Do automatic article submitters work?

    Here is what I have done over the past two years and I have done pretty well in my niche.

    1. I have built about a dozen sites and there are links here and there to one or the other. (Some say my method doesn't work... that I should just build one site and write a new page for each keyword... but my strategy has worked pretty well, I think.)
    2. I have a few blogs that I have written a few articles. (Need to write more posts, I suppose.)
    3. I use PPC sites.

    A friend has tipped me off to automatic article submitter software. I assume that this is to spin off articles by taking an article I write and spinning off more articles from that base article. Do these work? I don't want to do anything that could penalize what I have going now. If I have to write more articles from scratch myself, I could do that but I don't have as much free time for this as I wish I had.

    My tip is to use the top 10 article directories. You dont need to rely on automation of submissions at all. Traffic from a great article site is equals to the traffic you can get from 8 article sites combined!

    What are the top 10? I assume you mean I should actually write a good article and submit it to the top 10? Instead of using an article spinner software.

    It depends on how you spin your article and how many are submitted a day. The more unique the better. Too many submissions in a day isn't good either. I use link juicer to spin and submit articles and blog posts. This seems to be working because I only have it submit a few a day.

    Automatic submission tools are good as long as they work, many of the throw errors when the article site webmaster updates his site or changes the submission url once in a while, being an article site webmaster myself, i can tell you i keep tweaking and changing the urls once in a month here and there and also to keep the spammers away, who does bot submissions just to get some links.

    Manual submission is something which will give you the surety that "yes, my submission went through" but with automatic tools, you have to keep your fingers crossed and if the tool you are planning to buy is being updated regularly then it makes sense, else the tool will become junk in 3 months time, as article sites come and go, some live some die.

    And, though i do approve articles even if they are submitted with automatic tools, but an experienced article site webmaster can tell in a second after seeing the submitted article whether it was submitted with a tool or with hand, so you are reducing your chances of approval further.

    Yes, further it works very well with auto approval mode article directories, but those are generally very few and some are very low profile junk directories, so that is another waste of time.

    I agree with you! But doing a manual submissions is really effective for me because you can see and check whether it has been submitted or not.

    Like anything it depends on how well you do the job. Personally I would not interlink my own sites, or if I was going to I would at least do everything I could to make sure that Google don't realize I own the various linked properties.

    Article submitters work if you do them properly, but that takes quite a bit of time, you cant just use auto spinning and hope that you are still going to get your articles actually show up (or be read) from the article directories.

    But I do well with Google. So, does that mean they did not penalize me? How would I know if they "caught" me linking to my own sites? Since I rank well with some keywords, I assume that they have not "caught" me?

    You may not be being penalized but are you getting any benefit ?

    They may expect you to link between your own sites to some degree (its only natural for you to promote other sites you own after all) so they wont punish you for it.

    But if they think (for example) you are creating sites purely to create reliable stable content orientated back links to your main sites for the purpose of SERP manipulation, that is the point where they will likely step in and punish you.

    If your just having a link your footer to other sites you own, that arent on the same topic, and are just using it to help generate actual traffic between your sites rather than for SERP manipulation you will probably be fine.

    Manual submission is the good idea for Article Submission Process.

    You should use an easyarticlespinner.net to make more variations for your articles so you can submit them into directories. In terms of submission, I dont recommend automation. You can make more out of those submissions if you do it manually.

    It is usually not worth the risk. Just submit your articles to the top 10 directories or so and leave it at that. Blasting articles out to 100s of directories is a sure way to get kicked off Google.

    automatic submitting is not working good from me. the acceptance rate is too low. i prefer to submit a spinned copies to top 20 directory. you can try our free spinner it will save you a lot of time, check my signature.

    Manual submissions is still the best. you can take advantage of the resource boxes left out by those automatic submitters. Easyarticlespinner.net is a good spinner. Spin and submit the variations to the top directories.
