Where I Can Submit Article For Quality Links & Is Squidoo/Hupages A Quality Backlink

[onpointinfo]

I working on 2 goals:

1) article syndication
2) quality article backlink building

Since article directories are not worth using them for building backlinks and it can be done with syndicating articles to get quality backlinks but this is just one strategy.

I wish to implement another strategy and that is to build quality backlinks from other places I can submit articles too.

I understand that squidoo and hubpages is great place to get a quality backlink is this true or false and why ?

Also heard in order to rank for your keyword in squidoo / hubpages you must work hard at networking on there in their community in order to get people to like you and must add additional content there as well is this true or false and why ?

Sqidoo and hubpages are most definitely worth your time because they have a high pagerank. Just be very sure to read their TOS and follow them very strictly.

Try guest blogging on authority sites in your niche. Write up an excellent article the first time around and they'll practically beg you to come back...

Don't be afraid to approach blog owners either...coming up with fresh content on a daily basis is probably one of their biggest problems and that is where you can come in and help.

hi vickie...

Is it true to rank for your pages in squidoo or hubpages I need to work hard on networking in there in both of them just putting up good content is not good enough to rank for those pages placed there ?

What should be focus on those placing content on those web 2.0 sites , what are the questions that one should ask himself or herself when placing content there, it is not being syndicated so how do I max out the use of those sites.

Sorry, but this is no more true than saying "EZA has a high page rank".

EZA's own home page has a high page rank, but obviously enough that isn't where your articles are published: they go on their own, new PR-0 pages. Just like your own new pages at Squidoo or HubPages.

Websites don't "have page rank".

Pages have page rank.

And by the way, page ranks have very, very little to do with link-juice, these days. Anyone who looks can see this for themselves, from the regularity with which lower-PR pages (often with fewer backlinks) outrank higher-PR pages (often with more backlinks) on Google's SERP's. Numbers of backlinks alone, and page ranks, are not what SEO is about.

It's about quality and relevance.

I wish Google would just openly abolish page ranks altogether, instead of constantly devaluing them while still maintaining the pretence that they "mean something".

The second is achieved through the first, when your articles are syndicated to quality, relevant sites.

It's true that you can, to some extent, achieve it in the ways explained here and here. But in principle, don't look at "things you can do with your own articles" in SEO terms too much. This isn't what article marketing is mostly about.

Like many professional article marketers, I stopped using Squidoo and HubPages a couple of years ago, myself. Their rules keep changing all the time, and you can't really submit your articles there without re-writing them anyway. Compared with the SEO benefits of (for example) relevant blog-commenting, and relevant forum posting, it's just not worth talking about. For me.

Sorry, but seems that all EZA articles have the same PR (6) as EZA's home page. At least this is what different PR checkers say

Your PR checker is a piece of garbage then. The articles do not carry a PR 6.
