Media’s $100b man says the ad market has room to grow - October 2023


Christian Juhl sits atop a $100 billion-a-year budget and is one of the world’s most powerful media executives.


As the global boss of GroupM, the biggest advertising buying group in the world, he oversees the combined spending power for thousands of brands, including Ford, Colgate-Palmolive, Google, Nestlé, Unilever, Mars and Coca-Cola.


GroupM uses that scale to buy media space and sell it back to its clients. Each year, according to the best independent estimates, GroupM spends almost $US64 billion ($101 billion) of its clients’ money on ads.


At that level, a media executive can talk in sweeping, market-wide statements. Wars in the Middle East and Ukraine, clear inflationary pressures, an unsteady future for commercial real estate, and higher interest rates will have tremendous impact on advertising and media markets. It just hasn’t been fully felt yet, Mr Juhl said.


Locally, the ad industry accounts for $53 billion, or 2.1 per cent of GDP, new research released on Friday found. GroupM predicted advertising revenue – how much the world’s advertisers spend – will grow 5.9 per cent in 2023 and 6 per cent in 2024.


“I certainly see all of those unknowns out there, that makes you careful about the future,” Mr Juhl said.


“But generally, I think it’s been a pretty resilient marketplace. We’ve still been able to provide growth for our clients during that time period. I’m still cautiously optimistic we can find ways of growth through this.”


Advertising is going through a resurgence, he said. Rolling lockdowns and forced isolation during COVID-19 drove huge adoption of digital channels. Meta burned billions of dollars on a metaverse then launched a Twitter clone called Threads, TikTok kept growing at breakneck speed, and Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ have all started adding advertising-subsidised tiers to their platforms.


“Advertising has always been a really important part of the economy. It was more surprising when you had [Netflix executives] Reed Hastings or Ted Sarandos saying, ‘We’ll never take advertising on Netflix’,” Mr Juhl said.


“How do you have such large valuable audiences and not open it up in a meaningful way to brands? [Now] there’s probably more inventory available than there’s been in a long time.”


The days of the massive, culture-defining 30- or 60-second ad spot are fading, Mr Juhl said, despite the drawcards of the Super Bowl and the Olympics. “But, largely, viewership on those has been on the decline for some time,” he said.


Likewise, the resurgence of advertising is happening while tech and media companies slash costs. That’s an inevitable correction, he said.


“There’s been so much stimulus put into the market, and there’s been so much growth post COVID, that there’s a natural time right now where I think a lot of companies are just [thinking], ‘Should we slow down?’ So I think that’s more of a natural cycle than sort of ‘Hey, let’s panic and run for the hills,’” Mr Juhl said.


“You have to look at that in the grand scheme of things. We’re still looking at a massive growth mountain over the last four years.”


The true impact of rapid interest rate rises is yet to be fully felt, he said. At some point, that will severely hit consumer spending. But Mr Juhl is upbeat about the future. Government interventions to rescue businesses like Silicon Valley Bank should give some confidence to the market.


“I wouldn’t underestimate governments changing positions quickly in face of all this uncertainty to provide security for those that have been over-extended,” he said. “What happened? They bailed them out. There’s reason to still be optimistic.”

KHAMZAT CHIMAEV: SMASH EVERYONE AND GET ALL THE BELTS


UFC Superstar Khamzat Chimaev’s Desire To Crush The Best In The World Continues As He Faces Former Welterweight Champion At UFC 294: Makhachev vs Volkanovski 2


Nothing was going to stop Khamzat Chimaev from fighting at UFC 294: Makhachev vs Volkanovski 2. After more than a year on the sidelines, “Borz” didn’t care who he faced or at what weight class – he just wants to fight, and he made that clear by accepting Kamaru Usman at middleweight after his bout with Paulo Costa fell through just over a week ago.


The 29-year-old superstar told reporters in Abu Dhabi at UFC 294 media day that the whole process of switching from fighting Costa to fighting Usman was a simple one.


“My manager called me to fight Usman and I said ‘OK, let’s go’,” Chimaev said. “For me, it doesn’t matter.”


