Hey everyone, are you supposed to submit your articles to your own blog or article website first?

Hey everyone,

Are you supposed to submit your articles to your own blog or article website first?

Also, which gets the best traffic a free wordpress blog, or a blogger blog?

Lastly, could I submit the same article I had just submitted to a blog, to an article website? Or would I need to change it, how much would I need to change it?

EDIT: Thank you for your responses, but I am still confused on one thing:

After you put up the article on your blog/website, do you submit the SAME article on Ezine? Or do you HAVE to change the article, if so, do the changes have to be huge or just a few words here and there?

Thank you!

You'll find the answers to your first and third questions here: Article on site or EZA first ?.
As for the traffic, much of that would be dependent on how you drive traffic to the site, how well optimized it is, etc.

I think it's best to sumit to Ezine first since Ezine like to have original piece and you can post it later on your blog once EA accepts it.

However, if you can rewrite your articles and post it on 2 different places, that is better.

The general consensus is that you don't submit to EZA first: Article on site or EZA first ?

First on your own blog and after that on article directories.

It's considered a good practice if you submit your articles first to the article directories especially EZA.

Generally there are two reasons:
1.If EZA finds an article published already on any site/blog they considered it to be attributed and don't approve it.

2.EZA takes around 10 days(this is what they say) to review and approve a article.

So in order not to upset any article directories and spoil all of my hard work , I prefer to stick with this plan :

1. First and foremost I submit articles to EZA(not all at once, I spread it over days)
then I submit the same articles to Articlebase,Goarticles etc..

2.As and when EZA approves the articles I post those articles on my blogs and social bookmark it.

That's it ! I know this is time consuming but if you are articles are of top quality, then you will see huge traffic rolling in once everything is setup.

And oh about the traffic getting blog WP or eblogger ?
I read somewhere, "Google owns eblogger so you stand a good chance that they will index there sites faster than other ones."

But that doesn't imply WP blogs don't get indexed faster ! All the search engines love blogs and are indexed faster than any other platform.

Hope this helps.

I think its much better to post it on your website first. It might look like you just copied the article if you post it on an article website before posting it on your site.

I usually post it to EZA first, and once its approved, I will submit it to the various other article directories and blog.

Hey everyone,

Thank you for your responses, also I am still confused on one thing:

After you put up the article on your blog/website, do you submit the SAME article on Ezine? Or do you HAVE to change the article, if so, do the changes have to be huge or just a few words here and there?

Thanks!!

[geoffcruz]

submit it to your own website, so Google will credit your website not the article site

[bugmenot15]

Hey,

Thanks geoffcruz for that, I will put it into practise.

One last thing: After you put up the article on your blog/website, do you submit the SAME article on Ezine? Or do you HAVE to change the article, if so, do the changes have to be huge or just a few words here and there?

Hey,

Thanks TheRichJerksNet for that, I have actually read pretty much all of it already.

But I still can't clarify ONE thing: After you put up the article on your blog/website, do you submit the SAME article on Ezine? Or do you HAVE to change the article, if so, do the changes have to be huge or just a few words here and there?
