    no man its not ok to copy the whole article, however you could use that article as reference and use its link in your article, just copying it will no longer serve the actual purpose as it won't be helpful, particularly if that copied article is used for SEO work.
    If you have a problem writing by yourself, then just search online for so many copywriters available and waiting to write for you on any subject as per their pay rate

      Actually, the whole point of ezinearticles.com is that you can copy their articles, as long as you give credit... When you copy the article, they automatically append the credit...

      It's called syndication if you do it that way. It's normal. The only problem is the quality of the articles, usually, is not that good... But if you do find good ones and you want to syndicate them...

      Once you find good ones, contact whoever wrote them, and ask them to write you some... They might do it for free, for a couple of backlinks or for money... You only know if you ask.

    If you put credits on the articles you use, or asked permission it's okay. But man....nothing beats a great original article that came from you. That would be your identity. You don't want to be ezine's shadow right? Good luck!

    Yes, it is! That's the point of article directories - and they include instructions for how to use the articles on your own site. It's not same a taking articles from someone else's site without permission.

    It's not "if you put credits" - you are REQUIRED to list the author credits as shown on the article directory if you want to use the article.

    I agree an original article best - but directory articles - properly sourced - can help fill in a new site when combined with original material.

      I think you should read the posts in a thread before you answer, even when your answer is correct.

      You definitely need to do it when the answer you have is wrong, like it is in this case.

      As said above 2 times, it is ok to copy articles from ezinearticles.com and such sites. They want you to, as long as you don't claim the article is yours.

      Here's the first paragraph from ezinearticles.com's homepage:
      EzineArticles.com brings real-world experts and ezine publishers together.
      Our searchable database of hundreds of thousands of quality original articles, posted by Expert Authors & Writers, allows email newsletter publishers who are hungry for fresh content to find articles to include in their next newsletter (up to 25 articles per year per our Publisher TOS).



      And here's what they have to say about copyrights:
      Where Can I Put my Copyright Information?

      If you choose to include your copyright information, place it at the bottom of the body of your article, not the top. If you put it on the top, we will move it to the bottom.
      It is important to keep in mind our Terms of Service when adding your own copyright. All of the articles on our website are available for republishing on other websites. Your article may be picked up by a publisher and syndicated and your copyright may deter this. (EzineArticles.com - FAQ: Article Writing Components).


      Did you happen to catch this: all of the articles on our website are available for republishing on other websites?