When it became clear that Costa was going to have to pull out of their middleweight bout due to an infection in his elbow, Chimaev couldn’t help but feel desperate for a fight. He wrote a message to UFC CEO Dana White begging for a fight with anyone. Ranked, unranked, veteran, or newcomer.


“I wrote Dana White and I said, ‘Brother, give me someone, I need to fight,’” Chimaev recalled. “But then my manager called so I deleted the message.”


Once the fight was announced, many fans were thrilled to find out Chimaev was going to fight Usman in a matchup between the former welterweight champion and one of the division’s top contenders.


But Chimaev moved up to middleweight following a weight miss at UFC 279 and that’s how the fight with Costa came about. Now it’s Usman, and Chimaev is just as excited as the fans to finally showcase what he can do against “The Nigerian Nightmare”.


“Since day one when I get to the UFC, everyone spoke about Khamzat and Usman and our wrestling skills and our striking – all of these things. He’s an old version, I’m new. Like iPhones come out - he’s like iPhone 5 and I’m like iPhone Pro,” Chimaev joked. “If there is gold there, of course he’s going to cut the weight, but he couldn’t take the belt so that’s why he asked [to step in]. I’m Khamzat Chimaev. That’s why he comes up to fight to fight me. The guy comes for money, and the money fight is me.”


Chimaev knows that the public applauds Usman’s decision to step in, and while that’s well deserved, he also knows that coming in on short notice could potentially give Usman the ability to point to his lack of preparation if he were to lose.


“The guy comes just to make money,” Chimaev said. “Of course, he comes to win, everyone comes to the fight to win, but he has all the excuses.”


A win over Usman – and a dominant one like we’ve grown accustomed to seeing from Chimaev – would certainly skyrocket him to the top of the list for title fights at both welterweight and middleweight.


Chimaev believes his UFC career is just getting started. He’s planning on being at the top for the next ten years.


He’s confident that he’ll end up facing Costa at some point and he also has his sights on fighting with Israel Adesanya, battling middleweight champion Sean Strickland, and competing with welterweight champion Leon Edwards.


And that’s exactly what Chimaev wants. He wants to face the best in the world and beat the best in the world in a way that no one has ever seen before. If he can do that, he isn’t concerned with how long it takes him to get to a title shot.


He knows that getting belts and records is inevitable.


“I want to fight the best guys. It’s not fun to watch if I’m going to smash somebody that nobody knows. It’s not going to make UFC any money,” Chimaev said. “I’m not after just the title; I’m after all the heads in the UFC. Smash somebody, make money and be happy.


“If I smash everyone, finish everyone, they have to give me all belts.”

Dana White Announces UFC 294 Co-Main Event


KAMARU USMAN TO FACE KHAMZAT CHIMAEV IN UFC 294 CO-MAIN EVENT


Former Welterweight Champion Replaces Paulo Costa At UFC 294; Faces Rising Star Chimaev



The UFC 294 card continued it evolution Wednesday when UFC CEO Dana White took to social media to announce a major change to the co-main event.


“You know what we’ve been dealing with this week. We just got the big fight done yesterday, the highly anticipated rematch in Abu Dhabi: Makhachev vs Volkanovski,” he said, referencing Tuesday evening’s announcement that Charles Oliveira was injured and would be replaced by the featherweight champion Volkanovski.


“Now you’ve been waiting for the co-main event. Costa’s hurt…we got it done. The No. 4 welterweight in the world, Khamzat Chimaev, is moving up to middleweight and he will face the No. 1 welterweight in the world: Kamaru Usman.”


Usman was one of the most dominant champions in UFC welterweight history before dropping the only two losses of his career back-to-back vs current champion Leon Edwards. He’ll look to build another run to the title, beginning on just 9 days notice vs Chimaev October 21.


Chimaev has become appointment viewing since joining the UFC roster in 2020. Undefeated in his 12 professional bout, with most of his wins coming within the first two rounds, his dynamic style remains a puzzle yet to be solved.


“No. 1 vs No. 4 at middleweight, Usman vs Chimaev,” White said excitedly. “I will see you in Abu Dhabi!”



