[0:00] Guest posting can take a lot of time. [0:01] You need to find sites to pitch, get your pitch accepted, and then actually write a [0:05] good post. [0:06] So that comes with two big limitations. [0:08] The first is finding enough unique topics to write about. [0:11] And the second is time. [0:12] But I'm going to help you break through these limitations. [0:15] In this video, I'm going to show you how to systematize your guest blogging process so [0:19] you can find an unlimited number of prospects and topics with very little effort. [0:24] Stay tuned. [0:24] [music] [0:28] What's up SEOs? [0:29] Sam Oh here with Ahrefs, the SEO tool that helps you grow your search traffic, research [0:33] your competitors and dominate your niche. [0:36] Now, while each of the tactics that I'm about to share with you are easy alone, this is [0:40] more of an advanced tutorial because scaling any link building process, it takes time, and [0:44] some trial and error. [0:45] So what is guest posting or guest blogging? [0:48] It's when you publish content on another website with the goal to increase exposure, traffic, [0:53] or brand awareness for your own site. [0:55] And this tactic only has 3 steps. [0:57] #1. You need to find websites to pitch your guest post ideas to. [1:01] #2. Find topics to write about. [1:03] #3. Write content and get it approved/published on their blog, ideally with a link back to [1:08] your site. [1:09] So let's move on to step one and find guest posting sites to pitch. [1:12] There are two really easy ways to do this. [1:14] The first one is to search for something like: intitle:your topic, so I'll use fitness as [1:19] our example. [1:20] And then I'll add "guest post by" as a phrase match. [1:23] Next, we want to make sure that pitching these sites will be worth your time. [1:26] And this is super important because you don't want to spend your time writing for websites [1:29] that get no traffic and have no links, because it's probably not going to do much for your brand or website. [1:35] And there are two metrics you can look at to get a bird's eye view of the websites. [1:38] The first is Domain Rating, which is an Ahrefs metric that represents the overall strength [1:43] of a website's backlink profile. [1:45] And the second is the amount of search traffic they get at the domain level. [1:48] And you can find these metrics with Ahrefs SEO toolbar. [1:51] After you've installed it, just click on the icon, and you'll see that there's an inline [1:55] view of the SEO metrics for each page. [1:57] And the domain level metrics are the ones on the right side. [2:00] One of my favorite things to do is to export the top 100 results, which you can do by clicking [2:04] the icon up here. [2:06] Just make sure that you have your settings to show the top 100 results, which you can [2:09] do by going to Settings, Search settings, and drag the "Results per page" up to 100. [2:15] Then you can open up the spreadsheet and start creating filters to only show websites that [2:19] will meet your "thresholds." [2:20] For example, you can set a filter to only show pages with a Domain Rating of 40 or higher. [2:25] And then set the Domain Search Traffic filter to more than 10,000 search visitors. [2:30] And right away, you have a list of around 15 or so guest posting sites to pitch. [2:34] Now, 15 or so results probably won't be too exciting if you're looking to do this at scale. [2:39] So the best way to find thousands of guest posting sites is to use Content Explorer. [2:44] This is basically our mini search engine that has a ton of filterable metrics and one cool [2:48] feature that's pretty game-changing for guest blogging. [2:51] So first, I'll type in "fitness" and change this to a title search. [2:55] Next, I'll set the "One article per domain" filter, since we don't need to pitch the same [2:59] website numerous times. [3:01] Now, we can set the Domain Rating filter again to a minimum of 40 and add a max value of 70. [3:07] And I'll also set the language filter to "English," since I won't be able to pitch sites in another language. [3:12] And we now have a list of nearly 10,000 unique websites that have written about our topic. [3:18] Now, two important notes: [3:19] #1. You don't need to limit your prospects to just websites that have a "Write for us" page. [3:24] Most websites don't have one and if you're actually providing solid content for them, [3:28] then there are very few reasons as to why they would reject it. [3:32] And #2. You will have to filter through these results. [3:35] But it's literally just a matter of eyeballing the domain names using the "does the domain [3:39] name look like it makes sense" rule. [3:41] One last tip is that you should prioritize the sites you pitch based on a.) [3:45] relevancy, which is pretty straightforward, and b.) if the website has ever linked to you before. [3:50] And this is the game-changing feature I was talking about. [3:52] Within Content Explorer, we have this filter called "Highlight unlinked domains." [3:56] Here's how it works. [3:57] Just click here and enter in your domain. [3:59] And right away, it's going to highlight all of the domains that have never linked to your [4:03] website before. [4:04] And the reason why this is important is because in general, links from the same websites will [4:08] have less weight than a link from a new referring domain. [4:11] So you want to be pitching new websites that have never linked to you before. Great! [4:15] So now all we need to do is click the Export button and just make sure that the "Only highlighted [4:20] unlinked domains" checkbox is checked, which will further narrow down your list of guest [4:24] posting prospects. [4:25] From here, just open up your spreadsheet and clean up your list a bit for websites that [4:29] you want to pitch. [4:30] Ok, we now have a ton of sites to pitch our guest posts to and could easily scale this [4:34] by entering in different search terms in Content Explorer. [4:37] The next step is to find suitable guest post topics to write about. [4:40] Now, I know that people do outreach for guest blogging differently. [4:43] Some people prefer to include 3-5 headlines, while others prefer to send a general [4:47] feeler email to see if the website is even accepting guest posts. [4:51] Rather than leaning to one side or the other, I'm going to show you 3 dead simple strategies [4:55] to generate an infinite number of headlines to pitch. [4:58] The first way is called "The Robin Hood Technique." [5:00] If you don't