Article Marketing

Thanks, I have herd loads of different ways of doing it but the way I'm doing it seems to work as long as soon as the article has been accepted I add it to my website. But I see what your meaning and that’s how I did it before until someone else told me to do it the way I do now.
Now I'm just very confused. I would like to see what the majority think before I go back to the way you have described.

So you speak for every article directory in the world? Or did you not notice how I said "if"?



Maybe spinning does not work with how you do article marketing. I speak for how I do article marketing, which works. I don't care if you keep talking until you are blue in the face (or keep stalking my posts down to find little technicalities to attack me on). You can keep doing that and I'll keep making money.



People in your circle of friends agree fully on "best practices". People in my circle of friends agree fully on "best practices", and those "best practices" are different. So by saying there is no disagreement because "you and the people you associate with" don't disagree is like a Democrat who never talks to Republicans saying there is no disagreement.

Bottom line is, if you have an article that is unique, human readable quality, and you don't want to put it on your money site (spun content can easily fit this description and there are a lot of legitimate reasons to not put a human quality unique article on your money site) then using them for article marketing is a valid and very effective strategy.


Now I'll wait for the barrage of ad hominem attacks from you to continue

Actually article marketing is nothing new. The full leveraging power of this method was known shortly after the invention of the steam-operated printing press by German printer Friedrich Koenig in the 1800's. However, somehow this technique was lost in recent years when article marketing "trainers" relegated articles only for backlinks. These are the modern-day alchemy marketers; thinking they could turn google garbage into gold. :rolleyes:

Sorry, but this is just wrong. It isn't true. It's a mistaken belief about a simple, verifiable, factual matter.

They don't care whether or not it's "copied" as long as it's submitted by its own author/owner! You're confusing two different things, here.

Article directories do not require previously unpublished content.

You really shouldn't do that, Krobinson. That's very misguided indeed. As explained above, and as explained in greater detail by many successful article marketers making our livings this way, in the threads linked to above, and in 100+ other article marketing threads in this forum, you're making a big and unnecessary mistake there, by unnecessarily giving article directories the initial indexation rights to previously unpublished content. And all because of your erroneous belief that article directories won't publish articles that you've already published on your own sites and/or elsewhere. They will and they do. Take it from a few dozen of us here, who make our livings this way, who between us have done this tens of thousands of times.

You may just find that we've worked it out correctly.

I give in.

Never mind the fact that all the people making a living from this say the exact opposite, from years of successful experience: I'll just look on the bright side and hope that all my competitors agree with you.

I've heard all the 'duplicate content' nonsense, but this is the first time I've heard that retaining first-publication status will increase a site's bounce rate.

The only scenario I can come up with for this is if someone finds an article on a directory, then follows the links back to the same article on the website. That will, justifiably, create more bounces but I fail to see how publishing on your own site first contributes to that.

Linking an article on an outside site, any outside site, back to the same exact article on your own site is a flawed strategy regardless of where the article appeared first.

Had to wait for Cardine to reply first, so I could point out (again) that he managed to drag some totally misguided nonsense about "spinning" into the conversation just because he's promoting it in his sig-file.

I guess this is how you watch the fur fly? Sorry...
