Decay And Fall Of Guest Blogging For SEO
Recently put out a lovely posting talking about how for back link SEO for your website is a practice that… "Ultimately, this is why we can’t have nice things in the SEO space"… Which to me is spot on and made me had to share it.
Check out the full post here.

I own many websites and ever day get requests from content farms, spammers and scammers asking to write me "a high quality post… for a back link or two"… What do Glasses, bridal shops, or coffee stores websites have to do with my geeky tech girl stuff? Nothing, but they assure me they will write me quality content for my audience. :/ I am glad to see Google stepping up to deal with this practice.
Also mentioned was how there is a time and place for this. Regardless of Google Search ranking bumps.. I've used quality guest posts to get PR and Branding leadership in my industries and that practice won't change. There is a use for guest posting, but not mass posting. I think there is a valid distinction.
Do you do guest posts? Do you get these spammy emails? What are your thoughts on Google Stepping up on the matter?
If you would like to stay up to date on my posts about all things happening with Google, Facebook, Twitter and so on.. please comment here and i'll add you to the notify circle 🙂

I dunno... I'm not much for 'guest blogging'... not that i have a big following, but it would be weird to have someone else interjected in our space that's not me (or my other regular writers).
