1. PURPOSE OF TEMPLATE
Guest blogging is one of the core strategies for attracting quality traffic to your site. It builds reputation
and gets your name out there in the blogosphere.
The template below provides an honest and straightforward approach for increasing your chances of
getting your guest post accepted. It states your credentials, demonstrates that you know the other
blogger (i.e. you have read or follow their site), tells them the content you’re going to submit and
provides examples about own blogging style and skills.
