As someone who does public relations for companies, I’m sure you carefully pick your bloggers for the pitch. Bloggers have to weed out the crap and PR pros need to find the right people for the job. The job of someone who does blogger outreach can be difficult. We both have difficult jobs. That’s just fine.

So a link from a high authority site like The New York Times will be more powerful than a link from a low authority site, for example, a new site with no inbound links of its own. Please take a look at the example below. Nofollow links also matter. The nofollow attribute gives search engines instructions not to follow the link.

As a blogger, you probably do not have the luxury of having a staff of people to work for you. My thesis is simple: for the majority of bloggers, the time and effort invested on social media is better spent than time spent on SEO. This doesn’t bode well for bloggers, however. Blogger authority is first hand authority.
