EZA Resource Box Question

9 replies
I know that in the resource box EZA doesn't accept raw affiliate links and they don't accept subdomains, only top level domains. I don't think they accept Anchor Text in the resource box either.

However, will they accept anchor text that is written as a top level domain?

e.g.

    No they won't. Your destination URL is still a raw affiliate link.

    Unfortunately no. It doesn't make any differences to what the anchor text is, if your actual link is an affiliate link they won't accept it.

    And they will accept up to five words for anchor text.

      No doubt about it. The article will get rejected due to the resource box.

      EzineArticles has these rule in regards to links in the resource boxes and I shall put down those that I have come across/violated before:

      1. Like what everyone has said, EZA DO NOT accept affiliate links. products. If you still want to link, buy a domain name (something generic and yet related to your product eg. cure-acne.com) and redirect the domain to your affiliate link in the cpanel.

      2. Anchor text is fine. Therefore <a href="http://cure-acne.com">Cure your acne now</a> is ok. However, do bear in mind that EZA does not accept anchor text of more than 5 words.

      3. Anchor text must be related to the site that it is linking to. For example, you cannot link an anchor text "learn guitar" to a site selling guitar cords and lyrics.

      4. Subdomain redirect - This is a no no. Only top level domain redirect is allowed eg http://www.cue-acne Dot Com.

      5. Maximum of 2 links in your resource box (provided you do not have any links in your article body.)

    If you wish to link to a subdomain, or something other
    than a root domain name, just use tiny.url or bit.ly to
    mask the link. It works.

    What you need to do is to buy your OWN domain and then, redirect it like suggested above. You shouldn't have any problem.
