Is EZA going INSANE?

Mountainmotorman · 10-12-2009, 07:33 PM

I read a lot on here but do not usually post. But, it has come to my attention with my little group that EZA is now kicking people off, closing accts. and ripping down articles.

I am asking if anyone else on this forum is finding the same thing and if anyone has REAL knowledge WHY and not just mear speculation...

Love to hear any thoughts of how to get around this issue because it is costing me and LOTS of others a good deal of business, hops, email addresses, hell---it is costing a great deal of $$$$$$$$$

Since EZA is a company and not a human being, it is not physically possible
for a company to go insane.

Companies can...

Go belly up
Go bankrupt
Go chapter 11
Hit the skids
Fall on hard times

But it can't go insane.

What they can do is remove customers who violate their Terms Of Service.

And there is nothing wrong with that.

The recent "changes" will only affect people that are submitting massive amount of articles daily that say pretty much exactly the same thing.

You will need to show a little creativity now

I would have voted Who Cares! but that sounded kind of mean.. Frankly I do not agree with thier business practices to begin with and I do not use them.

If you are losing a great deal of business then you broke the first rule of business "do not put all your eggs in one basket" ... There are many many more sites out there just as good and 50% of their traffic is real traffic and not your competition or other marketers.

This is one great reason why you build your own site up and not someone elses. You have no control over someone elses site but you do your own.

I agree with that. If you can be creative with your article writing, such as providing something of value then often the links will pass editorial. I seem to be having a very good run with EZA at the moment as all my articles are being accepted in quick time.

I see the move as a good thing as it will cull a lot of the rubbish clogging the top places in search engines.

Sure, why shouldn't they be able to kick people off?

Eric Lorence · 10-12-2009, 08:45 PM

Frankly, I'm surprised it took them this long ...

A recent post on their blog talked about penis enhancement articles flooding the database - but you'd think those types of articles would have been banned long ago.

Article marketing pretty much made that site what it is though, and I have to imagine most of their "traffic" now is just other marketers - not so much buyers.

Allen Graves · 10-12-2009, 08:49 PM

Good point Eric - a lot of their traffic probably IS other marketers...once you get to a point, I imagine the marketers and information gatherers overtake the consumers.

Thanks,

The traffic coming from within the site is definitely other marketers, but I still get quite a few visits from "civilians" from articles that are listed in the search engines.
