Articles for direct leads?
Been wondering if using articles on ezine, articlebase etc. has any effect for direct leads (through link in resource box) or if they're submitted to create high pagerank backlinks fairly easy. I mean do visitors to these articles actually click through and do they also buy from salesletters or is it purely non-buyers. And is this somehow nichespecific?
Also should every article be submitted to only your private website OR 1 article directory in order to not be punished by google for duplicate content. Or can you publish it to many directories or even to directories AND your own website?
Interested cause I'd like to build content for my blog to rank higher, but would love to use the same content for directories for a more shortterm quicker boost.
Thanks a lot in advance
