Guest Posting Sites List — How to Actually Vet One

Most "free guest posting sites lists" online are outdated, recycled from other blogs, or padded with sites that stopped accepting posts years ago. Here's how we vet sites before adding them to our own working list — and how to request it.

Why Most Lists Are Wrong

The Problem With Public Guest Posting Sites Lists

Search "guest posting sites list" or "list of blogs that accept guest posts" and you'll find hundreds of near-identical roundups — many copy-pasted from each other, unverified, and months or years out of date. A site that accepted free guest posts in 2023 may now be a paid-only link farm, defunct, or de-indexed entirely.

We maintain our own working list internally — re-verified before every campaign, not published once and forgotten — because we place guest posts for clients and need it to be accurate, not because it makes a good blog post. We'll share relevant sites from it once we know your niche.

The Checklist

How to Vet a Guest Blogging Site Yourself

Run any site through this before pitching or paying — free or paid, high DA or not.

📈

Verified Organic Traffic

Check Ahrefs or SEMrush for actual estimated organic traffic — not just a DA/DR score. A high-DA guest post site with near-zero traffic is a red flag, not a bargain.

🏢

Independent Ownership

Search the site name plus "guest post network" or "link package" — sites that show up across dozens of SEO marketplaces are usually part of a link farm, regardless of their metrics.

📰

Active, Varied Editorial

Check the last 10 published posts. Multiple authors, recent dates, and topics beyond obvious paid guest content signal a real editorial process.

🎯

Topical Match

A site accepting "any niche" guest posts for a flat fee is optimizing for revenue, not relevance — and Google can tell the difference in the link's context.

FAQ

Guest Posting Sites List FAQ

Are free guest posting sites lists usually accurate?

Rarely for long. Public lists go stale within months as sites stop accepting posts or lose their traffic. Always re-verify traffic and recent publishing activity yourself before pitching, regardless of the source.

What makes a guest blogging site worth pitching?

Verified organic traffic, independent ownership, topical relevance, and evidence of a real editorial process — not a DA score alone.

Is a high DA guest post always worth more?

No. DA is a third-party metric that can be inflated by spammy link profiles. A lower-DA site in your exact niche with real traffic is typically worth more than a high-DA generic site with none.
