  I’m trying to make my blog as good as possible and now want to let my readers guest blog on my tech blog, but I don’t know where to start.

  I don’t know if I need to create guidelines for guest blogging or something before I allow guest bloggers to publish on my site.

  Thanks,
  Tom

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Would be a good idea

  Timethief has guest bloggers email her the Post and she puts it in her site and gives credit to the person that wrote the article – she does not have anyone else on her blog (Contributor, Author etc.) – some bloggers do have writers that have access to the dashboard – but you need to be real careful when you do that, and give them the lowest privileges possible. For instance an Editor can delete all the content from your blog. A second Admin can delete the blog completely

  I was thinking of putting a custom form on one of my pages and letting people submit there guest posts that way. Is this a good idea?

  Replace “there” with “their” in that last comment.

  I would use email – at least that gives you an address that works to – I get people wanting to do guest Posts on my site from time to time, they ask using the contact form – the proposals have all been thinly disguised ad for their own business – I did not bother to answer back

  I guess someone could paste something into a large text box on the contact form – but there will probably be some editing and back and forth –

  Be very careful of just putting something on without fact checking the Post – even if it is credited as a guest post – the credibility of your site will go up or down depending on how good any guest post is

  MOST people who ask to guest blog do it so they can put affiliate links in your content. Screen carefully.
