Are You Using "Buzzle" ? You could be missing out--Check out this Case Study!

20 replies
Hey Warriors,

What's up?

So Everyone has been going crazy over Ezinearticles since lately and there new changes. Even though I love them and I can't say their changes have affected me but I know some people may be having problems with them.

So check this:

Recently I did submitted a 250 word article to buzzle.com, the keywords had several thousand searches per month.

But there were almost 200,000 competing website on Google. i.e within quotes and over 6,000,000 results without quotes.

However,

After the article was approved with in a week I was in the 9th position on the first page of Google without quotes. I then bookmark the article with onlywire.com and now I am in the 4th position.

So that is something to think about. I know Buzzle has some flaws such as you can only submit 3 articles at a time plus a long waiting period for approval. But there are a lot of benefits and maybe worth it sometimes.

So I hope that may shed some light in some direction for some peeps.

Have a great eve

    Thanks for the idea. I'll give it a shot tomorrow when I go on one of my article writing power sessions. I always love hearing about resources like this.

    I've never heard of Buzzle before, is it relatively new?

    I just started doing some article marketing so this is something I'll have to check out. If I get some similar great results I'll be sure to post them!

    Thanks for the idea,
    Tyson

      Actually Buzzle has been around for a very long time. It is possible the second best article directory after ezinearticles.

    I've always used ezinearticles (and others) because buzzle has this rule about "only original" articles. With other article directories, I can write one article and submit to many. But I really had a feeling that buzzle was special. I wonder if it's worth making a few unique articles for.

    yesacpow, do you use OnlyWire for your site and articles, or do you just bookmark the articles?

    Thanks,

    In case you don't know, Buzzle is not really user friendly.

    In few occasions, they reviewed my articles, and then deleted them. No explanation given.

    The same articles got accepted into EZA without problems.

    Nothing to see here

    Their support is pathetic. If you think waiting a week for EZA to respond to support, you will be waiting 3 months for Buzzle to respond on support. They also edit the articles. I told support to notify me to not edit my articles without my approval and 3 months later the reply I got was "Do not submit articles if edits cannot be made." Talk about user unfriendly. But yeah, they do get the article ranked up high and traffic from it does convert just as well, if not better than EZA.

    Like Chiayee above, I too had 3 articles deleted without warning. They were brand new, never posted elsewhere as well, without warning or reason.

    I like Buzzle, and it seems to work very well for me. I have had problems with their bookmarking links though. They seem to go to an invalid page most of the time I try them. I rarely submit more that 1 article at a time anyway, so the 3 article limit isn't really a big deal for me.

    I've always had great luck with Buzzle articles. But you're right Sleaklight, they are a pain in the butt with their self editing. But they tend to rank really well so the payoff of that, plus the longer wait is usually worth it.

    I logged in just to see stats on my articles, tried to submit and found out my account is suspended due to content in my profile. In my profile I stated the University I am attending and my goals. I don't see anything wrong with it. Now they want me to contact their team, and knowing them, that means a 3 month wait for a reply. I am better off creating a new account. Buzzle is funny

    Buzzle has appaling support and a self-rightous attitude when it comes to accepting articles.

    No warnings or explanations, if they do not like your articles they get deleted and the first you will know about it is when you login and find your pending article gone.

      This is true..

      However, the good side is once your articles are approved they get very good rankings if you optimize them properly. I have seen articles go to the front page out of millions (double figure) of results with no backlinking.

      So I would say every now and again you should give it a shot!

    I stopped submitting to Buzzle over a year ago when I found they were changing my resource box on a few articles. Checked around and this was happening to others as well. Not cool at all. Their support is pathetic at best and it can sometimes take 2 weeks or more to get an article approved.

      So do you guys use Buzzle for backlinks? I was browsing through some articles on the site and all the links in the articles seem to point to other Buzzle articles. Am I missing something?

      The same thing happened to me, which is why I stopped using them too. I find that Buzzle isn't worth the extra aggravation you get with 2 week approvals, deleted articles with NO EXPLANATION and resource box tampering. Their support is non-existant too. In my eyes, Ezine is way better.
