Since this site is about link building and SEO, the first part of this post is going to discuss what kind of link juice you can expect from doing guest blogging.

I realize there always so much to do and learn with SEO, link building, marketing etc… so this post will be devoted to one thing and one thing only; making the Twitter Link wheel.
