Guest blogging, guest posting, call it as you like. At Boarding Today, we like to work with people who like to get their unique story out. We are happy to hear your stories and post your life-changing experiences working as a digital nomad or experienced traveler.

Why guest blogging?

For a blogger, there are several advantages of guest posting:

Getting quality traffic

Being a guest blogger on Boarding Today will create a new source of traffic to your website.

Backlinks

A high rank in the search engines, don’t we all would like that? The domain authority is an important factor in the way google looks at a blog. Incoming links (backlinks) to your domain are an important element in improving the ranking.Every time a guest blog is published, you create a new link to your blog via the bylines.

As your post on Boarding Today will start a dialogue with a new audience than the one that visited your blog in the past, you’ll get new insights, new eyes and maybe even new fans.
