Hi I would like to clarify on Aritcle Marketing and Duplicate Content. Well i need to increase my backlinks to the website. Now what is basically considered as a duplicate content in article marketing???? Comments please thanks
Don't worry about duplicate content. Just try to get the original article on your site before getting it out to as many sources as possible so you site is credited as the original author. This is a good thing. Many people will say that you need to spin articles to make sure they are all unique, but there are 2 issues with that. First, it is not natural to have 1000 unique articles articles linking to your site while those articles are not appearing in other places. The other problem is spun articles end up being a bunch of random words that make no sense. Despite what many will say (mostly by the people pushing mass article services), Google can tell if an article is spun. They can see the poor grammar and give almost no value to those articles. Which would you rather have; A high quality article that has been accepted by quality blogs, article directories and shared or thousands of articles that have little impact in Google? There are many testimonials and "case studies" for mass article submission services that spin articles. But look closely at the ranking in the testimonials. Most of them rave about going no where in the rankings to page 3 or page 2. There is NO traffic on those pages and it takes very little to rank there. Those spun articles will have little impact in the top 5 for reasonable keywords. Spend your money wisely. Create quality articles and don't worry about it being on many sites. The "duplicate content" issue is mainly to stop spammers and content theives. If you create a good article and it is on many sites, that is WAY better than trying to spin articles for marketing.
Not natural to have unstolen content? Good idea to have duplicate articles? Not a problem if there are duplicates if it appears on your site first? I've copied an article from one blog of mine, put it on another, spammed the crap out of the plagiaraizing blog, and it beat the original one. No penalty. I beat the original. With its own content. Wat I have never heard of a search engine thinking "oh hey, this article is only found on one site, that sounds fishy".... The best idea is to spin articles yourself, which isn't really "spinning" as much as rewriting and essentially creating new articles. I will NEVER accept an article on my blog that is a copy paste, EVER. I will NEVER give someone an article to post on their blog that is a copy or unreadable spin.
Where did I say it is not natural to have unstolen content? I said it is not natural to have 1000 unique articles linking to your site. I was referring to mass article services that spin content. Do you know how long it takes and how much money it takes to produce and market 1000 REAL articles? Definitely more than 30 days. Go ahead and spam your site with thousands of spun articles. It is your money. I advise against it. Google is not as stupid as you think. They will put very little notice towards that stuff. I have seen entire businesses dominate search results for great keywords because of a few dozen great articles. Those articles were submitted to quality sites and those sites were more than glad to have such great articles. If an article is good and it spreads, what is bad about that? That is more exposure for your site. There is ZERO issues with having other quality sites posting your quality articles. More exposure to you, more shares to content with your link, more links from unique domains, etc. The first site that posts an article gets more weight. Just like a page with a good backlink gets more weight. I never said that is the only thing you need to do to rank it. Several other issues come to play. Just like having a .com domain. That is strong, but other sites can still out rank you. Rankings rely on several factors. Btw, your example how you posted showed that a duplicate article does get noticed and can rank very well.
