Article submission is one of the best examples of getting dofollow links for you site. But i have one question about article submission - that people submit a single article to various article directories and they also get approved. this means that number of pages having exactly same content which means duplicate content. Does getting dofollow links for these pages is good or does it hamper rankings in SERP.
Yes this could be hamper to rank well in search engine. If search engine found any duplicate content they penalty it & your backlink will be mark as spam. If this happend chance to be decreased your page rank.
yes I agree with imdadc Yes this could be hamper to rank well in search engine. If search engine found any duplicate content they penalty it & your backlink will be mark as spam. If this happend chance to be decreased your page rank.
So what is the best way for getting backlinks from article submission. the links should be placed in article body or resource box.
it doesnt affect you site at all.. all this does is add some of the content to the 'other relevant results' area.. Some of the links will be devalued but it wont harm your site..
Are you serious? ha ha ha ha! What a Great example of what the OP is asking... Copying and pasting what other people say doesn't get you anywhere... That's duplicate content right there... And you have no clue what you're talking about... THERE IS NO PENALTY!!!!!!! Its a Filter.... Not a Penalty.... The search engines just filter it out.. You still get credit for the content (just not as the ORIGINAL content provider) and for the backlinks, not as much as you would if your content was unique and original. And, its only "Duplicate Content" when your website has 2 pages that are exactly the same... From content, to title, to images, to everything else in it... Could having the same content on your site as another site hinder the effects on your site's ranking, yes of course.., but how much?
It won't decrease your pagerank or hit you with duplicate content filter. Matt Cutts suggests that when you syndicate content accross the web, always include a link back to the original article so it can help google figure out the original copy of the article.
I don't see how article repetition could negatively affect your page ranking. Think of the news agencies that release articles on license to thousands of media outlets across the world.
If you submit your articles without spinning(re-writing) them, you will not improve your website ranking. But you will not damage either, because Google just won't count the backlink and that's it.
That is the point you get article submitted to 900 directories but its not that good if its the same article with the same content.
