Should I Buy EZA Premium?!

by Branlan17
22 replies
So here's my dilemma: I've been submitting 3-5 articles in my niche every day to EZA but the problem is some days they get published at times that are super busy, and my articles are gone before they can get my site even a handful of visitors. On the other hand, if they're published at less-busy times, just 3 articles can get me 200ish viewers from EZA which will usually result in at least a sale or two.

EZA premium is 97 a month unless you start going for package deals; but this would allow me to post say, in the evening, when people are home from work and EZAs staff isn't approving any more "normal" articles anymore. What do you guys think?

    Well let me ask this then, provided my titles are engaging and my resource boxes fall in the 30-40% range, is 3-5 articles a day a large enough number to make this worth it?

    Oh and if you have this service; what have you found to be the best time to release articles?

    i wouldnt bother, ezine are the worst directory when it comes to guidelines. they reject so many articles when other articles on thier site have so many spelling mistakes and wrong information in them.

    ezine as a whole is a valuable directory and can drive targeted visitors but they are so frustrating. dont give them money they earn enough money from your advertisements that appear on your adds.

    back to the question i wouldnt buy it if you only write 3-5 articles a day, there is no need just get platinum status and your articles are reviewed quickly anyway.

      Best thing about it imo is the scheduling. You can load all your articles at once and have them distributed as you want.

      My personal experience though has been that your articles will be more scrutinized because you are getting reviewed by their top editors. I admit I'm not the best writer in the world but from my actual experience, articles and topics I was writing on my regular account were accepted far more than the articles on the premium.

    I have had the opposite experience, I find that having a premium account means all articles go through.

    The biggest advantage I have found is that once you have submitted your article and set a time for it to be released you can then use that article on your blog/site/other directories without EZA calling it duplicated content as its been reviewed by their automated software.

    You don't need to do 3-5 every day! just 15 every two month's to dominate the most read and published sections.

    The time spent doing your keyword research and backlinking to each article is far more valuable than knocking out hundreds of articles.

        Alexa

        The reason I see it as an 'advantage' is that I like to blast them all out to the other directories straight away, some like Buzzle (thinks that right, the wine is kicking in) also only like original content so if I pace it correct all of them are getting original content before they find out their not!

    If it is really important as far as timing is concerned then I would recommend it. Actually, there is a real upside to controlling the timing of the release of your articles.

    You should, in testing they are really starting to rank well in Google. If you do EZA and Buzzle virtually at the same time (as in fill in both forms in different browsers) then submit you can usually get away with it.

    I think judging by this discussion it's at least worth a try. I'm in a niche where tons of articles are submitted each day so it might help me get a lot more views if I can have them release in the evening or w.e

      Im hearing that the best time to release articles is:

      • in the morning when people get to work
      • at lunch
      • in the evening when they get home from work
      your mmv.

    seems like drip-feeding them once per hour (if you're on the east coast) would cover all four time zones at 9 am -5pm. 9-12, 12-3, 5-9pm

      Hey Brandon,

      There are a couple guys doing timed submissions on EZA and the start their submissions at 6am-8-10-12 ad say that readership drops dramatically after noon....if you have hi CPC adsense sites or hi rev affiliate products and can afford it I would give it a shot....