know this green hooded fellow, he's best known for taking from the rich and [5:04] giving to the poor. [5:05] And in the same way, you can do that by finding topic ideas from popular sites, aka the rich, [5:11] and giving your own unique content pitches to the lesser known sites, aka the poor. [5:15] So let's go back to Content Explorer, and I'll search for a popular website like nerdfitness.com. [5:20] Next, you can sort the results of this website by whatever you think is a good fit. [5:24] For example, you can sort their pages by Referring Domains or by their most shared content using [5:29] the "Total shares" filter. [5:31] And you can see some good topic ideas here like on intermittent fasting, body weight [5:35] workouts, and paleo dieting. [5:37] So choose whichever topics you want to write about, and pitch it to the other fitness sites. [5:41] And this example nicely transitions us into the second technique, which is called "The [5:45] Splintering Technique." [5:47] With the Ahrefs blog and YouTube channel, we love creating in-depth content. [5:51] For example, if you look at our link building guide, you'll see that this is a 7,500-word [5:55] post with 6 chapters. [5:57] This is what we will call our "hero" content. [5:59] And from here, we can "splinter" this article into 6 or more shorter pieces that we could [6:04] easily pitch to other blogs. [6:06] Let me put this into perspective. [6:07] Chapter 1 could be a post called "X Link Building Tactics That Move the Needle." [6:11] Chapter 2 could be "Essential Link Building Skills Every SEO Needs to Master." [6:16] And look at chapter 4. [6:17] This could be split up into numerous posts. [6:20] The Art and Science of Creating Link Bait [6:22] The Definitive Guide to Broken Link Building [6:25] Guest Posting at Scale. [6:27] You get the idea, right? [6:28] And hey, even if you don't have a ton of massive guides, you can use big guides from other [6:33] sites to gain inspiration. [6:35] Looking back at the Nerd Fitness example, you'll see that their beginner's guide to [6:38] intermittent fasting is 7,600+ words. [6:41] Just scroll through the blog post, and try and extract ideas based on the subheadings. [6:45] Now, you shouldn't be copying these articles. [6:47] That's plagiarism. [6:48] These techniques are strictly meant to get quick ideas you can pitch to other websites. [6:52] Alright, the final technique you can use to scale your guest posting is called "The Perspective [6:56] Technique." [6:57] And this technique is centered around finding opportunities in lateral niches. [7:01] For example, if you're a freelance writer and you want to write an article called [7:05] "X Content Marketing Tips in 2019," then you'd probably want to pitch sites focused on content marketing. [7:11] But you could slightly change the perspective of the title to something like "X Content [7:14] Marketing Tips for Small Business, for Lawyers, for Startups, or whatever it might be. [7:19] And you can just go to Google and type in a query like "content marketing tips for" [7:24] and you'll see a drop-down of suggestions. [7:26] But these results are very limited in terms of the quantity, so if you find this strategy [7:30] works well for you, then you can enter a seed keyword into Ahrefs' Keywords Explorer tool. [7:34] Next, I'll go to the Phrase Match report. [7:37] And then I'll use the "Include" filter to search for phrases with the word "for." [7:41] And just like that, you now have a ton of lateral niches you can reach with your content. [7:45] Great, so we now have virtually an endless number of sites and more than enough [7:49] topics that we can use to pitch these websites. [7:52] So the final thing to do is the most time-consuming and that's to actually write your content. [7:56] While this may be a time sucker, it's actually the easiest. [7:59] And it really comes down to this question: [8:01] "How big is your wallet?" [8:02] I know, I know. [8:03] No one likes hearing that, but it's true to a certain extent. [8:07] The good news is that there is no shortage of freelance writers. [8:10] Just look for talent on websites like Upwork, ProBlogger Jobs, or simply by searching for [8:14] something like "hire freelance writer" in a Google search. [8:17] Just make sure the content writers you hire are knowledgeable in this subject area and [8:21] are capable of writing genuinely useful content. [8:24] If you have a team of internal writers or have a fat wallet, then it's simple. [8:27] Just use a modified version of the link building system that I showed you in another video, which [8:32] I'll link up here. [8:33] But if you simply don't have the budget to hire anyone, then you just can have [8:36] to muscle through these articles. [8:37] If this is the case, I highly recommend using the "splintering" technique because you've already [8:42] written a great piece of content, and rewriting a part of it with a bit more detail or perhaps [8:47] a new angle shouldn't take you very long. [8:49] And I promise you that as you continue practicing, you'll be able to smash out quality articles fast. [8:55] Now, before you go and start pitching sites, I do want to pass on a few additional tips [8:59] that'll make your guest posting campaigns a success. [9:02] First, you should always pitch more sites than you can handle. [9:05] Not every site you contact is going to accept your guest post or even respond. [9:10] For example, if your team can handle 10 posts per week, then I would pitch around [9:13] 100 sites. [9:15] Just make sure you can deliver in a timely manner. [9:17] The second guest blogging tip is to link to other guest posts that you've already published. [9:21] And this is one of my favorite things to do, but I don't see enough people doing it. [9:25] There are obvious benefits like having your name and face pop up in more places, but by [9:29] linking to these other pages, you get the additional SEO benefits by powering the pages [9:34] that are already linking to you. [9:36] And as a result, you'll reap some of those benefits too. [9:38] Guest blogging is very powerful, and it's a strategy that we regularly use at Ahrefs. [9:43] Use this process to refine your guest posting SOPs, and you'll save a ton of time and be [9:47] able to scale as far as your resources will allow. [9:50] Now, if you enjoyed this video, make sure to like, share and subscribe, and if you have [9:54] any questions, throw them down below and I'd be happy to help out. [9:57] So keep grinding away and I'll see you in the next tutorial.
