Definitely sounds like a sponsored guest post, though the .org part throws a little ringer in it. Check out their website first and see if they are making any money from their business (and because it says credit repair, I suspect they are).

I received an email from an ed @ creditrepair (dot) org ….. has anyone ever received anything from him about guest posting? The site has an Alexa ranking below 200k, which is better than my site, he isnt Yakezie…and it wasnt an automated email trying to pawn off a product.
What do you guys think? Should I just give him a free guest post and see whats up…? Im guarded because of all the spam I get, and that I havent had anyone guest post on my site yet.
Thanks!

Yep, Ed from CreditRepair contacted me this week about a guest posting, too. Is he using Yakezie as his own personal marketing list?

1 of mine turned into a ad sale, but most do not!

There was a thread on this – search for Oakview or jack reed. This company has been trying for months to do a guest post emailing me as different personalities.

I am about to write a bit of a rant post about Guest Post e-mails, I don't like Cold Calls about Insurance or Newspapers, why would I like them attempting to add things to my small business?

Update on my spammer: I sent the email offering to do the post for a sponsorship fee. She emailed back and said she couldn't pay a fee, but would provide a link on her PR 2 site. I said no; I only take posts from personal blogs. I thought that was the end of it.
So this morning I get a poorly written article and a link to this horrible link farm blog – not a single post comment, all followers have similar link farm blogs with poorly written articles probably pulled from Wikipedia or something. Also, while the email came from "Michelle Davis," the blog is run by "Sara James." And most of the links go to another blog run by "Veronica Brown." For all the time these people spend churning out fake content under multiple fake names, they could probably have an actual blog.
It makes me want to bang my head on something! So frustrating! I think my response this time might have gotten rid of her, though.
