About this listen

What if guest blogging didn’t die—it evolved? In this episode, inspired by GrowthRocks’ article Guest Blogging is Dead." we explore the deeper shifts behind this once-powerful content strategy. Has the pursuit of backlinks overshadowed the original intent of sharing ideas and building community? Or has the changing digital landscape simply forced us to ask better questions about what value really means?

We reflect on the tension between reach and relevance, traffic and trust, and ask: In a world dominated by SEO and algorithms, can guest blogging return to its roots as a form of thoughtful exchange?

Topics Covered:

  • The decline of guest blogging as an SEO loophole
  • Why intent matters more than tactics in content strategy
  • The role of trust, authority, and real relationships in modern guest posts
  • How Google’s evolving stance redefines “valuable” content
  • Rethinking success: backlinks vs. brand credibility
  • Guest blogging as a philosophical shift—from transaction to contribution
