I use AMA on my blogs. I have about 11 of them and I like that I am able to get fresh content for them every few days. It's amazing that some people try to add articles about hardwood floors on my blog: Minneapolis carpet installation. I allow it if they at least mention "carpet" 2 or 3 times, but most often they don't. I also have a PR4 "DOFOLLOW" political site: midlandtxgop.org and rarely am able to accept an article for it. People submit articles about electronics with little or no tie in to politics. All they would have to do is make a comment on one of the posts, and a link to their site would appear on the home page as a top commentator. So, now you can see the frustration on the other side.
That's okay, because a majority of the blog owners that join the network have it on auto accept, rather than check it every time - so your link usually gets accepted - at least 3-5 links per day per article in my experience. People don't try to put their content on certain websites, they just select a category and hit submit. The system automatically assigns the posts.
I have plenty of proof that AMA is definitely legit. I've seen plenty of backlinks and I've seen good SERPS action. Don't worry so much about what happens with one or two particular blogs that may have stripped out your links. That's small potatoes. Worry about the big picture. How many backlinks are showing up in Yahoo Site Explorer? What kind of rankings are you getting for your target KWs?
If you set to auto accept, wont you get, links to web sites that contain or promote pornography, violence, gambling, hate or illegal or questionable nature. I care about what kind of backlinks I get, I would have to check them out and if they don't meet my guidelines I don't accept them.
I haven't had a problem with that at all. On most of my blogs, the service works great. But on one of my sites (onekafloral.com), which is about flowers for example, I receive articles about gifts, jewelry, wine baskets, etc. Good articles, just not about flowers. I have added a paragraph at the bottom of the article tying in flowers and from what I understand that is acceptable. But, most people set it to auto approve and accept everything. On one of my other sites which is about home remodeling, nearly all the articles are a fit. Good luck, Dave
Nah - those industries aren't accepted with AMA. Remember, this is set up by the PLRPro guys - they have high standards.
I just took a look at my most published articles on AMA and I found that a number of them have been published over 200 times and my average article has been published over 100 times. Right now I have three favorite article submission services and AMA is definitely among those three (the other two are Unique Article Wizard & Article Ranks.)
