We do our SEO in-house, and I don't have the time for blogger outreach. Does anyone know of a reputable place where I can submit our content to be pitched to relevant outlets for backlinks and US traffic?
I am not in it for someone creating our content; I write it myself and have a degree in the content I produce. I am looking for a place that gets REAL US traffic, not some P.B.N. sites or those where I can create accounts at a post myself. I want real traffic from relevant, reputable blogs or a place where I can have them use my content and find niche sites for me.

For reputable places to submit guest posts, consider well-established platforms and authoritative sites in your industry. These can provide valuable exposure and high-quality backlinks.

If you’re looking for a reputable place for guest posts, it’s essential to choose sites with high domain authority (DA) and an active audience relevant to your niche. Quality backlinks from trusted sources can really boost your SEO and drive targeted traffic.
I’d recommend checking out guest posting website list. We specialize in offering a curated list of high-DA guest posting sites across various niches, so you can secure impactful backlinks from credible sources. With Vefogix, you’ll find trustworthy platforms that help elevate your brand’s online presence effectively.

I totally get where you're coming from! It can be tough to find quality places for backlink outreach that actually drive real traffic. One option you could explore is HARO (Help a Reporter Out). It's a solid platform where journalists seek expert insights for their articles, and you can contribute your content, gaining backlinks from reputable outlets.
Also, have you considered reaching out to niche blogs directly in your industry? If you’re working with something like Expert Grill Parts or other specialized products, finding grilling or DIY bloggers who already have established audiences could be a great fit. They often appreciate high-quality content, especially if you’re an expert in your field.

@dotemna If you’re noticing that your website’s Domain Authority (DA) hasn’t changed despite your SEO efforts, it can be frustrating. But several factors might explain why this is happening. Let’s break down the reasons why your Domain Authority may not be increasing as expected:
- Time and Patience
DA updates take time: Domain Authority is calculated based on data from search engines and backlinks, which can take time to reflect in updated scores. Moz, the creator of DA, typically updates its index periodically, so any changes in your site’s SEO may take weeks or months to impact your score. - Quality vs. Quantity of Backlinks
Not all backlinks are equal: While building backlinks is crucial for increasing DA, it’s not just about the number of backlinks you have. The quality of these backlinks matters. If most of your backlinks come from low-authority or irrelevant sites, your Domain Authority won’t improve much.
Focus on acquiring high-quality backlinks from reputable, authoritative websites in your niche to see a meaningful impact on your DA. - Competitor Growth
Relative ranking matters: Domain Authority is a comparative metric, meaning your DA is partially influenced by how your competitors are performing. If other websites in your industry are also gaining high-quality backlinks or improving their SEO strategies, it may cause your DA to stagnate or increase more slowly.
Keep monitoring your competitors and ensure you’re keeping up with the latest SEO best practices.

These services specialize in outreach to relevant, high-quality blogs and niche sites, ensuring your content is placed on sites with genuine traffic and authority.
Since you already write your own content, they can handle the outreach while maintaining the quality and relevance you need for effective backlinking. Avoid PBNs and ensure the service focuses on authentic, well-established blogs.

If you're looking to gain genuine US traffic through reputable backlinks, I recommend exploring services that specialize in outreach and content placement for niche blogs, particularly in the gaming or simulation niche relevant to BitLife Zoo Expansion. Since you have expertise in your content, it's essential to partner with a service that respects that and focuses on real traffic, not P.B.N. or self-posting platforms. Look for outreach agencies that have a proven track record with US-based blogs and sites, ensuring your content is pitched to outlets that align with your target audience.
-
If you’re seeking backlinks or content placement opportunities from reputable sources, you might consider the following approach:
Review the Site’s Relevance: Ensure the site aligns with your niche and audience.
Contact the Site Directly: Reach out to the site owners or editors to inquire about content submission or collaboration opportunities.
Explore Content Partnerships: Look for guest post or content exchange opportunities that can drive relevant traffic and backlinks.
I have also applied these steps for our new site; you can see it here: https://drdrivingapk.net/.

I would recommend Medium and LinkedIn. I'm just now developing a community on Medium, and there really are live users there. If your content is really high quality and gives value to users, I recommend posting there. Please send me a link when you post, it will be interesting to read)
-
It would be best if you did it manually. don't rely on any automatic backlink providers. Search websites which have the same niche and email the website owners and pitch them. In this method, you will get real guest post sites.

Backlinks from The Sun, New Yor Post, etc...
Hello there, Some of my competitors have backlinks from very well-known newspaper websites like New York Post or The Sun. And it is really obvious that their backlinks are paid ones. On these news websites, they don't talk about ghost writing stuff or "partnership" for backlinks. They only write about banner advertising. So I was wondering how they can get a backlink from them.

Do some writers sell those backlinks somewhere else, under the table? Are they in contact with SEO agencies who paid them and if this is the case, does their "manager" know it? or does the company directly have partnerships with SEO agencies? Basically, how to get a backlink from the NY Post or The Sun ? Thanks0 -
Footer backlink for/to Web Design Agency
I read some old (10+ years) information on whether footer backlinks from the websites that design agencies build are seen as spammy and potentially cause a negative effect. We have over 150 websites that we have built over the last few years, all with sitewide footer backlinks back to our homepage (designed and managed by COMPANY NAME). Semrush flags some of the links as potential spammy links. What are the current thoughts on this type of footer backlink? Are we better to have 1 dofollow backlink and the rest of the website nofollow from each domain?

How to get rid of bad backlinks
So I noticed my rankings going down and spam score going up. So under my spam score there are over 100 links for different websites but ALL redirect to semalt.com I researched it and it says they hijacked a bunched of backlinks but don't know much more. How can I get rid of all those backlinks? I was told I could use the disavow tool but apparently that can hurt my ranking as well. The semalt.com site has no backlink to me - it looks like the pages that have/had my backlinks, they've redirected to them. For instance this is one of the links http://www.oxvideos.xyz/indianantyphotoxxx 422005fb-9240-40a4-8b65-f5b1f5079dea-image.png

Do you need a place to ditch bad links?
This is not a question as such, more a gift 🙂 I have registered a domain name to ditch bad links. For example, let's pretend I have a page on my site: www.mydomain.com/viagra and have never done any good SEO to promote this page, just a load of spammy directory links. The page used to rank for Viagra but then Google took manual action and I lost my ranking. Booo! Now the page is of no use to me until I get all these links removed and the manual action revoked. Even then, I'll be starting from scratch re-building good links to the page. Here's another option, simply re-direct the url to badlinksbin.com and say goodbye to all those spammy links. This bypasses the lengthy link removal process. Warning: I wouldn't recommend using this method if you have some good links in the mix, unless you can contact the site owners and get the links changed. And, don't forget to change the name of the url first so the Viagra page still exists on your site. As I've already set this up, I thought no harm sharing it and letting you guys use it too. I hope it helps some people.

Site Published Our Guest Post but Removed the Link Back
I recently developed a nice article for a career site and they agreed to publish it as a guest post. Once they published the article I noticed they had removed the link back to my site in the byline. What is a best way to approach this situation? Would you ask them to take down the article if they are unwilling to link back to your site?

Pros and Cons for Paying for Guest Posts?
While searching for outreach targets I came across a site that charges $100 to post your infographic with a review. I think this is similar to someone that says "Sure, I'll publish your guest post. First, please send me $100." I'm curious what others think about the practice of paying for guest posts? (It seems like it could easily be lumped in with paid links from Google's point of view).
