Guest Post Placement
Use this skill to plan guest post campaigns where off-site bylined content must serve the publisher's audience, justify its citations, and support an on-site asset or business goal.
This skill is derived from Garrett French and Eric Ward's Ultimate Guide to Link Building and uses transformed guidance with durable book-topic references. Do not copy book prose into user outputs.
Quick Start
- Use the Contents table below to choose the smallest useful reference set.
- Use
workflows/plan-guest-post-placement.md for a full campaign plan.
- Confirm the target page has a natural citation reason.
- Translate keywords into audience names before prospecting.
- Return viability, publisher quality, content titles, outreach constraints, tracking fields, and risks.

Core Posture
- Guest posting is editorial contribution, not manufactured link placement.
- Every link needs a reader-serving citation reason.
- Commercial pages often need citable elements before outreach.
- Pitch titles before complete articles in scaled campaigns.
- Track content inventory carefully to avoid duplicate placement.
