same article - no rewriting - for everything?

by zcx
25 replies
I just read a post on another forum where the writer said he uses the same articles for everything with no rewriting - when he writes an article first he puts it on his blog, then submits it to EZA, then after it's published on EZA he submits the exact same article to a lot of other article directories. According to him, it works fine and his blogs rank well, etc. etc. Just wondering, has anyone else tried that method? If so, what results did you get?

      Alexa, thanks for the reply! I think I'll try it myself - it would be a tremendous time saver.

      I agree 100%.

      There are No duplicate content penalties, even Google says this.
      When EZA checks your articles they are checking to see that you are indeed the writer, not how many places you have published it.

      Me to. I've never had problems with this supposed effect and Google have even said MANY times it doesn't exist. It's a marketing scam, ignore it.

      tommen, so you rewrite it before submitting to EZA - do you use that version for other article directories, or do you rewrite it yet again?

    By all means try it. I'm currently testing all kinds of things. My previous results though show that if you submit the same article to 20 directories, eventually 18 or 19 of those article submissions will end up in the supplemental results, therefore no additional organic traffic and no additional backlinks.

    At the end of the day, do what works for you AND always test things out for yourself. Never take anything as gospel.

    Good tip, soyou can still submit articles to ezinearticles that aren't original? Even if they were published elsewhere? If that's true ive got somework to do.. I was under the impression that they only accepted an article that wasn't submitted to any other article directory.

      What Alexa mentioned is true but the article published elsewhere has to have the same name you use to publish to EZA, else they won't approve you.

    Hmmm, so if we submit the EXACT same article
    all over the place, ALL of them will get ranked and
    bring us traffic... hmmm, that's educational. Then
    I don't see why I should write several articles.
    Why not just use ONLY ONE article all my life, :rolleyes:

    Alexa is giving you good advice here.

    I do the same thing. I submit to my blog, THEN to EZA, and then to a bunch of other directories.

    I make only one small change from what goes on my blog to what goes on the directories, and that is the last paragraph (or the resource box).

    On my blog, I link to whatever I want to. It could be an affiliate offer directly. This is not allowed in EZA, so I change the EZA resource box to point to my website, whatever page I'm building juice for.

    Then, when I submit to the other article directories I'll link either to my EZA article (to get it ranked) or to my blog article (to get it ranked also). Goal is to have my article + my blog story showing up in the top 10. Not always easy, but that's the goal.

    Ya, I too do the same way. It never had done any harm to my SERP.
    However, I do not submit the same article not more than 10 direcotires.
    I used to submit the same article to all 10 sites (EZA, goarticle and etc), where I am having same AUTHOR BIO setup, so EZA too will not question me
    I am getting success with all these.

    I've been in the internet business for over 3 years and I never had a problem with duplicate content with Google. I can't imagine rewriting the same article 10-20 times for each directory I submit my articles to. I don't have the time for that.

    I always submit my articles to at least 10-15 top directories for more exposure and back-links, and the only things I make small changes to is the title and resource box.

    I even found a lot of my articles on the first page of Google, and stayed there for a long time.

    I'm a little new to EZA and since they are the top rated site-they are the only one I use. Google loves them and when I write keyword rich titles for the articles, I have been getting first page search results! Also regarding the submission of the same article to multiple sites: what fun is that?

      It's not about fun, it's about money. Time is money and if you're wasting time re-writing the same article over and over rather than just submitting it and moving on to the next article that means you're wasting money.

    If the article is yours and published to your site first why would the article sites be upset that you are sharing with them?

    I fully agree with you Alexa, in fact I added an article directory to my site today to put my articles there instead of having to wait for that stupid EZA. I am so sick of them! Anyways, I will continue to post to EZA and other directories, but why make them an authority site when I can make mine one?
