4 ways guest posting can help promote your travel site

Guest posting has really become popular during recent times with more and more people trying their hands at it. Do you have a travel site? Do you know that you can get some massive benefits from starting a guest posting campaign? In this article I will be speaking about 4 ways how your travel business can benefit from guest posting and I hope that it will be useful for you.

Reputation Building

First of all guest posting will allow you to build your brand and name on the internet. The key here is to make sure that you post some quality articles on established blog. Before long people will begin to consider you as an expert in the field and this should help improve your conversion rate. Again I will like to stress out that you need to write useful content and not some spun content. You will have to show readers that you are knowledgeable in the field.

New Contacts

By guest posting on some other sites, you will be able to make new contacts within the travel niche. Whether it is some regular visitors on the host site or some other webmasters, this should allow you to make some new contact within the field. This can provide you with some joint venture opportunities or may be some new business ideas.

Traffic

By posting some useful articles on some established blog, you should be able to generate some great traffic towards your blog. Indeed if your article is really good, readers should be tempted to click on the link back to your site in order to learn more from you. As a result this should bring some interesting traffic to your own site.

SEO

Guest posting can also be useful when it comes to building backlinks to your site. Indeed having some links coming from relevant sites (in your case this could be holiday and travel niche) can greatly improve your rankings with the search engines. Just make sure that the host site have some authority and page rank if you want to make the most of this strategy.

How To Remove Your Copied Content From Google Search Engine

As you know there are many auto blogs and content copiers who mostly copy the articles easily without any permission and credit. Because of these content copiers you get risk to low traffic and duplicate content which is detected by Google. Google often ignore the contents which have been posted more than 2 times in the web.

So you must remove such copied content at least from Google search engine. To do so, you’ve to use CopyScape to find your copied content or article. If you found any result then investigate that article whether it matches exactly with yours or not. If that article didn’t got any credit or link to your blog then its a time to report that site to Google.

First search if that article is indexed in Google or not. Go to Google DMCA page. Choose this options receptively: Blogger > I have found content that may violate my copyright > Yes, I am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. And click the link that you see as below:

Google Report Option

Fill up the form with your contact information as below:

Contact Information Google

Now in first field of ‘Your Copyrighted Work’ copy and past the URL of your original content as below.

Copyright Content

Then in next field paste the URL of copied content. Also fill up all the fields as below:

Fill Google Report Form

After few days you’ll get the email message from Google. They’ll tell you what they’ve done with the duplicate content. In most of the case, they reported URL will be removed from Google search engine. And no more pain for you. In my case I got the positive email message within 2 days from Google. See the mail which is replied to me by Google:

Google Mail Reply

You must report the duplicate content which is copied by other blogs in order to be safe and risk free. This this way you can increase traffic of your blog. The main thing is that the blog who copies your article comes in first page of Google than yours. So, copiers get more traffic than you. How hard you write an article and how easily copy cats copy your article.

So did you started to check and report duplicate content of your blog?

Increase Google Page Rank In Next Update: Panda Friendly

Now a days Google keeps releasing the new search engines algorithms to bring more quality in search feature. Many webmasters loose their Google search engine position and Google page rank. One of our blog Hack Tutors also lost Google page rank because of Google Panda update algorithm that was officially announced by Google. Before, Hack Tutors page rank was 3 and dropped down to PR 0. We know its vast difference and quite strange as well.

Google Page Rank

By researching about Google panda algorithm we had discovered some ways to get on right position in eyes of Google search engine.

No More Low Quality Link Building

Google started to recognize backlinks as spam which are came from the pages having too many out bound links. So start getting links from the page having few external links and quality content. Make sure the page do not consists too many ads and must not have very few contents. If you’ve backlinks from those spammy pages, you’ll get negative effects in Google rankings and SEO.

Change Link The Building Strategy

You might been doing link building in unnatural way which effects Google page rank. Getting links from .EDU and .GOV blogs is no more good enough because in most of the case these types of pages already been spammed.

Now its better to get the quality links by guest posting in related blogs. So that Google can recognize your website got the good quality link from related website. Hubpages is Good example. Its PR 6 website and DoFollow. The main good this is that, you can post a content in any niche.

Maximize Internal Links

Internal linking shares the link juice from one page to another. So if one of your page have good Google authority then you must manage to link to another related pages. Its even better if you attach the keyword with internal link. Internal linking process is only limited within your blog. So your blog or website will get strong link popularity.

These are the simple but very effective way to increase Google page rank in next update. Not only Google page rank but these tips also helps your blog to improve search engine position and other rankings. These must be implemented if you want to go through Google panda algorithm.

Here are some DoFollow forums which allows you to add signature with links in your each post:

You must read the forum rules before posting. Some forum allows signature only after completing several posts.

Try to get some backlinks from related blogs. Send link exchange request by contacting them. Few links from related blog can be even helpful. Usually, people approve your request only if you have good stats. So, first you have to improve your blog stats.

Most of the people believe that link exchange is not a good link building strategy. But its not true in all cases. Link exchange is bad only when you exchange links from unrelated sites. No matter how high PR that page have. For example, I have weight loss related site and I requested link exchange to hacking related site, then there is a bad view of Google.

Blog commenting is the most popular and powerful way to get high quality backlinks. Not only links but it also helps to improve blog inter-relation. Be active by commenting on blogs which have same contents as yours. Blog commenting helps your to increase PR, improve SERP and other general stats.

You just have to use some techniques while commenting. Comments like “Thanks for sharing” and “Wow! Great post” devalues your personality. So, try to comment wisely. It must not be long but must be related to the content. Viewer and blog owner must recognize that your comment have some good value.
