EGOL, someone I highly respect at Cre8asite Forums posted a thread about his recent fear or anxiety around accepting guests posts, despite the quality of it, due to Google’s Penguin update.

He said that he heard that accepting articles with credit links at the bottom would get him in trouble with the Google Penguin update. Honestly, I thought Penguin was mostly about external incoming links, not internal links.

Here is what EGOL wrote:

Do you think EGOL and other publishers need to worry?

There are tons and tons of quality sites that accept guest posts and give credit to the author through a link to their web site.
