New Link Tracker from My Blog Guest
-
Hi,
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.

Duplicate external links?
I have been guest posting at a variety of reputable blogs in my niche. I generally write once or twice a month and have a bio link with a link to my blog. I'm wondering if multiple links from the same domain (but different pages) helps, or if there are some diminishing returns here. Should I only be writing one post for them? Of course, there are other non-SEO benefits too, because these are reputable sites. But I'm wondering how this helps my SEO? Thanks in advance!

Blog Posts Not Getting Indexed by SERP's
Our blog posts are typically indexed rather quickly, sometimes within 10 minutes or so. Lately it seems like it is taking much longer, and a post from yesterday afternoon isn't appearing in any of the search engines. Can anyone give me an idea why this may be happening? http://www.360dwellings.com/2011-denver-parade-of-homes-luxury-home-tour/

Are post tags on blogs still useful?
Hello I have a number of sites on Wordpress which all still use the post tag feature. Is this something that I should really be avoiding due to duplicate content issues in the url's of the site, or is it still something that can help SEO wise? I only ask as I did a crawl diagnostics report on SEOmoz and it found that 48 of my title elements were too short due to these tags in the URL's. If you do all suggest I keep using them, should they be 3 odd words which are keywords? Thanks in advance.
