Anybody Else Noticing this About EZA?

7 replies
Hi all,

Up until last night i had been submitting my articles at a certain time to ensure publication to the top 3 spots of the 'Recently Published' list on EZA. I actually usually got at least 2 of those 3 spots! The traffic and sales were great in my chosen niches, but all that now seems to have all changed; and literally overnight!

Upto and including yesterday evening i had been following the very same routine of submission and have now discovered, well for nearly a week now, that my published articles not only don't appear anywhere in the top 3 of the above mentioned list, they don't appear on the list at all! How can this be when i'm following my submission plan? Needless to say my earning have dried up considerably!

Well, as you can imagine i contacted EZA regarding this and they responded by telling me that the appearance, or non appearance, on the 'Recently Published' list was a purely automated thing...in other words 'hit-and-miss'. How can this be though when i had religiously followed the system i mention in paragraph 1? There is nothing 'hit-and-miss' about that. It might be worthy of note that i am a premium member paying $99 per month for an 'improved' submission service.

I'm now none the wiser and really don't know what to do. I contacted EZA over 24 hours ago and am still waiting a reply. Any thoughts/advice on this situation would be happily received and greatly appreciated. I am no newb with EZA as i have over 16,000 views and 3,500 CT's on over 120 articles published, yet i'm now at a loss!

    I've read about this same technique from other sources. It's clear they changed something. I recommend testing again with submissions at different times. If it's automated, there must be a pattern.

      Yep, there is definitely a pattern that stays for a while, then it changes again. I've noticed a change over the last week or so.

      I have almost 500 articles published on EZA and it was only in the last month or so that I started experimenting with different submission times to try and figure out their publishing pattern. I agree, it can be very lucrative when you finally dial it in. It can literally mean the difference between 30 views or 300 views+ over a 24-hour period.

      I think EZA is aware of this and purposely changes the patterns. Just start submitting at different time intervals throughout the day and keep accurate records of when your articles are published. After a few days of doing this a new pattern will emerge...

        I was considering monitoring my submission times but I submitted 3 articles this morning, two of them were published in like an hour and the third one is still on it first yellow square on their little progress meter.

        It may take me awhile to find a pattern with results like that.

    EZA is getting more and more authors every single day...There is no perfect pattern to get your article at the right place. Just SEO your article and you would never have to worry about traffic.

    Although it is true about choosing the right title, etc., getting on the right page initially can really make a difference. The reason is that if your article gets lots of views right off the bat, it will make it to the most popular posts list and THAT makes a difference.
