Intermiediate Article Marketing

by Neil S
6 replies
So you have written and published a bunch of articles. Some have been wild successes and other duds. Now do you attempt to duplicate your success by writing articles very similar to the successful ones? I mean using essentially the same titles but just shifting the words a little bit? Or would this kill the juice of your original successful article?

I ask this because some of my best article titles have been almost copied exactly by others and now their articles are getting thousands of hits. Should I do the same or would it kill my the success of my original article?

    Neil,
    Yup, that's a technique I've been using very successfully for almost a year. I revealed my method of finding and using titles during my presentation at this year's System Seminar. A few folks took the information and placed it in their own products so it has spread throughout the Internet.

    Also what I was recommending was capitalizing on this by making use of pen names so you could essentially fill the top spot up on Google with all of your articles.

    I will tell you that in order offset this Ezinearticles.com implemented a change in their system so that you can no longer have the exact title of your article as another author which means you must add a few extra words here and there but this hasn't caused a problem because as long as you identify the root keyword phrase in the title that is responsible for the page views you simply add another phrase before or after teh main keyword phrase.

    This allows you to stay within the guidelines established by Ezinearticles.com and still enjoy lots of page views!!!!

    Keep in mind that as the search engines change so do the article directories which is why I'm always working on finding new methods to harness the full ROI from any article I submit.

    Respectfully,

      So we would be better off using a different Pen name? Does this effect the SERPS somehow?

          Buddy,
          It may be that they are still attempting to work the bugs out because I've also had some articles using the exact same title as another already published article that I was able to get published but I've also had some that would not publish which leads me to believe that it is something they are trying to implement on a wide scale.

        Neil,
        Using a pen name is merely one strategy you can use to harness the power of a page viewing title.

          But have you noticed a discernable difference between re-releasing an article title through a pen name rather than the original name?

            I have noticed no negative effects but keep in mind that the title is the only thing that is similar.......the article is a completely new article which looks nothing like the original article.

            When I spin an article I don't mind if it is somewhat similar innature to the original article but nothing that is spinned is ever submitted to ezinearticles.com, only to other directories and locations. Anything I submit to Ezinearticles.com has to be an original article that will stand on its own merits.
