Hi.

I understand its best to get article indexed on own website before submitting to Ezine. I was wondering how Ezine Articles feel if the link is pointing back to my site with exactly the same article with the affliate link thrown in. Are they ok with it orr is is better the link goes to another article?

Thanks.

Jim.

    Don't point the link to the same article - point it to another page on your site with related content.

    don't put the same article on your site at all, it needs to be atleast 30% different, 70% is better.

    i usually put the article on ezine, the one my site i do like a top 10 list, which is just a summary of the article.

      Putting an article on your site and then submitting it to a directory like EzineArticles is perfectly fine and is acceptable.

      EA does not compare your article that you submit to an article anywhere else outside of EA for uniqueness. They only want to know that you are the creator of the article and that it is an original article and not PLR or an article that you grabbed from somebody else.

      The people that "spin" or rewrite PLR articles need the article to appear original in order to submit to the directory and not have it rejected. They have figured out that the spun article needs to be different from the original article by a certain percentage.

      That is the context in which you read about using the 30% and 70% numbers you used above.

        duplicate content is an issue.. thats why I say 30%-70% different.

        i don't think article directories is going to get slapped for duplicate content so thats why your able to post the same article on a different article directory, vs your site.

    Seems to be mixed opinions on this one. I'm running a few different scenarios with articles that I've created for my own sites. Should be interesting.

    This is a response I gave to a similar question.

    Here is a short piece from a blog where Chris Knight addresses this question. Chris Knight is with ezinearticles.com.

    Kevin writes: Sorry for any confusion.
    I write an article say "Breast Feeding Or Bottle Feeding;" Put it on my own site, then submit that article to EzineArticles and it is accepted. That's fine: yes?
    Now sometime later I submit the same article to a number of other article directories, what would EzineArticles attitude be towards authors that go down that road? Will they pull the article from their database? Will EzineArticles penalize authors who submit the same article to other article banks or is this acceptable behaviour?

    I think you're over-thinking this.
    As long as it's original content that you have the exclusive rights to it (meaning, it's under your name alone)... we would not have any incentive to remove it in the future regardless as to where you further distribute the article.

    Here is the link to the blog post.

    what people usually do, is use link text to the keyword there trying to rank for, then they link that text to a similar article, or page on their site.

    there should be unique articles in the internet. you should use a plagiarism software. just look it up and you can also use an article spinner.

    I have a 'Resources' page on my site where I post articles. I have a 'Home' page on the same site where my EZA link points to.

    It doesn't much matter how EZA would feel about it, really: it would be such a bad thing to do anyway, just from the perspective of your own business. Who would want to link back to another copy of the same thing that the people clicking on the link have just read?!

    Predictably, one or two of the replies above appear to be from people who haven't quite understood how very important and valuable it is, in the long term, to have articles indexed on your own site first, before submitting them to EZA. But doing so doesn't mean that you should link back to the original copy!

    This fine and valuable thread really contains all the information one can need on this subject, and is a goldmine of well-reasoned, valuable stuff for anyone planning to make money through "article marketing"!

      Alexa,

      My question is, how long do you have to wait before you submit the article you posted on your site to EZA? That is, can you tweak and submit it immediately to EZA or do you have to wait for some time?

        King, you only wait long enough to get the article on your own site indexed. Once it shows in the index, go ahead and distribute it...

    If you post unique content at your site, that would be better. Don't use your website content to be published on ezine. Write different post for ezine. You can use ezine post(content) to submit on other article directories with back links to your website. This will be more help in improving your SERP.

    Threads asking how to do Article Marketing come up quite often here - so I have a standard reply - I hope this helps:

    Two brilliant threads to read about article marketing are these:

    http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...marketing.html

    http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...eza-first.html

    Read them both - all the way through - and take notes.

    For further information I recommend the following directory - It is education in article marketing - a guide book and monthly newsletters - with a directory thrown in! You can read what Warriors think about it here:

    http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...alks-walk.html

    http://www.promotemyarticles.com/

    also available as a WSO here:

    http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...g-service.html

    This is a really great WSO for people trying to write good preselling articles:

    http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...iors-only.html

    I can also recommend the WSO's from this guy:

    http://www.warriorforum.com/members/zeus66.html

    In particular this one - All people interested in article marketing should study this!

    http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...-you-need.html

    This guy also has some good stuff - some article marketing some on other things
