For the sake of linkbuilding, I am willing to write many articles and send them to ezinearticles and few other article directories. But then, I would like to make sure the exercise is gonna be worthwhile coz I heard that the links, if coming from the same website, will only have less value. Is this true? What should I do for effective and more valuable links? Send the articles to ezinearticles and 5 to 10 other major article directories, or send them to 100 small ones?
Articles are a great way of getting both backlinks and unique visitors who are interested in your article and your link. Ezinearticles is the foremost article directory and well worth the time submitting to them. You will get the backlinks but even more importantly you will get clicks from readers who find your article interesting and want to see what your site is all about. Remember, don't submit the exact identical article to more than one site because duplicate content is a no-no.
I agree... if you have submitted to very popular article directory, the chance that your article being read is very big.(although they have so many articles) If the reader admire your works, he/she will click on the writer blog. Your blog will have visitors = traffic. beside that if the article directory permit you give link to some words on your article, you will gain backlink by submitting that articles. good luck
Yes, you earn backlinks from ezinearticles, but the argument of many is that as you submit many articles, the backlinks from ezine will become worthless since the links come from the same website (ezine)..how true is this?
Links from EzineArticles are great, but don't forget that you have to get links from 'different websites' to get a better ranking. I will still submit all articles to Ezine because there is a good chance they get 'used' by other other webmasters.
Yeah! It really makes it worth only if your articles get approved in fact Ezine Articles have certain strict limits in content writing style, attribute and perfect grammar skills will be determined in process of approval! However after articles approval can allow you to obtain good number of backlinks
