Forget articles to aid promotion, its too work heavy for starters and a waste of time when the searcher can visit a directory or other engine and find 1000's of businesses in seconds. Searchers know this, so will bypass articles every time, infact they wont bother going to where articles are spammed on a daily basis. Cant believe people still do the article thing, then again it is the very poor mans option of exposure - very limited exposure...
Web_Shark This is a very weird post you have written I have been told by many people That the best way to Gain favor from Google Is to write articles. So what you say does not make sense. Just my 2 bits. Best wishes and regards. Ved
An interesting post writing style I think the articles @Web_Shark is referring to are the ones you post on other people's sites to drive traffic / links back to your site. Just because many people tell you something it doesn't mean it's true. Make sure you do your own testing and research.
I was just trying to save the guy years of wasted effort, but you know you're right - let him/them find out for themselves. So to do this they will need: 1. A kick ass site with at least 6000 pages of fresh, niche, original content that noone else has ever written (you got to attract and keep niche visitors) 2. Ensure you have at least 500 unique articles before the site goes live (I mean you don't want new traffic to see an empty site do you) 3. You need to think about how to market this, after all there's 50'000 blogs out there - all doing exactly the same as you - So, what differentiates you from them, and why should they use you for articles above Goarticles etc ??? How will you/they steal Goarticle's audience? Tell you what, if anyone can do the above perfectly - then you'll certainly drive 1 million plus visitors a month - honest! Actually, you won't as I did this many years ago with an article search database site - but if such people want to waste their time, let them, after all its not my money or time their wasting lol.
