    I made a huge mistake on my article in the title, you can go back and edit it but it will have to be resubmitted all over again. Mine is 3rd on 1st page of google, so I left it, its still gets viewed. I was trying to say become an exciting woman and I spelled exciting exiting. How funny is that. I am sure some men would love the woman to exit, but thats not what I meant.

    but if I resubmit, will the article retain its name or will some variables change?, an ezine article can have quite a lenghty name...

    You'll lose your ranking definitely. You'll have to learn to be more cautious in future. I think they warned you twice..

    Note: Saving any changes done to a LIVE article will remove the article from being viewable on the site. Any LIVE or IN-REVIEW article will require a RE-SUBMIT to approve any changes.
    And a pop up with the same warning..

    But you'll still have to resubmit as your live article should have been removed by now ..

    This is why you deal with an article directory that does not mind taking 5 minutes to help you correct the mistake without it needing to be resubmitted. Many are just so lame now, they are caught up so much in their business that they forget the customers/authors/subscribers are the only reason why they are in business...

    I have not submitted a another article to EZA since they upgraded me and it sure has not hurt my traffic any by not submitting more content to them.

    That´s too bad, yeah they still haven´t responded to my e-mail so their support don´t seem to be that good.

    Nice to hear you still manage to get traffic James, guess people find your own domain in the SE.

    But I still would like to know if the article id/name changes when I resubmit?

    Sincerely

      Hi Karl,
      The point is that there are much better places than EZA... As you can see, you made a little mistake but instead of taking 5 minutes to correct that mistake they rather their author suffer by submitting it again so it takes 5 - 7 days for it to be approved again.

      In my opinion this is bad business, it would only take them a few minutes to correct a small mistake... If I ran my business that way for the last 15+ years then I would not be in business today. If a business can not spare 5 minutes of their time and I am giving them $1000's worth of high quality content then this is not a business I want to deal with.

      I am not sure about the id - if you are talking about the id as in the id it has assigned in the database then no that will not change.

      James

    You can edit that article through your account. Still that article will be considered as resubmitted. This might affect your ranking
