3 More Benefits of Guest Blogging

The first most beneficial blogging activity is obviously that write a good blog post in our own blog. There is nothing we can offer if there is nothing in our blog – or there are only ads in our blog without any good blog post. Since it is already obvious, I will do not write about it. It is better if I write about the second most beneficial blogging activity so we learn something new here.

In my opinion, the second most beneficial blogging activity is guest blogging. This opinion is base on my guest blogging experience. There are so many benefits that we can get from each of our submitted guest post. There are surely a lot of learning from the whole process of guest blogging. I already wrote about 6 benefits of guest blogging back then.

And now, I will write three more benefits that we can get from guest blogging activity. These three benefits are which I experience from my recent guest blogging activity. OK, let’s go to the core business and start the learning process. Here the three more benefits of guest blogging that I recently learned:

Finding How To Optimize My Current WordPress Plugin

Some of host bloggers will recommend us, as guest blogger, with some useful tips to get most from our guest post such as how to optimize the feature from available plugin such as All In One SEO Pack (AIO) (). How to optimize AIO WordPress Plugin which I got from my guest blogging in draggon blogger.

Justin, the man behind dragon blogger, told me to always fill the title, description, and keyword part of AIO to get optimum exposure from search engine (especially for the big Google search engine). After learned this important thing, I always used it in my blog post. And guess what? Yes, my traffic significantly improve after that – the traffic improving is around 60%.

What’s a big benefit from guest blogging, isn’t?

Finding New Useful WordPress Plugin

In above, I already wrote one of guest blogging benefits which is to optimize the already had WordPress plugin. Now, let’s move to another guest blogging benefit which is to find new WordPress plugin – a new useful WordPress plugin indeed. If aware while submit a guest post, we may find some useful feature in posting form that we can use for our own blog.

That’s what happened for me when submitted my latest guest post in Blazing Mind. I found proofreading feature in the posting form which is really helpful to proof read my guest post before submitted it. I did not know if we able to have this proof reading feature in our posting form – and may never know if I do not submit a guest post in Blazing Mind.

After aware of this proof reading feature, I email Karen, the woman behind Blazing Mind, and ask how to get this feature. Karen immediately tell me that I can get this proof reading feature by installing “After The Deadline” WordPress plugin. Karen also help me to configure the plugin. From now on, the grammar in my blog post should be improving for sure. Big thanks to you Karen.

It is very a good benefit to find this very useful WordPress plugin, isn’t it?

Finding What I am lack of

Usually, the host blog admins act as editor for each submitted guest post. It is surely a big benefit from guest blogger since they have a good editor to check their submitted guest post. The host blog admin usually bring some fix in submitted guest post before decide to publish it. As guest blogger, I learn a lot from the fixing in my submitted guest post. I found what I am lack of from each fixing.

And if lucky, the host blog admin may tell us directly in which pare we should be improved. And it seems that I am lucky enough since Gautam from Blog GoDown decided to tell me directly of the grammar error in my submitted blog post. It make me aware that I still need to improve my grammar knowledge. And I hope that with the new plugin that I knew from Karen able to improve this grammar things.

It is always good to find what we are lack of so we can improve, isn’t it?

Final Words
