Hi I just wonder what will happen if I post the articles that exist on my site already to article directory like ezarticle. Will Google treat it as copy from ezarticle? or just count the external link. thanks
I think Google will not include the article the second time, and it is no use posting articles of the exact content.
yes, you can do that by include the link of the source. By the way, not suggested to do in this way, it is better if you can re-write them before submit to ezine
I agree with lifeplayer. Including the author bio and original resource of the article can help you in Website Promotion through Article Submission.
the thing is that google bot will flag this as "duplicate content" no matter what... so this activity will turn into negative SEO instead.
