I've just read that Ezine Articles does not accept articles with a keyword density of more then 1%. The problem is the majority of my articles have a keyword density of approximately 3% I did not write any of my articles with keyword density in mind so now I'm really cheesed of. I just made it relevant to the topic I chose to write about. I can't believe how badly writers are treated. By writing articles for them we are putting in a lot of effort and making them money and they impose such ridiculous stringent rules. It makes me want to take my service elsewhere... Have been able to get away with posting articles with a higher percentage keyword density on Ezine?..... thanks.
It is a real pain. They don't let you put your keywords within 100 charecters of each other, so it becomes really difficult to spread out the keyword usage to meet their regulations. I'm usually able to get just below a 2% keyword density though which is fine with the Ezine editors. It's just a pain to have to always keep them spread out that way for acceptance.
ezine has very high standard and can be a bit challenging to work with sometimes. your kw density needs to be less than 2% (even 1.9% works fine). about kw repeating one every 100 words, that rule is not enforced very strictly. if u have an article with 3% kw density, then its not very hard to do a little tweaking to change it to less than 2%. just login to ezine and try to submit your article. with the new interface, it will give you a flag telling you that you have kw density of 3% so as you make changes within article body, it will recalculate the kw density which makes easier to know how much you will need to edit. if you have a kw of "web hosting" for example, you can change one or 2 kw to "webhosting" which will satisfy ezine. another example can be changing from diet plan to diet program. your content remains the same but kw density gets recalculated
Yeah. You are right and i can understand your feeling. Becoz one my article also denied by ezine , only becoz of excessive keywords. But i dint feel much about that. i just moved forward to other article submission sites like goarticles, articlebase and so on. So i suggest you to move on some other best article submission site. Meanwhile ezine not allow product promotion articles too. Pretty bad !!
Some month before i was getting a problem. Ezine was not approving my articles but when i analysis i got high % of keyword density in articles and then i just focus on my writer article writing with 1% keyword density now i always get approve i all articles in ezinearticles . So in short words I will say 1% density is best to get approval in ezine.
rv12may, thank you for the advise. Now I understand why my article is in premoderation for a 1,5 week and isn't yet approved. Will try to stay at 1% density.
I have submitted several articles to ezineariticles and I found actually their review is not too strict. Anyway other dirctories like articlecube, ariticlecat, articlealley ect. are also fine.
OK, thanks for that. I think I could manage just under 2% but I don't know how I will manage 1%... some words are just not interchangeable and would look very odd in my articles. I also want to rank high for my keywords so that rule is a bit of a bummer but I'll just have to find a way around it I guess.....
Take it or leave it, ezine set this to avoid keyword spamming. Yes, i agree it might be difficult but no choice.
Ezine has been high authority in articles.. Some variations is a good solution.. 2.5% density they accept it
Hi, if your article has 400 words, so you can keep your keyword density approx 1% to 3%, this ratio gives best result in article submission.
