5 Reasons No One Is Guestposting At Your (My) Blog

Well, obviously, I’ve not been looking for guest posters. But apparently, it’s a thing you can do to get more content and more readers. Interesting concept. At least I’d feel like I was talking to someone besides myself.

Ask any pro blogger and he will tell you that the more content you have on your blog – the more traffic you get. That’s mainly because each post you publish gets indexed by Google and starts getting search traffic since then.

So the more – the better, right? You can publish a new post daily or maybe even two, but this way you’ll quickly get tired and probably run out of ideas. That is why it’s so sweet when people contribute their own posts to your blog!.. Hey what’s the matter? No one is offering you a guestpost? I think I know why!

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
