Ways to Construct an excellent Guest Post Pitch

Posted by SHELDON HARRIS on September 7th, 2017

Guest blogging is an extremely effective way to create awareness, rise reliability, generate website traffic as well as boost your SEO value. However before you can earn those rewards, you first need to take the initial step and successfully pitch a guest post.

That is often an area that trips lots of people up, and if you’ve tried to pitch a few guest content and had only a lukewarm reply (or even none at all) therefore odds are you have got an issue with your pitch. To fix it, here’s what you need to know about how to write an excellent guest post pitch:

• Research the websites you wish to pitch to cautiously
Every good pitch starts with good research – and you need to discover as much as you can about the sites that you intend to pitch to. The first part of your groundwork should be to identify the worthiness of the website as well as its rules about guest posting (if any). The next part however is perhaps equally as vital, and you should research the blogger that you’re going to contact and learn as much about them as you possibly can.

• Find the suitable subject
The topic of the guest post that you’re pitching is important given it must be content that bloggers will feel is relevant to their followers, attractive, and of a certain quality. Based on your research you will be able to check that first box easily, however the next two may need a little bit of brainstorming. Try exploring latest concerns or trends, given they can often help you to create topics that would appeal to web publishers.

• Connect with the blogger individually
Once you begin writing your pitch, be sure you link up with the blogger individually or use professional guest posting service. Address them by their name, and perhaps touch on something that you like about their website or a newly released post that they published. It is very important to establish an excellent connection with bloggers as possible – this is the first task.

• Justify your guest post
As soon as you point out the subject which you intend to pitch – justify it. Inform the blogger exactly why you believe the topic you’re suggesting would be a good fit, and how it would appeal to their blog’s audience.

• Be simple – but thorough
When you finish creating your pitch, take into account that it should be brief, however comprehensive. To recap you want to introduce yourself, connect with them individually, pitch your topic, and thus reveal why it is important – and each line of your pitch need to work towards that message.

As we discussed there is a whole lot associated with the art of pitching guest posts, and it will require practice prior to when you get it right. One last point of interest is the fact that you should try to always reach out to bloggers and develop your connection even more, as even those web publishers who turn you down at first may well accept a guest post at some later stage if you keep touch base frequently.
