Self-promotion is tempting but its the first thing to avoid on someone's blog for starters. Then, a good guest post should be to-the-point, short and made most relevant to the blog you are posting in. 500 words is the maximum if its your first post on that blog. Finally, another good practice is to refer to other posts on that blog as this way you are a natural fit as opposed to just a peripheral addition.