UFC


CHARLES OLIVEIRA OUT, ALEXANDER VOLKANOVSKI IN AGAINST ISLAM MAKHACHEV AT UFC 294


Featherweight Champion Alexander Volkanovski Replaces Injured Charles Oliveira For Lightweight Ttile Rematch Against Islam Makhachev




UFC CEO Dana White announced a change for the main event at UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi. Featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski will step in against lightweight champion Islam Makhachev after Charles Oliveira was forced to pull out of their scheduled rematch. The main event between Makhachev and Volkanovski is a rematch of their epic duel from February at UFC 284 in Perth, Australia, where Makhachev bested “The Great” via unanimous decision. 


The previous bout between Makhachev and Volkanovski was a back-and-forth affair in front of an electric Australian crowd, who were in full voice supporting their fellow countryman at UFC’s first event in Australia since October 2019. Makhachev successfully defended his title, but some believed Volkanovski did enough to earn double-champ status that night. After the fight, the two champions shared pleasantries, and Volkanovski started pining for a rematch – even saying he was keen to fight Makhachev in Abu Dhabi. 


A few months later, Volkanovski returned to the featherweight division to defend his 145-pound belt against interim featherweight champion Yair Rodriguez at the end of International Fight Week at UFC 290. Makhachev, on the other hand, has not competed since their initial bout. Headlining UFC’s pay-per-view in Abu Dhabi for a second consecutive year, Makhachev hoped to also repeat his performance at UFC 280 when he submitted Oliveira in the second round to win the lightweight title his mentor and close friend Khabib Nurmagomedov once held. 


The disappointment for Oliveira, meanwhile, is understandably high. “Do Bronx” was adamant that he was too caught up in the intensity of the first fight with Makhachev, particularly after Oliveira was forced to vacate the title when he missed weight before knocking out Justin Gaethje at UFC 274 in Arizona, and thusly underperformed.


Oliveira, never a stranger to bouncing back from adversity, showed he was still one of the best lightweights in the world when he ran through Beneil Dariush at UFC 289, snapping Dariush’s 8-fight win streak.


While one can assume the winner in Abu Dhabi will face Oliveira next, it does get a bit more complicated should Volkanovski win a second belt. That opens the door to a trilogy, a Volkanovski-Oliveira fight or even a situation involving Justin Gaethje, whom many believed earned a title shot with his epic knockout win over Dustin Poirier at UFC 291 for the BMF title. 


All that said, the Abu Dhabi fans are in for a treat with UFC 294: Makhachev vs Volkanovski 2 on October 21.

Pro Wrestling Dream Match: Roman Reigns @WWERomanReigns vs Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson @TheRock finally may become reality in a WWE @WWE ring




WrestleMania Season has come early - sort of! The dream match wrestling fans across the globe have been waiting for may actually happen at the upcoming WrestleMania @WrestleMania 


This past Friday Night SmackDown 'The Rock' finally showed up to largely a very positive responce. He even got a "Welcome home" from long time rival John Cena @JohnCena 


Traditonally with pro wrestling mega matches that are worthy of WrestleMania status, the headliner match or matches get a storyline with usually some confrontations, angles, twists and turns in the lead up.


Reigns remains 'Head Of The Table' and the Tribal Chief of 'The Bloodline'. The trials and tribulations of Reigns and his stable of Samoans are well documented and the numerous crime scenes over the past 3 years have the fingerprints of puppet master and self appointed "Evil Genius" Paul Heyman @HeymanHustle written all over them.


WWE announcers such as Michael Cole @MichaelCole , Corey Graves @WWEGraves and Kevin Patrick @kev_egan sometimes speak of "recruitment drives" as WWE factions look for further strength in numbers. This can strengthen the position much like a Hollywood or MMA agent with numerous world class talents on the books.


Wrestling politics can play in the success of a pro wrestlers (and managers) career, not to mention the always potential threat of talent leaving for a rival faction or promoter!, with or without a Hollywood Writers Strike! 


