    Guess blogging is a great idea. Some people use it in order to get backlinks but I like to do it in order to get known in my field.

    I received a lot of compliments from the posts I wrote in my friends blogs. I usually write one guest post per month.

    I don't have much time but I try to write them as often as possible.
