examples of content you've come across that you consider 10x short-form content?

How to encourage guest bloggers to link back
Hi, we have just started to allow guest bloggers on our site www.in2town.co.uk where we offer them two links within the articles, but what we would really like to do is to encourage them to link back to their articles. I am trying to find information on how we can encourage guest bloggers to link back and would love to hear your thoughts.

How does one write different pages of their website that are very similar in nature with using too much duplicate content?
We are a service provider and we have different links on our website to each of our services. The problem is the content that we would have for each is very similar. How can I ensure that it is not deemed duplicate content and ranked poorly because of it. Thanks

Can I share share my content with other sites either as a individual post or RSS or will I be encourage duplicate content on the web and upset Google
Hi, I have a new site http://www.homeforbusiness.co.uk. I want to encourage traffic to the site by sharing some of my content with other related websites which have a higher PR ranking and traffic for a link to my site. Is this going to upset Google re-duplicate content and devalue my site and stop any organic rankings in the future? Equally some high PR sites which have a good synergy with mine such as http://thewomensbusinessclubs.com/ allow me to add my RSS feed with their blog network. Is this a good thing to do or not for the same reasons as above? Or can I only do the above my creating fresh content? Thanks, Elizabeth Conley

Different pages with very similar H1's - will I get a penalty?
I currently have text articles about various topics on my site - for this example say I have written about "Negative Reinforcement". This article is live over a month now and getting listed on the first google page with an added keyword which the article is specifically related to. Now I want to create an infographic related to the same topic "Negative Reinforcement" - but I want to call the page this infographic will go on "Negative Reinforcement Infographic" while the article is currently called just "Negative Reinforcement". Neither page will have duplicate content from each other. The article is 2,000+ words so I don't want to throw more into it by adding on the infographic and I want to specifically create the infographic as linkbait and on a stand alone page. I am curious if adding another page with such a similar title and H1 have any negative effect ("dilute" the strength of the other article), for example will google take having two different pages with such a similar heading as potential keyword stuffing and penalise the site?
