Excellent numbers! Still I would say 539 is on a lower side when comparing with 95K subscribers. But, when I look in to my blog, 539 is a too high a number from a single referral site in two days.

Jeff,

 

I know this is an old post, so hoping you'll still see it.  When you submitted to GRS, did you get any acknowledgement that they had received the post, or just one when they had it scheduled?  I ask because I sent something over about a week ago, and am wondering if I just need to buckle down and wait the 90 or so days and keep an eye out for it to go live, or whether I'll hear something from them at some point.

 

Thanks!

BB I got the first ack. after two months and still waiting for the date to be communicated, two and a half months after submission. It's mad rush out there.

Thanks.  From the way Jeff made it sound, that's kind of what I expected, so I guess I'll just wait them out.  They're very popular it seems.  ;)

Someone had emailed me with a similar question.  Tried to find my response, but couldn't.  Here's a roundabout what I said…..

Yes, it takes time.   J.D. and I have "known" each other for several years.  I've already guest posted on his site in the past.  When his book came out he advanced me a copy to see if a "CFP" would find any flaws in it.  We also both do Crossfit :) 

I'm not saying this to brag, just to show you that we have some history together.

When I emailed him about my previous guest post idea, he had said that it might actually go live the following week – I was blown away!  I guess he didn't expect another post to be done in time but it did.   From the day that I first contacted him about the post, it took just about 3 months to get published. 

If I recall, I gave him a nudge or 2 (I think just one) just making sure he thought the post was still a good fit for his site.  He responded fairly quickly and reassured me it would go up. 

They have so much content that I suspect that they could schedule out 3 months in advance 7 days a week (and probably longer).

 

Good luck!!

Still pretty cool numbers. I tried to get a post up a while ago and he worked with me a few mails back and forth but ultimately rejected my first submission which was a shame.

I'm on a guest post kick again this year and will try and climb up the ladder back to some of these huge blogs.

Vist me at Frugal Zeitgeist…. Frugal and Sustainable Living for the now…

Very well done, Jeff. What can I say – an inspiration.
