Article Distribution - how much is too much?

[Vozzek]

Hi all,

Somewhere on this great forum I read that article distribution over too many sites is bad, and this makes sense in terms of duplicate content being re-published so many times it dilutes the article's SEO value.

I've been submitting about two articles a week to the following article submission sites for the last two months:

Ezine
ISnare
GoArticles
A1Articles
Articledepot.co.uk
Article Dashboard
Article Nexus
ArticleCity
ArticleHub
ArticleBar
ArticleFinders (just found this one, actually)

On Isnare, I've selected the 'distribution' option (small fee) for each article. Should I continue to do that, or do you think it's not a wise idea? Submitting to about 10 sites - is that good enough? And if so, should I still vary the article text, or is it okay to submit duplicate article content to that many sites?

Last question: How many article site submissions is too many? My site has about 2,000 backlinks at this point (that google recognizes in the webmaster tools), and I read somewhere that you shouldn't have too great a percentage of your backlinks coming from article sites. Am I going a little overboard, or am I not yet near that point?

Your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks!

I have found the more the better.. dont believe everything you read. I use multiple distribution services, isnare, ezine, article trader and one found on this board. Sending to as many article directory's as possible has worked out very good for me I do this for all my sites.

Of course don't have just article directory links coming to your site you should be using all valid types of link sources and not just one type.

Hey there :)

Don't just rely on the article links - you need to get a wide range of different link types.

article, directory, social bookmarks

These are the easy ones to get though, consider them the bread and butter.

Feel free to PM me and I'll tell you the others you should be going for.

... dont believe everything you read.

Zingo, this is very good advice. ;)

Thinkaboutit, consider yourself PM'd.

Submit to has many as possible. Not only are you receiving a backlink but for every article published you have the chance to receive a visitor. There are people lurking all over the internet :)

[seosheen]

yes submit as many as you can to get traffic on your site.
