what do you think is better any why? submitting articles to article sites with your backlinks or setting up blogs on blogspot, vox etc.. and adding articles there with links does google still value article sites now and value backlinks? i think free blogs are better for backlinks as it looks more natural
hmm new blogs have no in links but neither do new articles on article sites i think article sites dont hold as much weigh in google anymore blogs look more natural as long as the content is unique
You should submit your article, and put it on a blog. Having one duplicate of your content doesn't hurt.
I think blog posts are much better. Article site pages usually are very underlying , where the blog posts will be in home page for some days
http://www.ezinearticles.com is the best article site to use to give you good quality links. Personally though i prefer to comment on do follow blogs
yeh i agree do you think it would be best to use different blog hosts and not just blogger or wordpress it may look like link farming otherwise yeh i do but would like to use my own content for more relevant backlinks
Free article sites are better than free blogs. Write a longer version and post it on your site and provide a short version for the article sites. Make sure that the content gets indexed on your site first. Before you start the article submissions.
Try both of them, it's the matter of course of good content. Soon new blogs will gain PR as well as submitted articles might later get PR too.
The Google algo is constantly changing and what works today may not work tomorrow and vice-versa. The issue is time and money. Content creation costs one or the other. Most of the article sites and free blogs don't flow that much pr. I think it would be better to create a blog to support your site rather than giving the content away.
I think article submission to directories is better because established article directories means the new pages get indexed more easily than if you setup a new blog and add the same article there. Another thing is the time factor because you don't need to worry on working on site design if you choose to submit to article directories.
The backlink from the article directories (like ezine) is better than the one from blog. I get a lot of targeted traffic from them and the chances of PR juice passing to your site will be higher...
It is better to have content on blogs rather than on article sites which have less of a value in google
Why not do both ? I have 2 blogs and submit to over 50 article directories. I am only new to all this but my backlinks have been building up nicely over the past 3 months and before you blow me away every article directory gets a unique article, so there is no worries of duplicate content.
