Guest blogging company - yay or nay?
-
I'm considering working with a guest blogging company. The quality of the writing seems to be decent / not spammy. The types of sites they're guest blogging on are...

I know these are fairly generic blogs. Is there any chance of a manipulative link penalty with these types of sites?
Thanks!

Hey Joshua -
I'm personally fine with those sites as long as they are mixed in with more traditional, industry related guest blog posts.
I've used a guest blog posting company called guestblogposter.com and have been pretty happy with the results. They get a nice range of guest blog posts and the price is pretty reasonable.

definitely not!. I use MBG and now and again I will allow a guest post to be published on the globalgoodgroup it's a PR4 isn't it and has okay mozrank. I know they look like article directories but they are not. It's unique content and they won't allow people just to submit crap!
However, industry related blog posts through outreach is better? but takes time and a budget
kind regards
Neil

http://womansonlineblog.org I have already tried emailing a hundred or so with a manual link request - with zero outcome. Hardly surprising when you consider the types of sites they are. I've had a quote for a link removal service, but I'm not sure if it's wise to pay someone to do this work - not sure what resources/tools they would have above and beyond what I can access and there could be increased risk. Any advice?0 -

How to do SEO for famous fortune 500 companies
Hello SEOmoz, I have a question to you guys. How typically SEO should be done to fortune 500 comnpanies who are very much famous offline. The problem I see is any links built gets attention and media can make a big deal out of it. For eg: The recent JCPenney SEO issue. Though their paid links got them penalized, other traditional methods can also not fit their stratgy. Here are the traditional methods and how it can not be applied to them. Commenting on blogs - Well, it is reputation here. If some one sees a link on blog comments, it might be fishy and can be named as blog spammers. Forum marketing - Same here. The reputation of clients can go down. Paid post / Paid links - Again risky Please suggest how to build link for type of famous clients. Please do not give stratgic level of advice, but be more specific in your answer. For eg: Do this kind of link building and don't do y. etc., Looking forward for ur answers. Thanks
