One of the most frequently asked questions that I get from bloggers is where do I find the time to write as much as I do and where do I get all of the ideas to write about? Many and perhaps most bloggers struggle to find ideas and even if they have the right ideas they struggle to find the time to write the articles. So their blogs languish and may only be updated every few weeks. Blogs that are neglected like that tend not to generate loyal readers and don't rank as highly in the search engines as they could because they aren't as active and don't have as much content.

So where does a typical blogger get more ideas and more time? Rather than trying to find the ideas and time to write your own blog entries each and every time, why not allow guest writers to take some of the load off of your shoulders? By having guest writers, you'll get free career-related content for your blog and the more content you have, the more pages you create. The more pages you have, the more likely it is that you'll have the right keyword phrase that someone types into Google, Yahoo, MSN, or any of the search engines and that will generate free traffic for your site. But even if they don't go to that new page, web sites with more pages rank higher in the search results because the search engines believe that larger sites are more likely to have the information being sought by the people using the search engines.
