Is Article marketing still working for quality BackLinks ????

Article marketing has almost nothing to do with SEO.

I think you're probably thinking of article directory marketing, aren't you? Trying to gain rankings/SEO benefits by accumulating backlinks attached to mass articles submitted to places which will accept them with no approval process? If you are, the answer's no - it isn't working at all, and can very easily run your site into a heavy SEO penalty from Google, especially if you've used automated submission software.

The forum's full of people to whom that happened, and some of them have even pasted in here parts of the eventual replies they've had from Google, telling them openly that that's why their sites have been so heavily penalized.

It was always a dumb idea, anyway: backlink quality depends on the quality and relevance of the site - not just the page - on which the backlinks appear. Article directory backlinks have been worthless for many years. People say that it was only the Panda and Penguin updates that did the damage to this misguided and silly approach to SEO, but that's actually wrong. It was more or less a non-starter well before that. That's why even as far back as 2009, the standard, accepted, recognised SEO textbook writers were (wisely and correctly) pointing out that you'd need 50,000 - 100,000 of "those backlinks" to give you the same linkjuice as that from one quality backlink on a relevant site that doesn't accept automated submissions.

What's changed, since then, is that the Penguin update now eats for breakfast sites that have that number of crappy backlinks.

It used to be "just a waste of time", in other words, but now it's worse than just that: it's positively damaging.

These threads are among the 100+ here that might help anyone naive enough still to imagine that mass, automated article directory submission might be a "good" thing to do.

Forget this idea, Imran. Truly, it's a dreadful one. Just hope that your competitors don't try and do it for your site as "negative SEO", as some people sadly do, these days (which is, of course, why Google had to introduce their Link Disavowal Tool, having opened the door to negative SEO). Sorry.

I hope you mean this ironically/sarcastically, but I have a sneaking suspicion that you may actually be serious!

By the way, if anyone's interested, as it happens article marketing (as opposed to what's being asked about here, which isn't really article marketing at all) is still working for quality backlinks (though those are only a side-benefit, rather than its main purpose), and in fact even better since the Google updates helped us out quite a bit by effectively removing the sites of so many of the spammy backlinkers from the SERP's. This is what article marketing involves: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post5035794

All my posts say the exact opposite, Imran. Large and increasing numbers of Warriors are successfully making our livings from article marketing, these days. Did you read someone else's posts instead of mine? Or are you talking about article directory marketing? (That's a complete waste of time, I'll agree!).

It isn't what you want to hear, and I apologise in advance for that, but personally, I'd advise you not to put much of your time and effort into trying to attract "organic SERP's" traffic, for two main reasons: first, it's very precarious and makes your business Google-dependent, and any business that's Google-dependent is no more than one algorithm-change away from a potential accident (or even a potential disaster), as so many Warriors have been finding out over the last year or two, some of them to their very great cost; secondly, for me, search engine traffic has been uniformly the worst-converting traffic out of everything I've ever tried in 8 entirely different niches over the whole of the last 4 years - search engine visitors to all my websites typically stay the least time, view the fewest pages, opt in the least often and actually buy anything by far the least often. I admit I do get tons of search engine traffic to all my main sites (just because of all the high rankings I've got, incidentally, from article syndication to relevant sites) but I'd certainly hate to have to make a living from that traffic! Google rankings are not really much of a "traffic-generating plan" at all.
