Articles links Question?

Often directory links are bought but anyone buys links from article directories as well or there is no such thing?

 

The articles link are more important to SE, cuz they are best. That's because the link comes from a content page, the bot goes throu all the textwith keywords on it and lands on your page with the same keywords. Well, we all know that this makes sense, right? I think that is the main reason why articles links are more important to SE then these from Directory.

Some High PR directories are more helpful then some articles ones, but only the ones with higher PR. Such as Alloftheweb of Dmoz. There is no doubt about it.

 

Ive just started to use article dir's and so far so good, and it can get you niche keywords high in the serps if done right. A lot of dir's allow anchor links, but I've not seen any charging for the service.

 

Article links are good, since they are free, well you write content, and you can have the exact anchor text in a contextual text.

 

article submission in article directories are very important to increase traffic for the site and visibality in SERP's.

 

the point of submitting articles is to get free links, so why would you buy them?

p.l.u.r.

 

No ... you only get credit for the keywords in the anchor text to your link. If the page the link is from has better PR because of the content, the link will carry more weight, but that isn't the case for articles that show up as duplicate and fall into the supplemental index.

 

It's not the case because all linking pages from article directories are coming with PR0.

And where did you hear about submitting article due to duplicate content? You are saying that submitting will drop your rankings?

 

Does anyone of you used ONLY article submissions for their high rankings?

If yes, how much, per week, per month.. and what kind of rankings?

I want live proofs

Thanks

also same with link directory. most of the page you put your link are PR0 too. ^^ so no matter which way it still count as back links. ^^

 

I get around 40 to 50 new articles per day submitted in my directory.
That is bcoz people want free article links.

 

Articles are good method of gaining links but also traffic. I don't see the point of buying links from articles sites when you can submit an article and get some links for free.

 

And everybody it's happy.... right?

 

links from article directory can be a source of traffic but I don't think it can help you increase your backlinks and improved your rankings. Because I as of now I don't see any article directory which is consider as backlinks.

What's your comment on that?

 

Links from article directories are considered as links.

In fact, I managed to get a PR4 solely from article directory links.

 

In the past article directories were good for free links. Now however, it's a completely different story. Google has really clamped down on duplicate content. And you can take a look at any article over a month old, and most of them would have been thrown in the supplementary index if they posted it on any other websites or article directories.

I don't have the time to get into it. But, show me any example of a single article being submitted to 50+ directories where even 10% of the articles stay out of the supplementary index for over a month, because I can't find one. I've been doing extensive research on this, and in the past few months Google has gotten MUCH stricter about this. Of course it will take a while for the SEO community to realize this method of creating backlinks no longer works.

Me too. But you can't reach PR5 with this kind of links... as many as you'll have..

I had very good rankings with this kind of links, for both me and my clients...so I guess you should reconsider this type of links... they are very good for your site and very cheap also.

 

I have no idea where you came up with that, it's not even close to what I wrote.

The five dozen sites that run your article ... all but one of them will be seen as duplicate, no? If you don't agree with that, you might need to look up what duplicate means. So, there are a bunch of new PR 0 pages with duplicate content that Google is going to put into their supplemental index at best. That's not going to help you very much, if at all.

Now we can both agree that not helping much or at all is a totally different thing than hurting you, right? Not going up in the rankings is different from going down in them. Should be pretty easy to understand...

 

Links from articles is better than just directory links. It gives more impact to other users and yet, they would put your site's link in their sites.

 

Bingo- we got a winner. That's exactly my experience.
