Just come across this and thought I would share it, looks good from the outside but not yet signed up, going to though in the next hour or so.
Anyway looks good - http://tracker.myblogguest.com/

As a PRO MyBlogGuest user, you already have access to the link tracker (that's the update you are getting if any of your guest posts get removed or any of your links gets deleted), so since you are using MBG, MBG tracker would be extra
We are working on the quality issue and haven't noticed that many poor-quality articles. I personally track ALL rejections (I get an email each time the publisher rejects the article) and I don't recall seeing that many rejections either... Could you please report any time you receive a poor article?
About the blog quality, we have had lots of discussions in Private area about that and haven't still come to any good solution. Making another level of membership where only high-quality articles can go and only high-quality blogs can enter sounds like no problem to me. But I've heard some serious concerns about that being a closed network Google might once consider as breaking the rules. Right now our doors are open to everyone, and yes, it is much more natural this way

I agree with what your say but with anything automated your going to be sacrificing some quality, against doing it the manual way of contacting the owner through the blog.
I personally think it's a great service BUT could be made greater.
This is how it is from the other side of the fence Matt.
I produce 500 words of unique content for each article, I know they are good because when they do get on a blog with good social following they achieve levels of social sharing above other articles.
But because I think my articles are good I only work with blogs with PR3+ and usually look for a DA/PA 35+. Now these types of blogs are getting close to being big enough they don't need to be on a guest blogging network, so you end up with 5 offers 4 are PR 0/2 DA/PA 17+ and the other is good.
I would be more then happy to pay double for a Premium area where articles are checked manually and only blogs of PR3+ DA/PA 30+ exist, I also think if the user is not active within a month they get bumped out of the area until they login again.
That would be sweet.

Just as a side note, I would be careful with myblogguest. I have about 92 sites we update with their articles and allow others to post on our sites. We have been getting very low quality posts lately. So bad that we rejected 19 articles today alone. I feel that they aren't analyzing the content as good anymore. Maybe they are getting understaffed and not analyzing as much as they should.
This could jeopardize the quality of sites that your writing great articles for which in the long run could hurt your site if you have 50 links pointing in from penalized domains. I am just thinking long term, this wouldn't happen overnight of course, but if they don't start passing better quality through their it won't end good for them.
If they keep passing content like they did today to my sites, I see BMR ban happening all over again from Google.
Sure guest posts are ethical, but if the sites aren't quality which ='s high quality posts and interesting content, then it's not a quality site, which means you don't have a quality link.
Have a great night.

How many backlinks should I incluede in guest blog?
Hello MOZ I really need some help here and would love your advice! I have access to a fantastic PBN through my sister's work colleague who is an experienced marketing director. The PBN is relative to my industry and are all DA 50+ My sister is a copywriter and is putting content together around 500-600 words long. My questions are: How many backlinks should she include in each guest blog post? Are 2 too many? Should the anchor text keywords be exact to the products I am selling?

Blog Content if Google has stated it doesn't like your blog?
Hi guys, In the new 'mobile usability' tab in Webmaster Tools, Google has stated that our blog isn't offering a good experience for users. Something we already knew and I want to change, but I can't get the budget approved to complete the work. I was just wondering if you think Google isn't going to hold my content very high as a result. I want to produce more content on our blog around our valuable keywords in hope to improve our rankings, but if Google isn't holding our site in high regard I'm thinking there may not be much point in it. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks Brian

Is having two blogs bad?
I'm under the impression we should only have one blog, but the company I work for wants to have our original blogger site AND link it to a blog on our website. We're basically just duplicating content, which I know to be bad. Is there any benefit to using both? If not, (which I'm guessing there isn't) which one should we keep? Does google prefer we use blogger, instead of putting it on our company site? Do the links we get from blogger help for SEO more than just putting it on our site? Any advice would be appreciated. P.S. The Blogger account has been around longer, but it doesn't have substantial traffic. It gets about 200 pages vies a month, right now. However, the one on the website gets far less than that.

Is it better to have your blog open in a separate window?
I've set up a blog on one of my websites, however it doesn't open in a separate window. I know from looking at other blogs that they usually open in separate windows. Is that good practice? Will it make any difference to your SEO performance?

Corporate blog
We are starting a corporate blog and were discussing the best place to put it in terms of the URL. Would http://blog.companyabc.com be OK, or is another structure better? Like http://www.companyabc.com/blogtitle/?
