In fact you want pull in the source of traffic that you wish to become a potential for your blog from guest posting but it not happen in the end. Why? I cannot give you a specific question but there is a possibility that – you do it the wrong way!
However don’t worry too much because blogging involves trial and error and I also have various experiences in dealing with guest posts – as a guest blogger and also webmaster.
Let’s see some of the wrong ways when writing a guest post and how to make it right.
#1 Your Title Sucks
It is a possibility that you publish a title that sucks. You might put your hard work and time to create an amazing content but you are going nowhere if your title sucks. You can’t target the most readers to read the rest of your article if your first line avoids from doing so.
So how to do this?
- write a title that creates interest
- attract curiosity
- trigger the readers to read your guest post
Some of triggering titles:

#2 Your Content Sucks
Not all guest posting content sucks, but if you think you got one – it’s time to change now! So why some guest article sucks? It’s because you publish wrong guest post for the wrong audience! Why in the world do you need to write about SEO in automotive blog and there is no logic reason why you should write about iPhone applications in a real estate blog!
My suggestion is simple – find the right niche for your guest post and you can feel the benefits from it!
#3 You Tell Everything in Your Guest Post
One thing that you have to keep in mind is – are you going to give exposure to yourselves or to the webmaster? Because I realize some guest article tell everything inside! I’m not opposing your effort of giving information to the readers but, you know, spare some for your own site!
Spare some links and some paragraphs telling the readers than they can read more or know the details at your site. You can do this indirectly though links or your byline or your remarks.
Well.. I shared some of the wrong ways in writing a guest post and how to make it right. Good luck in writing your guest post!
