I’ve been writing a lot of guest posts, so this post will bring you up to speed.
Guest posting is one of the key factors in driving traffic to my blog. It allows me to get my name out there and put myself in front of more people, which I have to do if I am going to reach and help as many people as possible, right?

I know a lot of bloggers procrastinate when it comes to guest posting. I have the same fears, but it really isn’t that hard. Accept your fears and do it anyway. Crank out guest posts on a regular basis if you’re serious about growing your blog.
In the short amount of time my blog has been live, I have been surprised at the support and feedback that I have gotten, so thank you, all of my awesome readers!
With all that said, here are five of the guest posts that have gone live in the past few weeks:
1. 6 Powerful Reasons Why Everyone Should Have a Blog
I talked with Alex over at Blogussion and he liked my writing it seems, because he allowed me to guest post. The guys at Blogussion are openly accepting guest posts if you’re interested. This article is simple and delves into the more spiritual benefits of blogging.
The benefits that most people do not think about, such as connection, confidence, opportunities, self improvement and value. Sure you can make money blogging, but you can also improve your life in many different ways.
I wrote this for a good friend of mine, Tomaz. He has a very inspirational and helpful blog that deals with building niche sites and making a living online. If you’re just learning the ropes on how to achieve financial freedom online, you might want to check it out.
Tomaz is a very down-to-earth kind of guy so you don’t have to deal with hype or him trying to sell you a bunch of shiny, new stuff. My article talks about using passion in your online business to differentiate yourself from the crowd.
3. How to Let Go and Reclaim Your Life
The first time I stumbled onto Dani’s website Positively Present I thought “this would be a great blog to guest post for”, but I figured I’d wait a bit. But the universe was having none of that, because a few hours later Dani left a comment telling me how much she enjoyed a post I wrote.
I e-mailed her thanking her for commenting and sharing her thoughts and at the same time asked for a guest post. She was more than happy to accept one, she said.
I got inspired and wrote a big one about letting go of the past, future and your fears. If you want to learn more about me, I recommend you read this article. It goes into my own fears and obstacles and is around 1,500 words long.
The Skool of Life is run by Srinivas Rao. I first got interested in his blog because of the interviews he did with up and coming bloggers. I’m constantly surprised at how friendly everyone in the blogging space is. Just be yourself and reach out, you never know what might happen.
The article is about accepting the unknown and embracing your imperfection. Our external circumstances are never going to be exactly the way we want it, so the only way we can change our life is from the inside out.
5. 5 Profound, Yet Simple Ways Juicing Can Transform Your Life
I’m extremely passionate about health. If I were to start another blog, it would be about natural health. I have been into it ever since I ran into health problems at 16 and the doctors had no clue what was up with me.
Instead of relying on the doctors, I went the natural route and got over my problems. Nathalie over at the Raw Foods Witch is one of the most awesome people I’ve met. She’s a black belt (literally) raw foods master.
If you’re just getting into raw foods, check out her 5-week e-mail course.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts.
First time on your website Henri and you already inspired me. I am one of those people who has been procrastinating to write any guest posts. I’ll definitely start doing it now. Great blog and great articles!
Welcome to the team, Lana. Definitely get started guest posting, start with smaller blogs to build up confidence (if needed)

Hi Henri,
First time here …
Guest posting is something I have only recently become aware of as an optional marketing tool. I had seen guest posts but had no idea that the blogosphere was so inclusive and that even newbies, if they offer good content and write well, can be guests.
Best
Valentina
Great to see you here, Valentina! Guest posting is definitely a great strategy for getting your content out there. As long as you write well, you should be fine.
Awesome list of guest posts, Henri!
It’s great to see you making the rounds on the web. Is there any way you can set up your blog so I can subscribe in a Google Reader? I definitely want to keep up-to-date on your posts, but it’s hard for me to remember to check sites that aren’t in my Reader. Thanks again for sharing this list! I’m looking forward to checking out the posts I haven’t already read.
You can subscribe to my feed. There is an RSS icon below “connect with me” in the right sidebar. If you can’t find it you can just click here. Thanks for stopping by!
Awesome reasons to have a blog. I think that any reason that opens your mind up and allows your creativeness to play into action and write amazing things that help improve and inspire the life of others is a wonderful reason to have a blog on its own.
Every blog is different and unique to the individual who writes for it, be it the owner or a guest post. Let your creativity roam and share the greatness you have with the world without fear of judgement. The only thing to fear is fear itself and with blogging, your words are magic to the minds of thousands if you let them be.
Exactly! Let yourself just be who you are. Fear will be there, so accept it and work through it. There will always be people out there who love your writing, but you have to be yourself first!
Much as I want to guest post, I’m always conquered by my fear. I felt like nobody’s going to accept my offer. I have recently read you guest post on Blogussion.com and I say it has lead me to this blog of yours. You have a good work and this confirms the effectiveness of guest posting.
You have nothing to lose, Walter. The worst thing that can happen is that things stay the same and you have to improve your writing. The best thing that can happen is that you get an avalanche of traffic to your blog

Hey Henri.
Nice moves here with the guest posts. I like some of your titles, and your roundup is appreciated for folks to see where you have posted, and what you have posted about. Most don’t add in this important follow-up.
Good call about health. Your focus on it says a lot about what you value, and your intelligence. If I don’t have eyes, I can’t read your writing directly, so I need to protect my eyes in that regard. Health is something to not overlook.
Henri with the big moves.
Yes sir, Armen! Without eyes you can’t read and you will definitely need eyes to enjoy my content. What I have planned for the future will blow your mind, so perhaps you should wear sunglasses.
Hi Henri,
Thanks for the plug. I just got back from vacation so I’ll be checking out all the guest posts you’ve done over the last few weeks and I think I’ll have to do a guest post roundup as well
Hope you had a good vacation. You should definitely do a guest post roundup, I’m sure I’ve missed many of your articles.
Goos stuff Henry. Glad to see the guests posts flowing and you don’t have to be a genius to see it is already helping this blog big time with the new visitors! Keep it up : ) Must go and do one myself now!
Guest posting works extremely well. Another tactic that I have had fun with and that has produced results is commenting. Thanks for stopping by, Niall
