In the video it shows creating a link from the text in the article, so the article would probably have to be related to your website. Has anyone tried submitting an article with an "unrelated" type of "resource box" like at the article directories? If so, what kind of acceptance rate are you seeing? Thanks
I would also like to get some more information about this site. Is it the same network as MAN... Any review on it? How do you like it?
I'm only familiar with the paid side and I'm not familiar with MAN. Posting an article is easy like a WP blog, you can just hyperlink the term, but the article needs to be related to the link. The individual blog owners can accept or decline your article, but if it's well written acceptance seems to be around 80-90%. It supports the spin syntax and the blog owners seem to accept those more readily. Seems to be a good system, but depending on the niche there might not be a lot of blogs at this time. Only time will tell if the links start to show as you have a report as to how much sites have accepted the article, but not the URL's of the site, so you can't backlink them.
I am free member of this site but I have not yet submitted articles and my blogs are still on process...will definitely accepting articles from this site later.
I haven't tried it with completely unrelated links, but I've submitted a few artilces with author-box style signatures containing links that were only loosely related. Accept rate >90%. I imagine that with completely unrelated links, you wouldn't get many accepted, though.
So the acceptance rate remains about the same then. That's okay if there's a large network of blogs in those niches, but my problem is that the niches I'm targeting don't seem to have many blogs. Searches yes, but blogs no. For instance, I submitted an article on gas grills a few days ago under cooking and home improvement, but so far no one has picked it up or declined it (yes it's live). My thought was to submit an article in a more popular niche, but maybe I'll try a somewhat related (but less popular) niche first. Thanks
