Articles = JUICY Backlinks!!

A very informative conversation.

 

Good articles can give you better backlinks but it should be according to your site.

 

Hmm i have always been under the impression that Writing Articles really helps your inbound links! If article submission is not the way forward, whats the best solution to get good quailty inbound links?

IMO, article marketing is a great technique in getting traffic as well as getting exposure for your site and its services as well as a backlink for the site.

I believe its not outdated but a strong technique .

 

Thats the impression i have always had too!! Hmmm im confused! lol

 

Don't get confused ? See if i have a site on stock trading and among my main keyword is stock trading, then i would be writing an article about stock trading and submit it to ezinearticles.com giving stock trading as a title to the article as well as giving stock trading as a keyword link back to my site in the resource box.Its that simple.

hope this helps !

 

writing articles can give you backlinks but you need to rewrite each of them, if not, useless...

 

I'm still not exactly sure how Google treats duplicate content. I use Article Marketer to bulk distribute many of my articles to hundreds of directories. The first week of submission I get about 20-30 results showing in the primary search results. After a few more weeks they are relegated to the supplemental results. None of them show up when using the link: operator. But they still help to boost my serp ranking for the targeted term. If I don't submit an article for a few weeks, I drop down 20 - 100 positions in the serp for the keyphrase. Ah, the mysterious inner workings of Google!

 

Article writing is a good way to gain back links. Article directories generally are not. If you do write an article for article directories make sure its on a very good article site, which gets read and gets page rank on its internal pages.

When I write articles for back links I actually talk to leading sites in my field and ask if they would like a free, well researched article (think 1500 plus words). Quite often they say yes, this gets me very high quality links from big sites. One article I did last month sent us around 40 clients (not views, clients, this is big money in my field).

Generally its better to write content and place it on your site then on other peoples sites, after all that increases your content, long tail traffic, and linkability. We generally create around 15 pages of content for every article we publish outside our site.

 

so you wrote article for your website (not article directories)? Then how you published your contents?

 

articles is good but with article directories its useless,
send your quality articles to quality sites according to your site content
this will be better, google doesnt like directories i think,

 

I search in google on some of my main keywords, find sites that look open and friendly then look for a contact us page. One site we contacted in this way was Guardian.. They still haven't gotten around to publishing the series we did for them, but I'm eagerly awaiting the links

 

Article with rich content is really good on link building

 

Articles = JUICY Backlinks!! No more..

 

Hey there,

Saying that articles give no traffic is rediculous.

I created a simple article describing how to build an interactive map search. Then, I submitted it to digg.com just to see how effective it would be. I had 50 visitors from this article before it started to sink into the digg search results.

If you wrote a quality article that rose to the top of the most popular articles in digg.com, how much traffic do you think you would get? I would say 5,000+ visitors.

Traffic does not always equal money. You have to place keywords in your articles so that the traffic that does come to your website will be more interested in what you are having to say.

For instance, if I am selling computer parts and write an article about some celeb's latest indecent exposure, sure I would get some traffic, but how long before that visitor browses to something else?

Articles can give JUICY backlinks (PR Juice) if a nofollow attribute is not used on your backlink. Otherwise, you will get no PR Juice from this article but you still may get some traffic.

Thats my two cents.

Sincerely,
Travis Walters

 

I just recently purchased some backlinking article posting, so I'll let you guys know if it does anything for my site... I should know in a few weeks... I dunno the way I see it is, it doesn't hurt to try.

 

I think that the latest evolution in article posting would be guest writing for a blog or website, in return for a nice link back to your own website via an anchor text of your choice. It is a win-win situation for both the website you're guest posting on (they get good, original content), while you get some PR goodness, especially if that website is quite established. Not to mention the traffic that could flow to your own website.

 

I think it's called "Digg" now.

 

What makes you think so...

 

For me I rather blog the articlesthan creating articles and submit to article directories... Blogging is the effective ways of promoting site... Making article is just a waste of time if it is not unique and a quality one...
