Sorry Keri i didn't receive any private message from you, and i just don't know that including the website only once the relevant, I again check my inbox at here in moz and didn't see any message from you. Thank for nice tip here about my question.
Should i check my email inbox or just moz private massaging (I didn't receive messages in Moz private message) ?

I have a slightly different suggestion, and it's about what not to do. I have emailed you privately, but have not heard back, so I apologize but I need to put this in the public forum. Please do not include a link to your site in every single question, response, and comment you make. It makes people think that the only reason you are writing is to get a link, and will result in thumbs down on your answers, and eventual banning from the system if it continues. You are welcome to include the URL of your site when it is relevant to the question, but only when it is directly relevant.
Regarding your question, will you be writing in English, or writing in your native language? Do you have expertise in the area for which you are writing? The quality of the writing itself and of the content will help determine the type of price you can get for selling your writing, or how often people will come to your site to see your content.

Hi!
If your purpose is "to make some bucks", I don't see how you can do this in the short run by creating your own blog.
Building your own blog, if your content is good enough and you are able to engage with users, will help you make your web and your brand more relevant. This way, you will be more likely to increase your quality traffic and your sales as well. Also you can have some income with advertising. It's more of a long term strategy and will have an impact on your social reputation.
On the other hand, writing content for another company will only benefit you on the present. Yes, you will have an income instantly but you won't build any reputation and will be giving credit for your work to others.
It all depends on your strategy. If you are a good writer I'll go for the long term.
Hope it helps!

Write new articles or republish old ones?
Hi,
Content Development | | Enrico_Cassinelli
we run a tourism information website about a region in italy, and each year, during special occasions such as christmas, easter and so on we publish an article with a "what to do on Christmas / Easter / .... in the Langhe" (collecting events, activities, etc.). Is it better to "reuse" the old articles and change only the year in the title and of course the content (providing that we are gonna keep the URL without year), or to publish a new one? thanks!0 -
Blog hasn't ranked since reposting.
Hey Moz fam! I had a blog that was doing pretty well for the target keyword. Unfortunately, to make a long story short, we had an image in it we weren't supposed to so I unpublished it for a few days while we got that sorted out. Since republishing (with all the same content) it has not gotten a single impression. I inspected the URL and it is totally eligible but nothing in the way of organic traffic. Any ideas on how I can recover?

Traffic to blog home page is going down after changing my WordPress Theme
I recently changed my wordpress theme from a standard free theme to a newer theme. The home page I switched up a bit adding more calls to action to some of our top posts and leading people to popular categories and so on. This greatly improved the usability of our site as it allowed us to highlight new posts. The previous free template simply listed 10 of our most recent posts on a page with small snippets and then you had to move to the next page to keep reading. Since switching my theme the blog traffic has stayed relatively level. That being said, the specific posts traffic is going up a lot whereas the organic traffic to the blog homepage is now nearly depleted. Is this a common thing to happen or is there anything I can do to fix this issue?

Is it ok to have two blogs for my website?
Hi Pep's The blog for my website is integrated, but does not have a URL that matches the text. The company I use for my site say that it can't be changed. Basically it displays numbers instead of text in the url. So I thought, what about starting another blog as well as the original. Would this have any effects on my SEO, negative or positive? Any advice greatly appreciated! 🙂

How to promote your blog content
Hi there, we've been blogging for a while now. Some of our content ranks quit well, other posts don't seem to be ranking at all. The weird thing (I think it's weird...) is that we recently published a post and focussed on a phrase that competes with over 400 million indexed pages, and after 3 weeks we're on page 3, and for other posts with only 2.5 million indexed pages we rank past page 5 (ok, this post is already 1,5 year old, does this matter?). To give you some background info, we moved our blog in January in a new subdomain, and redirected the old url's, but didn't actively promote the old posts. Would promoting the old articles through social media help us boost the rankings for these articles (the articles are "best practices", "how-to's", ...). Where / how do you promote your content after you published it on your blog? I find it hard posting in LinkedIn groups related to finance while I have the "online marketing manager" title on my profile. Why would a finance professional read an article shared by a marketing dude? As LinkedIn's API doensn't allow to post into groups anymore, do you actually go through all your relevant groups every time you publish a new blog to share the article?

Simple question: How many words optimal for blog posts
Hello, We're adding a blog to one of our sites. How many words should be in a blog post for it to be optimal for the search engines? If it varies from industry to industry, please give a couple of examples. We were going to do 500 words but that seems a bit long. Thanks!
