Do Article Submitters Work???

I think the time when it was a good idea to blast your article out to hundreds of directories are LONG gone. Most of these links are very low value and they can actually hurt your site more than they help.

So my answer would be NO. I would NOT recommend using an article mass submitter at this point.

Instead, focus on developing a quality blog, and maybe submit some press releases, and perhaps a few articles to the very best article directories (especially high level niche directories). Check their TOS though.

Also, diversify - turn them into other formats, i.e., PDFs, PP, videos, etc. and submit to appropriate places. And get the word out in social media about your videos and other stuff.

Since the last big Google update the links value you get from articles on article directories has dropped to almost nil BUT there is still a point to producing articles. Here's some of the benefits that don't rely on SEO juice.

1. If you produce quality original articles you can get them published by ezines or blogs that take articles from other writers. You DON'T do this through article directories. You do it be approaching the blog or ezine publishers. This can create significant spikes in traffic to your offer or site.

2. A series of good articles is great for producing other produces like ebooks, free courses, podcasts, etc. All these can start out as a few articles.

3. Swapping articles with other site owners is a great way to create good quality incoming links. The way to do this is to publish one for one. You publish one of theirs and they publish one of yours. Don't link to the swapped article on the other site though . Always link to a squeeze page or to a landing page of some sort.

4. Articles make great bait for squeeze pages, subscriber bait for blogs, and bait for Facebook postings or twitter postings. These can easily be on you ezine articles channel.

5. On that subject, submitting to ezine articles is no longer about links for SEO, but you can still gain significant kudos from having a good article portfolio on ezine articles. When you have a "Platinum Expert Author" badge you gain a certain amount of "expert" status. You can't just buy this award - you need to earn it, so it says something about your expertise.

Articles are still the basis of content marketing. Almost every other content online can start life as an article.

I realise this is not directly answering your question about article submitters, but I felt it was quite an important point to make. Article submitters may have fallen on hard times but I think articles are still a very viable way to promote online. You just have to use them in a different way.

Submitters? Spinners? C'mmon man the pandas, penguins and hummingbirds don't like such stuff. From the SEO perspective they ARE mostly a waste of time.
