Guest Work


The ultimate compliment that one blogger can give to another blogger is, an invitation to guest blog on one'sblog.  In addition to giving the ultimate compliment,  there are several advantages to this act of courtesy.

For the Blog Owner::  the owner has the opportunity to get a fresh perspective on their blog topics.  Consider this a 'mini' vacation - an chance to take a blog stroll to your guests blogger's site; as well as, the sites of your followers.  What a fantastic way to continue activity on your blog while offerring your readers an opportunity to be heard in a community that they are comfortable and that they respect.


For the Guest Blogger:: an opportunity to add relevant information on a blog that you respect.  An opportunity to provide that 'fresh' perspective to a new audience.  An opportunity to draw traffic to your blog.  A great opportunity to build your community.

For the Reader::  a fresh view on a familiar topic.  An opportunity to 'meet' and interact (via comments) with someone new, that shares their interests.  An opportunity to get involved in a new community.  An opportunity to be invited to guest blog. 

What is your experience with being a guest blogger?  Would you accept an invitation to guest blog on another blog site?  This is thed way that I see it - How do you see it?