Johnson's return to the WWE appears very timely, and this news fresh off the official launch of TKO @TKOGrp which is akin to a parent of both the WWE and UFC @UFC. Back in 2009 Johnson put the UFC's BMF title around the waist of MMA legend Jorge Masvidal @GamebredFighter 


WWE Universal Champion Reigns and cousin, Johnson, can both be described as BMF'er. Johnson is no stranger to colourful language, this week giving the hint to the WWE live audience to chant A hole at Austin Theory @_Theory1 The WWE lockeroom is getting "the rub" from Johnson, but upstart and gold contender Grayson Waller @GraysonWWE may say otherwise. The Aussie Dynamite has been blowing up things and people in the WWE and may have something to say about the potential possibility of others stealing his spotlight, and so may "American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes @CodyRhodes for that matter. Rhodes may look to cash in on a fatigued Johnson, Rhodes and/or Rolllins @WWERollins come WrestleMania, Day 1 or Day 2! 


Hollywood's loss (for now) appears to be the WWE Unviverses' gain. The match of the decade continues to near to reality by the day. 


WWE, TKO, Reigns, Rock, BFK'ers abound. A perfect storm is brewing. WWE bean-counters, fans and WWE co-workers win.  The Samoan American connection is alive and well. Chiefs, elders and fans, brace yourself for a wrestling war of electrifiying consequences. It's just about pick 'em time.

‘Wrestlers’ Is Here to Rip Your Freakin’ Head Off





The new doc series from the creator of Last Chance U and Cheer is an underdog story pulsing with adrenaline.


From the right corner of the ring, an oiled-up baby face enters with a stone-cold glare and a juicy flex. From the left, a sneering heel climbs through the ropes under floodlights, only to be met with jeers and hisses from the darkness of the stands. What happens next isn’t just a fight; it’s a story. It’s Shakespearean drama. It’s bloody theater that also happens to be more true to life than you’d think. 


Wrestlers, the new doc series from director Greg Whiteley (Last Chance U, Cheer) and BBC Studios Los Angeles takes you right to the center of the fight. It doesn’t only depict the brawls between ambitious athletes managing their stressful lives off the ring (though watching a rage-fueled fighter and a hardened vet go head-to-head in a violent, hair-pulling tussle is thrilling –– especially when you consider they’re mother and daughter). The fight at the center of the story is even more intense: Legendary wrestler Al Snow is attempting to keep professional wrestling league Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) afloat, navigating the brutal waters of mounting debt and the power struggles of new ownership. 


The seven-episode series is intimate, emotional, and offers a behind-the-scenes look at the world of professional wrestling, revealing the hardship and sacrifice that goes into creating this highly complex feat of performance art and athleticism. 



What is Ohio Valley Wrestling?

OVW is located in Louisville, Kentucky, and once served as a premiere training ground for aspiring pro wrestlers like Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Dave Bautista, The Miz, and Randy Orton. In recent years, OVW has struggled to keep its doors open, prompting Snow to sell a majority stake to a group of local businesses — one of whom is Matt Jones, one of the most popular radio personalities in the state of Kentucky. 


Who Are the Wrestlers at Ohio Valley Wrestling? 

The cast of Wrestlers is comprised of OVW legends like Ca$h Flo, Mr. PEC-tacular, Mahabali Shera, Hollyhood Haley J, and more. To learn more about the babyfaces, heels and bosses at OVW — including their signature moves — check out our Wrestlers cast guide. 


Wait, what’s a babyface? 

In wrestling, a babyface (also known as a “face”) is a heroic “good guy” or fan favorite. Typically, they’ll play it fair in the ring and avoid cheating or dirty manuevers. The babyfaces in Wrestlers include Ca$h Flo and the Amazing Maria James. The babyfaces perform relative to the heels in any given match, and sometimes wrestlers shift between the two identities, depending on their narrative arc. 


So what’s a heel?

Simply put, a heel is a villain — a bad boy, a nasty girl, or anyone who fights dirty in the ring. The heels in Wrestlers include Hollyhood Haley J and Freya the Slaya. 


