However, as finding such sites can be a little tricky, you can use the search hacks mentioned below to discover them.
Keyword/Your competitor name “guest blog”
When you’re searching using your keyword, you get niche-relevant sites that allow guest posts.
On the other hand, searching for your competitor’s guest blogs allows you to find the sites that they have used to guest post on.
It’s easy to see why using both is useful and necessary to get a competitive SEO advantage.
Other search operators that you can use for this include:
Keyword/Your competitor name “guest blogger”

Getting Links from Resource Pages

With that said, here’s how to search for this type of link building opportunities.
Keyword “top resources”/”top 10 resources”

.Getting Links from Sites That Allow Listing Useful Sites
There are many sites in different niches that list useful sites in the niche. Many times, they are just directories, but if they haven’t been spammed and are relevant to your niche, they may still turn out to be pretty useful.
You can use the following search hacks to discover sites in your niche that may allow you to list your site.
Keyword “add a site”/”submit a site”/”suggest site”/”post site”/”recommend site”
