No need to waste time pitching people that will take forever to respond.

Using the Moz Bar Google Chrome extension, you'll also be able to see the domain authority as well as backlinks for each site accepting guest posts in your niche. Assuming the majority of websites linking to your site have domain authority (DA) less than 40, this tool will help you to uncover guest posting sites with higher domain authority (40 - 90+) without tedious spreadsheet data entry.

And the best part you can start using it right now!