“In wrestling, you’re going to do the same things you do when you tell any story and have a protagonist and an antagonist,” Al Snow told Tudum. “We've got to explain to the audience what the context of the story is, [and help them] understand the challenge that's facing our protagonist, and what the antagonists are trying to prevent.”


In other words: If nothing else, wrestling is a story of good versus evil — and who prevails depends on the day.

Black Superman - 'Muhammad Ali', By Johnny Wakelin


Lyrics

This here's the story of Cassius Clay

Who changed his name to Muhammad Ali

He knows how to talk and he knows how to fight

And all the contenders were beat out of sight


Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali

He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee

Mohammed, the black superman

Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can


Now all you fight fans, you've got to agree

There ain't no flies on Muhammad Ali

He fills the arena wherever he goes

And everyone gets what they paid for


Muhammad, was known to have said

You watch me shuffle and I'll jab off your head

He moves like the black superman

And calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can


He says I'm the greatest the worlds ever seen

The heavyweight champion who came back again

My face is so pretty you don't see a scar

Which proves I'm the king of the ring by far


Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali

He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee

Mohammed, the black superman

Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can


Sing, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali

He floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee

Muhammad, the black superman

Who calls to the other guy I'm Ali catch me if you can

I'm Ali catch me if you can

Combat Sports News


UFC @UFC Noche


Women’s flyweight champion Alexa Grasso defended her championship vs Valentina Shevchenko.


The bout went the distance with both competitors coping a bruising in the five-round affair.


Many MMA insiders and hardcore fans are asking questions about the judges scorecards.


A split draw! (48-47, 47-48, 47-47). You could see a look in the eyes of Shevchenko.


One judge giving Grasso the final round 10-8 despite Shevchenko dominating the majority of the round.


Shevchenko spoke with UFC/MMA living legend Daniel "DC" Cormier.


“I think it really was 3-2 on my side, but I think judges felt a little bit of pressure because it was Mexican Independence Day”.


“In a fair fight, in a fair competition, victory would be mine.”


They used to say in the fight game, "That's boxing", but now they may also say, "That's MMA in a foreign land", or something to that effect. We're all heard of the expression "hometown advantage", be it football, or other. A re-match appears on the cards, this time perhaps on U.S soil, or some other place. MMA will survive. Stay hungry!

MMA: The UFC Sean Strickland @SStricklandMMA era is here. Izzy has been advised by many to rest up, rethink his political allegiance and messaging with China. Will he ever live down the "Dog Day Afternoon" in Sydney, Australia! Pro MMA can be a dog eat dog business and SS's mind games got to "The Last Stylebender". Was the fight already lost for Izzy before the "Let's Fn Go"?


UFC Nucho in Mexico. Grasso vs Shevchenko. Draw says judges! Oops.  Re-match next time on U.S soil?! 


Hot Temp's In Sydney, Australia see pause on bush burn-offs likely for a few days as mini heatwave hits.


Water safety reminder: Beach, rockpools, anywhere around water. 


Work/Biz/Life Balance: If working with screens/computers try 15 mins break from screen for every hour on. Protect eyes, head, well-being. A walk around the block and an extra glass of water can work wonders. Water and coffee in the office (but not too close to keyboards)!


Washington, USA: Political basketcases?! USA set for an authentic leader in office. Many of the most suitable candidates work in private enterprise? Too good for the Oval Office?!  A bit like some in the land down under of Australia, but not quite as obvious.


New South Wales government of Australia scores big praise by Sydney, Australia sports loving fans. About 3 or so more UFC events to hit Sydney within the next 4 years. 


PPV (Pay-Per-View) business models, offerings to get some revamp thanks to TKO (WWE and UFC) deal; What percentage of WWE fans also watch at least some UFC? A higher percentage than the amount of UFC fans who also watch some WWE! Not all exactly or speculative numbers are in the public domain and can we suggest some are hidden - at least in part. Back in the Optus Vision days we used to get our hands on much raw data, thanks to my old bosses and the marketing and PPV department. Many industries have trade secrets, much like the Google Algorithm or KFC's "eleven secret herbs and spices"!


