Using Article of Differnet Topic to Create Potent Backlink??

    I've just analyzed my competitors backlinks....

    And saw that he had an article on Ezine that was about one topic, but within the author bio, he used that space to create the anchor text for another term. The second term was related, but not the same.

    Example:

    Article on Dog Food but at the end he has Dog Food and Dog Training as anchor text.

    So this article likely helps his site rank for Dog Food AND Dog Training, correct?

    Do many people do this with articles?

    IMO,
    It's not an good idea to submit article in article directories.
    Just publish on your website, you will get better results than you are going to submit in other article directories.

    I think quite a few people do this with articles. You can use the resource box where you link to your site to say things on a different topic. It's not as good as a link from within the larger body of text within the main article but it is a link nevertheless.

    I did this,the reason for that is there are some article sites who do not allow link in articles,instead they give option of adding link in resource box.

    Yes,link in a article is more worthier than link in a resource box,but anyway it is a good optimization technique.

    Please explain this to me.

    If the same article is published in several different articles sites, then you have that much more exposure, even if it is duplicate contents. It's an article and not posted on your website. Thanks
