Submitting my articles to article directories

    So I was going to submit my articles to article directories, but also read that you can be penalized for content that is not unique. I plan on having these articles on my site but I was going to submit a few to about 33 or so relevant article directory sites to help link build a bit. So I was wondering if I would be penalized someway? If this was a good idea? And the benefits and risks of using such a method. Any helpful responses will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Thanks but no thanks, if I wanted a service to submit my articles I'd go to the buy, sell, trade section..... I can submit them myself.

    You may or may not be penalized but I can tell you that you will have MUCH better results using unique articles. The point is to have other websites pick up your article because it's something new and fresh.

    Like the last poster I run a service and I only use unique content or it's a wast of time.

    Yeah you most likely won't be penalized, unless you consider not getting the benefit from the article a penalty, but you'd be best off IMO only submitting articles you aren't putting on your site.

    I don't think it's a good idea to submit content that's on your site to article directories. Article directories are great but unique content on your site is, IMO, better.

    Benefits of submitting articles is a little bit of traffic (unless it's a sweet article) and some links to the site.
    Risks would mostly likely just be that you're hurting your sites authority by not allowing it to have its own content.

    I'd recommend doing a new page on your site a few days a week or more and submitting articles a few days.
