People say submitting articles is a good idea and that ezenearticles is best. However ezenearticles is a pain in the butt being fussy and slow. People say that duplicate content doesn't hurt much except for being accepted in the first place. Indeed, they will submit an article to ezines and later submit exactly the same article to 100 other article sites (who presumably don't check for duplicate content). Either way the same article, word for word, might end up on a lot of websites. So who says the first article has to be "unique" since there will soon be hundreds of copies of it? Say you are a member of one of the numerous PLR sites and get several hundred niche articles a month. Chances are you will never even use most of those articles, nor will most of the other people who receive them. Are you going to sit down and rewrite 300 articles? 1000? No way. And neither is anyone else. So why not slam them ALL up to article sites which don't care about "unique" even if you have to start your own article site? But what if someone else did the same thing? So what if they did? So now there 200 copies of the article floating around. Your 100 and someone else's 100. Is that going to matter? I am asking if it might be more effective to do an "article slam" with every article you can get your hands on rather than knocking yourself out trying to rewrite a few of them.
