Ezine articles premium service worth it?

[Vanquish]

Hey guys I've been article marketing for a few months now with some decent success however I have heard about plenty of users having a larger success by using the premium service.

From what I understand the best time to have your article published is after 5pm when people come home from work and browse the web in the largest quantity.

Will signing up to the premium service and releasing my articles at 5-6pm have a drastic effect on increasing my sales? I currently write 5-8 articles daily. considering my volume is this service worth the price and will it increase my sales a lot?

I use the service to schedule articles throughout the day so that I usually have something on the first page of recent articles. I up the frequency from 4PM to 8PM. There is nothing worse than submitting 10 articles and having them all show up at once - all bunched together. For me, it pays for itself.

Are you writing your articles for one time-zone only, then? (Sorry, I don't intend this question to sound quite as facetious as it does, just trying to make the point that when it's 5-6pm in one place, it's all sorts of different time-zones in other places anyway, you know? There's a big market out there and it stretches across many time-zones! )

It's about the quality of your article, not the time people read it. Just provide value to your readers and you'll reap the benefits. Premium is good as they approve quicker the articles.

I'm in the Eastern Standard Time Zone also, so I can get most of North America in the early evening which seems to work well. There is a definite increase in activity from 4-8pm EST.

If you are writing 5-8 articles a day, you have plenty of opportunity to hit all the time zones - and keep an article on Page 1 without the Premium Service.

5-8 articles works out to about one article an hour that you can submit to Ezine Articles.

If you continue at that pace - write an article, submit to EA : write an article, submit to EA : ...repeat..., the editors will be working on them at different times throughout the day/week.

You can have a constant flow of articles in the queue being editing and published naturally. In time, it will just work out that your articles are always being posted to page 1.

This will save you that cost and still get you results.

You aren't submitting all your articles at once, are you? If so, split them up into one every 1-2 hours.

Every hour, there is a new batch of articles released and appearing on the latest articles page at 10 minutes after the hour. By having a premium membership, yours will appear near the top of the page instead of halfway down because they are released at the top of the hour - only 10 minutes before being posted. Without the ability to schedule, your article could be approved at any time in that hour. This can make a big difference in your views. My experience, anyway.

Ummm... Massive testimonial to EZA premium account from me!

We submit a stupid number of articles through our account, and they ALL get approved the SAME day, we can drip feed them in like people have said (so set up a month's article marketing campaign in an hour or so), unlimited pen names... and there's a stack of features I haven't even gotten to yet.

If you submit alot of articles (say 5 or more a day) I think it'll definitely pay for itself over the year.
