Should I drip feed or bomb?

14 replies
With the aim of promoting and selling my book I have written about 50 articles and opened an account with ezinearticles. Now..

Should I just submit them all at once?

If I submit the articles elsewhere, will Ezine or Google penalise me in some way?

What else can I do with the articles to promote my site?

Thanks in anticipation

    Personally I would drip feed - say submit 10 articles a week and wait until you see the results for your efforts.

    That way you can tweak your resource box accordingly and look at the hits back to your site. Also that will allow you to tweak the article title or the article itself so you don't repeat any errors you have overlooked.

    No google would penalize you if they are all unique articles.

    I always drip feed so I can look at my results and see which of my articles aren't pulling and revise those articles if I have to.

    That's my stategy.

    oh yeah I forgot one other thing - I use Isnare as well and I pay $2 for them to distribute my articles across the net as well. So far no problems.

    Post them to online pr sites such as PR Log, PR Zoom and PR.com. Some of these sites allow anchor text.

      When I send these articles to other directories, can the articles be exactly the same or do I have to spin them a little?

        I actually don't spin my articles at all - they are all the same. Everyone keeps talking about spinning your articles. I say stay away from that because it will make your articles look al the same.

        I would only spin the articles that pull the best. So if your article is getting great feedback I would spin and submit that article 3 weeks later to keep the momentum going.

          I am a big fan of dripping and sprinkling....

          However, I bomb the drip to over 100 directories at one time!

    I have always found dripping works better in the long run, from my testing

    your results last much longer in the SE results

    when you bomb everything I notice the results do not last and you end up adding more material to keep your ranking up there so you end up dripping anyways

    so why not do this at the start

          All these directories that I am going to be drip bombing do I have to join them with the exact same user name. When some do their checks they will find the same article buy another name, even though that is me, and reject it as not being mine. Or are the checks not that thorough?
