Guest blogging queen, Ann Smarty described how she got her start as a guest blogger:

“It somehow happened without me trying too much. I started blogging and was invited to guest post at Search Engine Journal. I didn’t even know what a guest post was and was too humble to even include an “About author” page. Then guest posting invites kept coming. I saw traffic and more people recognizing me as an expert. I saw the benefit! So I started guest blogging actively. Then the idea of MyBlogGuest was born and my name became associated with “guest blogging” because of it. I started to guest post even more promoting MyBlogGuest. It was promoted 100% with my guest posts: no paid reviews, no ads, just “free” guest posts. And it started growing! I guess that’s the best evidence of the benefits of guest blogging.” Read the full article on seomoz…
