Best Time To Submit Articles To EzineArticles

Syndication partners that have already published you already have the traffic you want. EZA is just where you can hopefully pick up another publisher every once in a while.

Initial indexation will prove that it cam from your site first. Put your name/pen name on your blog, is there really a good reason not to? You're supposed to be building yourself as an authority, not very easy to do that when no one knows who you are.


I keep the same title personally. What would be the benefit of changing it?

Probably won't help, it's something I wouldn't even think to test personally. Of course, I'm not worried about what Google thinks, so your idea never crossed my mind.

You won't have a problem. EZA does not require previously unpublished content.

Pen names, yes. Accounts, no. You're only supposed to have one EZA account.

Forgive me. The way you worded things made it seem that your name appeared nowhere on your site. That should be enough should EZA ever start asking questions.

I guess it couldn't hurt. I'm just saying that it isn't something I waste my time on, personally. If the content isn't good enough to be read and syndicated, a different title isn't going to save it.

Not a question I have an answer for. Dates are attached to my articles, and the hypothetical you are thinking of has never come up for me.

You don't have the rights to publish those articles for them, unless they were ghost writers and the work was initially published under your name. In that case it would still have to be under your own account. EZA frowns upon multiple accounts per user.

I would change that. Both for EZA's sake and your own. EZA has been known to reject articles under those circumstances. (They're not consistent about it). But in any case, you need a name on your articles for your own site's readers. It doesn't have to be your real name - just your niche pen-name.

That looks far better than anonymous articles, or articles by "admin".

No, as long as the names match. EZA will (understandably!) have a problem if you submit to them in one name/pen-name an article which has been published elsewhere under another name.

Yes; you can have as many different pen-names as you like at EZA, within one author account.

No; this breaches their terms of service. And if they catch you doing that, they will close both accounts.

You were misinformed.

It isn't duplicate content. It's syndicated content.

The difference is explained here (as well as on EZA's own blog!): Article Marketers - Lay the Duplicate Content Myth To Rest Once and For All - Internet Marketing and Publishing Blog

There are people who imagine that that's so, but they've got it all wrong. Some of them have had the "different names" problem and wrongly assumed that the reason EZA wouldn't accept it was that it was previously published.

That probably wouldn't give you a problem with EZA, it must be said. That's better than "anonymous", anyway.

Titles don't "convert", but I know what you mean ... titles are copyrighting, really, rather than "article-writing". You need them to be as striking/individual as possible, preferably while starting with the main keyword.

You don't need to.

Why? :confused:

I take your point. I must say, though, that for myself, I would want all articles with links to my blog to be in my author account, and wouldn't feel secure without that being so.

Since we are two different people. Posting under the same account would be violating their TOS. wouldn't it?

Besides, it is something we are doing 'just in case'. I mean, we might want to promote other sites or products where we are working independently.
