I've been trying to figure out if im allowed to place articles from sites like Ezinearticles on a blogspot page and attach adsense ads to them, if i leave the authors byline intact. can someone help?
I've got a site up where I mix both EzineArticles.com articles and re-written PLR articles. I do nclude the byline from the article directory articles, and I've never had a problem from Google. The site I'm talking about has been up for about three years.
Give respect to the authors btw ezine articles would rank above your website in organic search.@Michael Thorsett,what would you feel if i am just copy pasting your written articles to ebooks and earning couple of bucks.
As long as you included my resource box (which is required per the TOS at EzineArticles.com and I imagine other article directories), I would have no problem with it. In fact, I would welcome the added exposure, which would in turn drive traffic to my website. Would you like a link to my articles at EzineArticles.com so you can do this? Alternatively, you can search there under my name, Michael Thorsett.
Many websites are doing like what you said. But I think Google may penalize your website for duplicate content.