Alt news and niche news finding audiences in Australia, US, Canada, Europe, while many in society has tuned out or largely turned off "TV News" and other "mainstream aka lamestream"; Sky News Australia 

@SkyNewsAust

"Happy to help further spread the good and authentic news"..Anon journo type overheard around the watercooler.


24-hour News Cycle vs Always On via The Internet..


Too much news going on all the time? Part of the reason the Media Man Group often updates X 

@X

 (formally Twitter) and blogs such as Media Man Int Blogger and Media Man Blogger quicker than news going live to it's flagship websites.  Evergreen content strategy works a treat as well as unique perspectives and some gonzo journalism type reporting seldom found in mainstream news. The Google Algorithm is friendly to this business model so it's a Win-Win-Win!


Yes, we are still taking on some select PR and advertising campaigns. Email is if you have something you want the world to know about. There's an old expression that goes something like, "If you have the money we have the time"!


Seriously, we love the once great craft of journalism. The decline of the industry is well documented.. Hat's off to the authentic journos who continue to scribe and sniff out a good story. Journos vs AI! That's a big rabbit hole ain't it.

SEL YouTube September 2023


SEL's Nicola on YouTube AI. Alphabet/YouTube is on a roll..More great AI developments.. YouTube Shorts are working a charm for us. Brand logos/images rule.. Improved AI for content, movie and streaming show subtitles and more.. YouTube is now in contention for our 'Social Media Platform Of The Month' awards based on pure merit. YouTube getting on the front foot before X Corp goes ballistic with X and "The Everything App"..Will Amazon Prime Video, Dailymotion and/or Rumble have a counter hold and strike back at this? Stay tuned for the ongoing "social media wars" as we call them. The customer (and YouTube wins). 



SEJ Googles Search Relations September 2023


SEJ's Matt on domain names. Lots of considerations. All part of the branding experience and strategy. Many more elements to consider.. For example, we have a strong portfolio of names and websites and none of the names get old or out of date. The names from Media Man fit in with a wide array of matters, but it's obvious there's a strong news media perspective. Business and world conditions do change but news and media remains a staple of society and the web. Domain names and now websites remain very affordable so business entrepreneurs can take more risks without having to bet the ranch. Google Domains recently sold to Squarespace if you didn't hear already. That news broke approx 2 months ago. Keep spreading the risk, start spitfires and seize the day. Did we say be Google - Alphabet friendly? Yes, with the right amount of AI, X Corp, social media and so on. Trust the gut and use your head in the sometimes crazy world. Another winning number by Search Engine Journal. 



SEL Prepare For Season September 2023


SEL's Jonathan on peak season (for many, but not all) business, goods, services and other sectors. The vast majority of businesses have high and low sectors. We work in and around sports, combat sports, ads/pr, pop culture and related. An advantage of not having a shopfront, warehouse etc etc is the cost saving as well as risk minimization..In addition online news and information based outfits can plug into and generate what is widely know as "evergreen content"..For eg, this rich history of boxing, pro wrestling and martial arts never gets old or out of date. Sports business, sports memorabilia, sports content streaming and such remain popular all year round. This type of content can help drive online based sales of boxing and MMA gloves, mouthguards, home gyms, sports DVDs, ring attire and even broadcasting equipment such as podcast kits, Google Cast and you get the picture. Having previously owned a restaurant I'm all too aware of the challenges faced by many more traditional type businesses. SEO continues to be of benefit to most sectors. We're even helping out many agencies and their clients and associates with this as folks know the importance of it all year round. Spread the risk with paid, organic and other. Win-Win-Win!

Australian Sports and Politics Don't Mix finds Aussie PM, despite news media and sports media tip-off warnings



A tribute to the Matildas “incredible” World Cup run has been met with calls for a major injection of funding into the women’s game.


Aussie Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was one of the 75,000 fans who packed out to Sydney’s Olympic Park on Wednesday night to watch The Matilda's go down 3-1 in the semi-final.


Despite a number attempts on goal from captain Sam Kerr, including the moment of greatness in the 63rd minute that briefly tied the match, the Aussies couldn’t get over the line to put it mildly.


