Great question! Sponsored blog posts are similar to guest posts but differ in a couple different ways.

With sponsored posts there is usually a financial factor, so the company or brand has paid you to post their content (or content written by you on their behalf) to your blog. Also, these posts are typically overtly promotional, pointing out the features of that specific product/brand. Many times, product reviews are sponsored posts.

For guest posts, these are usually not paid, and the guest poster is providing you a written article for your blog with the expectation that you will leave a dofollow link back to their website thus building their authority.

Thanks for the post. I have a query on the following lines: “Sponsored blog posts are articles published by other people on your blog.” I feel that this definition is similar to guest posts. Can you clarify the difference between guest posting and sponsored blogs?

Thanks in advance

Thanks Mike! 🙂

Categories exist so that you can be able to create a website with a lot of different content! You just need to give it a good thought about what categories are important and how much time you can dedicate to creating content for each of them.
