    Do you have any option, how could our previously submitted articles could help out. Because I am working on a website for whom we had submitted over 50 Articles now planning to use them as a great resource and to share them on web to generate more traffic. As they are not giving any.
    Friends do you have any suggestions or comments on these.

    Thanks

    If they are already indexed on google then I wouldn't use them. Just create new articles and let those go.

    Agreed, you are better off starting with some fresh content since the old ones well, are old. Don't be lazy, if you wrote a good article before then there no reason why you can't do it again.

    Easy. Rewrite them using the keywords you want to target.

    But in SEO does there is no value of old content, offcourse they are the good resource and deliver better traffic. People love to read new and fresh content.
    Thanks for helping me out.
    As before this I am planning to create a PDF, Page on my website to share great informative articles, which I have posted on some niche sites.
    But as per discussion in this thread it will not benefit us.

    I think that it can work if you simply change the anchor and reupdate. But its essential to make some changes with your article write some new ideas. (is better to try then let it be...) But as aaron_nimocks said is better to write some new articles. :)
