1. If I upload articles to my blog and the same articles to an article directory [ EZine ] Is It ok or should I rewrite the articles? 2. What Is the 1 sentence tip for good SEO that you can give me? Thanks!!
1. Rewrite the articles. Since the article site have better authority than your site, the article site will easily outrank you for the same content. So write high quality articles for your site. 2. Write for the people and not the search engines. With time, your site will rank good.
There is no need to rewrite the articles - most (except for Buzzle) will allow the same one to be submitted as long as you are the original author. You should always post it to your blog first and let it get indexed there though, otherwise, your site may not get credit for it.
Well ezines have been pretty hit by the panda updates, and i have to say most of the article directories. But the ones that i have seen not much affected is squidoo. Its not the fact that the same article shall be accepted to the article directories. They will be. They dont even run a scan of your article with the entire web to find any duplicates. What i said is that if you dont rewrite, since both the article site and his site have the same content, and the article site having greater authority, will easily outrank his site.
No - it will not, hence getting it indexed first.... once again, there is no need to rewrite the article.
That's funny - 872 non-rewritten articles submitted to EZA, amongst others - none of which outrank my websites.... If you want to do article marketing correctly, you submit it to your site first, let it get indexed there and then syndicate the content - you will NOT be outranked by an article directory. This has been discussed to death both here and on WF and people that know how to use article marketing effectively do it this exact same way and have done for a long time already.
