How long do they actually take to show up when running a scan on one of the 3rd party backlink checker tools. Do they show up as soon as the search bots go through the sites your article is located or can they take months. I know it can take months for other websites to pick your articles but what about all the articles directories that are supposed to submit your article straight away. Finally, and more importantly, how long before they (the backlinks) are likely to have significant effect on SERPS?
Just a week or two then they ramp up to a flood. You can see the effect in the promotional video link in a blog entry I did on publishing articles if you are interested. Links from articles published this way never have a significant effect on SERPS imo. - Michael
The only links that will be counted (in the end) are from the few higher ranking, authority sites anyway. So, if you have 1 article distributed across 40 article repository sites, you'll only really get a bump from one or two of them. MSN still will count them to some effect more than G, but I would recommend writing many articles and distributing them to only the few big ones, like GoArticles or Ezinearticles (although your article will get "grabbed" and distributed from doing this anyway). In other words, instead of casting a huge net with your articles, cast a much smller but focused net. In our experience, it works better. ================ Internet Marketing and Optimization.

So, you think Isnare's $2 per article distribution is not very valuable and would rather manually submit to 5 or 6 of the best ones? One thing I never get about Isnare is that they promise to distribute an article to at least 150 different article directories, but it seems to me that you only end up with a handful (about 10 back links) from each article (this is about 2/3 weeks after the the distribution has taken place).
