Article Marketing For Clickbank

Hello, I have a doubt.

I know google hate duplicated content.

But, from my local forum, someone, a so called respectable guru in my country when it comes to clickbank said...

"Doesn't matter the duplicate content, submit the article to as many blogs, websites, and article directory you can."

And when we ask, will we be penalized for duplicated content and then the rank will be lowered?

He answers "You want to rank in google or you want sales?"

How true is his answer?
Or should I always stick to Google Webmaster Guidelines regarding duplicated content?

 

There is no penalty for submitting your content to as many sites/directories as you want. Content is only duplicate when it appears on the same site twice.

Someone correct me if I am wrong.

 

Onlinemoniez is correct. I have never been penalised for submitting the same article to different directories. The reason you do this is for the link juice to your main article, the other article directories are not used for traffic they are used to boost your main article higher in google.

Hi, pete how you're doing?
I finally start my own Clickbank journal after following your thread and then now your blogs... But I think you should atleast use SMF forum or a true forum script for your forum...
Thanks, I am following your article marketing style!
But sometimes there's doubt that I would post on forums all over the world...


When you say the main article, you mean your landing page which lead to the sales page don't you?

 

Hi Pangeran

How's it going? Firstly Yeah the forum I am in the midst of changing at the moment. The integration didn't work that well.

With regards to main article. I mean either your EZA article or articlesbase article, which ever one you use as your main directory.

For example if you use EZA submit the article to EZA then submit the same article to other article directories with a link back to your EZA article. That will give you link juice back to your main article boosting the EZA article higher up the search engines.

well... for duplicate content... you won't get banned, but there is no logic that a link from duplicate content could represent quality backlink.

 

For some reason it's ok..but morally is wrong. If you cant write article just modified article and it will be yours

 

I mean, I write my own unique article... but then I post it to article directories all around the world...

 

It's ok when writing unique article or modified some article at least 40% changing

 

Dont be lazy!

I ALWAYS rewrite articles, at least the one from EZA if i want to submit to GA and AB, or make a squidoo page around a subject.

 

Squidoos, and no other web 2.0 property gets indexed on its own. All of them want backlinks to get indexed, increasing our headache.

Edit: Do you guys think that it is just a matter of time before the article directories will start showing the same behavior? That is, the articles won't get indexed on their own? I do believe in this..

 

Its not hard to get any article/web 2.0 site indexed,building backlinks helps and passess some link juice to your main site.

 

duplicated content doesnt matter i make $200-£400 a week using copy and paste i have never written an original article in my life.

 

If you've never used an original article, and you copy and paste as stated. Where do you get your copied and pasted content from?

 

The thing I notice about these free or cheap PLR articles is whenever I copied/paste a sentence in Google to check for duplicates, I find most of them are in blogcatalog, linkroll, and other article websites already.

So, whenever you buy those cheap PLR articles, at least make an effort to spin/edit it a bit.

 

Main article should be unique and the others should be spun a bit and link back to your main to boost the ranking.

 

i really dont think this is anything to be proud of actually.

 

If you are talking about submitting to article directories, duplicate content does not matter. If 100 people download your content from article directory, there is a 100 duplicates anyway.

 

Submitting to many article sites is fine if they actually will get you page views. The goal is to get your information in front of as many people as possible. After you have had an article live for a while, check the stats. If you have had few page views, either the article was bad or the site isn't right for you.
