    Im not an expert at article writing but i dont see why not.

    They have software that will mass post your article to 100's of ezines.

    I might be wrong but im sure someone will come along and answer this in more depth.

    Yes, but make sure you post to ezinearticles first, and wait until it has been approved! They will reject it if not, and that is arguably the strongest article directory!

      You can post to EZA anytime as long as you are the original author of the one already posted. If you use pen names they may reject it. Otherwise your safe.

        Awesome, didn't know that! I have always just posted there first and waited until published and then posted everywhere else!

        Thanks for the info!

          I have asked this question few weeks ago..I was referred to this thread titled
          Article on site or EZA first ?

          I believe it will answer your question.

            I submit 1 article to multiple directories at once, and sometimes I will add them to a free blog, squidoo lens, hub page, etc all at the same time.

    I also generally submit to EZA first, then to a few other directories. Not a hundred, but a few.

    I am also interested to see if there are advantages to submitting an article uniquely to EZA or not.

    Yes you may and it is recommended to do so. Like the statement above...submit it to e-zine first and wait for it to be approved..BUT NOT ONLY THAT!!
    MAKE DAMN SURE IT HAS GOTTEN INDEXED BY GOOGLE FIRST!
    I do that by going to the article page itself and copy the url of the page its on at e-zine articles and the pasting it into googles browser to see if it has been indexed.There is some software and utilities that can do this for you. And the google toolbar.
    Then yes...submit it to other directories. I use software for that process myself.
    And it will get you tons of backlinks.
    Hope this helps!

    Yes, however I would try to spin the article for each directory.

    If you have a good spinning software it makes sense to use it, but overall I wouldn't stress about having your content submitted to multiple places.

    Look into using Isnare and Free Traffic System as well.

    What about directories likeHubpages andsquidoo lens. Do they have to be unique content or can it be just what you have submitted to the otherdirectories?

      It is OK, but as stated above. Try to rewrite or spin the
      article many times. Then submit. You have a decent
      chance of get several articles listed.

    Yes, you can submit one article to a gazillion article directories.

    No, that is not a guarantee that you will get more traffic.

    However, make sure that you read the most current Terms of Service (TOS) of article directories before you submit because I discovered that webmasters keep tweaking their TOS from time to time.

    Change is the only thing that is permanent.

    You mean mass article submission. I also have tried it before
    but, didn't give me good amount of traffic.

    Yes, it'll give you more backlinks but real benefits will bring you only by High PR directories.

    Nothing bad in doing that, however i recommend you tweak a bit. At least rewrite the tittle by minimum of 50-60 times. For example, " How to lose weight in Seven days" could have another tittle like " Seven Days weight loss . This gives variation in the articles