Post game Albanese was quick to run onto social media to lead the praise of the Matildas stars.


“You’ve given us all moments and memories that will last a lifetime,” he penned via X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.. you know, the bird is gone and its all about X!


“Every single Matilda has brought us joy throughout this @FIFAWWC. And I have no doubt that the next generation of Matildas were watching. We'll all be cheering for you on Saturday (in the play off for third).”


But some fans weren’t too pleased with Mr Albanese’s tribute, calling for him to put his money where his mouth is! 


Flip the bird and grab the ball and run with it. The balls in your court. So, you wanna mix politics and sports. Oil and water. You're in the oil river now. Sink deeper or swim.

Eastern Suburbs Media Blog: Link Building with Guest Blogging

Eastern Suburbs Media Blog


Link Building with Guest Blogging








When using search engine optimization (SEO) techniques, link building and guest blogging are often paired together to help consumers discover your content online. Consider combining building links and guest blogging to increase your website’s search engine rankings. Here is how guest blogging and link building work together to help achieve your SEO ranking goals:


Link Building and Backlinks


Building links is the process of acquiring hyperlinks from other websites to your own. These hyperlinks are called backlinks. Search engines consider backlinks as a vote of confidence from other websites. When a reputable website links to your site, search engines indicate that your content is valuable and trustworthy to users and other sites. This indication can boost your site’s authority and credibility. Your site’s authority and credibility can affect your standing in search engines. 


Guest Blogging


Guest blogging involves writing and publishing content on other websites that serve your niche or industry. A guest blog should contain backlinks within the content that link back to your website. You can help increase your SEO ranking by adding links to the proper keywords. These potential keywords or phrases will vary depending on the industry and niche. 


Be sure to do keyword research to help verify that your links and guest blogs reach the audience you want. Guest blogs should be high quality, informative, and useful to your audience. By publishing valuable content on other websites, you can reach a broader audience and gain exposure to new readers or customers. 


Authority and Relevance


Combining link building with guest blogging allows you to acquire backlinks and establish your authority in your industry. When you contribute high-quality content to authoritative websites, it increases your reputation and expertise in the eyes of users and search engines. This shows search engines that your website is relevant and valuable to users searching for related topics. Search engines look for experience, authority, and trustworthiness within a website. You can increase your SEO ranking by choosing guest blogs and backlinks that are relevant to your target audience. 


Backlink Profile


Having a diverse backlink profile is significant for SEO success, and you can use guest blogging as a strategy for building those links. Obtaining backlinks from various sources may appear better to search engines than having all your backlinks come from a single type of website. A diverse backlink profile shows search engines that many sources trust your website. Be sure that each backlink you obtain is from a reputable source. As you diversify your backlink profile, you may be more likely to reach a higher SEO ranking.


Organic Traffic


As you build more backlinks through guest blogging on reputable sites, your website’s overall domain authority and search ranking will likely improve. Higher rankings mean increased visibility in search engine results, which can lead to more organic traffic from users interested in your business. More organic traffic to your guest blogs can lead to more traffic on your website. Place backlinks on keywords where your readers may be more likely to click. You can link to your website’s contact pages, relevant blogs, or homepage.


Networking and Relationships


Guest blogging also helps you build relationships with other websites and writers in your industry. These relationships can lead to more link-building opportunities, co-marketing efforts, and collaborations, further enhancing your SEO efforts. Before choosing a guest blogging or link building relationship, research to make sure that your goals align with the site you are linking to. Be sure that each site is reputable and contains other high-quality links to trusted sites within your industry. 


Link Building Combined with Guest Blogging


As you create your link building and guest blogging strategies, avoid spammy or manipulative practices. This includes practices such as buying links or publishing low-quality links or content for the sole purpose of obtaining backlinks. Focus on quality and relevance in both guest blogging and link building. By focusing on these qualities, you are more likely to achieve a higher ranking among search engines. You can hire an SEO agency to help you build the proper backlinks and create quality content to match. Consider contacting a reputable SEO agency to assist with link building, guest blogging, and other SEO aspects to help reach your goals.
