    Upload an article to ezine and then wait a bit and upload it to one of your posts? Is this duplicate content? DOes anyone do this? Or do you always create new things

    I would probably at least rewrite it if you are going to post it on your site. You have to be realistic about what you are trying to do with article marketing, in my opinion. So posting content on ezinearticles is a good thing for many businesses. However, I think you would be better served if your website is content related to place the content you produce on your own site. At minimum, I would ensure that you are providing something unique at your website that is not anywhere else. Because otherwise, what would be the point of going to your website if they can get everything at ezinearticles.com?

    It won't do you any harm, but it also won't do you any good as far as search engine rankings are concerned

    Don't forget, people republish ezine articles to their own webpages all the time just for the sake of adding more useful content for their visitors

    I think you're doing it the wrong way round - post it on your site/blog - make sure it gets cached - when it's 'out of date' - in that you've put a new post on your own site - put a version on article sites.

    Yes, but why would you want to double post it. You are only hurting yourself. You should put a link in the article back to your site.

    There are lots of software or services that you can spin your articles before submitting to different sites. Article marketing not just getting visitors from article directories.

    With different articles submit to different directories will increase your site / articles backink and push it to google page 1 easily with the right "long tail keyword".

    This will provide lots of free organic traffic for your site for years to come

    It's not possible always to rewrite the article, but when you can it is very good. If you have the same text it will probably be considered duplicate content and google will keep only one of all the articles.

    I've tried 3 different article re-writers so far and I've found out they were all garbage. There are no easy ways of rewriting articles and it's probably faster to just manually rewrite articles than be using "the magical article re-writers". If you want backlinks, what you are doing is fine and you don't need worry about any penalty from google. I would post my article on my blog first, get it indexed, and then submit it to ezine. I would much rather get the article on my blog to rank well than the same copy on ezine.

    I agree that the first step is putting it on your blog.
