Selfgrowth.com - guest post opportunity or useless article site
-
Hello,
Is anyone familiar with if selfgrowth.com is safe to put an article on, or is it a useless article site?
Thanks.

It's certainly a safe site.
As with all article sites, its value has been diminished significantly. As far as article sites go, SelfGrowth is probably one of the better ones out there. I know when I've had a surplus of content on a previous site a few months back we used it. Rankings did increase, but it's not like we used SelfGrowth exclusively, so impossible to say there's correlation.
A link from there wouldn't likely hurt and might pass on a bit of 'link-juice', for lack of a better term. However, I'd only ever use it if you're overflowing with time-sensitive content that you don't have anywhere else to put. Other than that circumstance, I'd nearly always recommend doing some targeted outreach and getting your article onto a related blog in your niche.

More guest blogging penalties coming?
Does anyone foresee any future guest blogging penalties coming from google if the guest blogs are high quality blogs? I'm wondering if a future google update is going to hit even more sites that have used guest blogging as guest blogging continues to grow. I like guest blogging to drive traffic to my site but am scared to used it for fear of future updates in the algorithm. Thanks mozzers!

Guest Blogging Questions
Hi a few questions, 1. Is a anchor link in the body better then in the byline? 2. If 2 links are in the body will Google only count the first link? 3. Do you need a unique byline for each guest post, will having duplicate bylines not work as well as unique? Cheers

Safe to link to another site you own?
Hi mozzers, I have some external links on a resource page on my established site. I have a new site in the same niche with content that if linked to, would improve the resource page. If I linked to it using branded anchor text, would it be safe? My thoughts are yes...as long as it adds value and isnt keyword anchored. The sites are on different C class IPs Would welcome some thoughts Peter

Guest blogging on a "network" of sites. Good or BAD?
Hi guys! We have the opportunity to guest blog on a network of sites. Basically, this is a syndicated network of sports blogs (around 200) that all link to each other. They own and operate a blog for each major sports franchise. They each average a DA around 60, but almost all of their link equity comes from blogs they own and operate.... My question is this, should we take the opportunity to create editorial content with links back to our site. This would not be paid side or footer links, but real content relevant to their blog and our industry. On a side note; All of these site have a very decent DA and show up well in Google... Thanks for any advice!!!
