Amusing Guest Post Requests

On occasion, I publish guest posts on my blog, but they are almost always done at my request. I’ve either vetted the writer, or I know they will provide valuable information to readers (and me).

Because I’ve allowed guest posts on my blog, I often receive requests from others to provide guest posts. I am pretty sure most of these requests are because there is SEO value in the embedded links, so people try all different ways to get me to publish their guest posts.

I want to share some of the email introductions I receive because I think they’re fairly amusing. I guess the word on the street is that flattery gets the best response rate.

My name is Alicia and I’m a writer from Manchester, UK. I have a keen interest in guest blogging and have covered different financial categories

  1. I don’t get it. Why bother to go through all the pain of writing a whole article for one backlink when you can just post an inane comment and achieve the same result? 🙂

  2. Received another good one just now. I am flattered:

    “I’m very interested in guest posting at your sites/ blogs. I discovered you by your site. I have gone through your site. I was really impressed and wanted to get involved.”
