Have you writen an article lately?

If not, you should.

I started my dog resource site on jan 3rd. My self, and members of my site have writen articles on various dog related subjects. Today i did a search in google under some key words related to the articles, and almost all came up with P1 ranking.....

I did a search for "Chicken compared to chicken meal" for example, and I saw that my article was in number 2 spot. Granted it was from an article site, by my URL was at the very top of the article.

Gives me some motivation to write more.


Just thought i would share that with you.

 

Which publisher did you use and was it free or did you pay for a faster inclusion?

 

i used a whole bunch of free ones I found a great list here

Thanks web-rover for the URL... Safe the the trouble of googling for it...

 

no prob anytime

 

That's quite the list. Thanks for sharing.

 

Do you submit the same article to like 10 places?

I write dog articles as well so far only submited to ezinearticles.

 

yeah i submit them to several different places.

 

Submitting articles to more sites would bring you more readers and potentially other sites publishing your article and in return a backlink... This is similar to submitting your site to directories...
One thing that you have to watch out for is that some publishers who re-printed your article do not provide an active hyperlink... if this happens, write to them to make it active and clickable...

 

nice list. Thanks for the URL friend.

 

yeah i found this out today. Instead of doing a search for my article, I did a search under my full name. I found one site who didn't provide my url in the body of the article.

 

Yoou can submit here aswell: http://www.seo-today.com/seo-articles.html

 

heh nice... i will have to check it out as i guess this is the way to go.. havent tried it yet..

 

After the recent PR update with google, I found a bunch of my articles on sites with P7. So when the next update rolls along, i am hoping that that P7 might trickle down to me since my URL is always included with the article

 

Here's another list with 100 article submission sites on it.

I personally will be submitting articles to everyone of them as time permits. It's amazing to see how many other sites then pick them up too, the couple of articles I have submitted so far are appearing more on sites that I haven't heard of than on the ones I have.

I found that some of these sites have made the url inactive, but if the article is well written and informative then viewers are generally savvy enough to copy and paste your url into their browser anyway.

 

i would say 1/3 of my backlinks are now from articles.

 

This is interesting - thanks to all who posted links.
I never thought of actually posting out articles to other sites - could you get hit by somekind of duplicate content filter though ?

 

Not likely as you are the original author - your not actually duplicating anything yourself, the sites that you submit to will be. Just make sure you upload the article to your website before submitting it anywhere.

 

thanks for the info padawan

 

Here you can see that one of the articles got a P7
