Where To Post Quality Articles

Where is the best pace to Post articles, for traffic, not SEO. I'll explain.

Do you know when you discover awesome keywords completely unintentionally? Well whenever it happens to me, i write it down in a document i have for these keywords. 90 percent of them are amazon keywords but here is the problem i face. They are all unrelated, and none are worth starting a site from scratch from.

Is there a place where i submit my article with my amazon links that will get traffic? Most of these article directories that are anywhere near the top of Google don't allow affiliate links in the body of the article.

So where can i put these articles of keywords?

    Your blog (network).

    Unfortunately, there's no place where we can submit articles and reap free traffic. If there was, we'd all be making several K's a month.

    Authority sites in your niche are a good place to start, and can be solid traffic sources for you. Each one has its own terms and conditions however, so you'll have to ensure you're allowed to include affiliate links in your articles.
    Even if you can't, however, they pretty much all allow you to include a link back to your site in your signature.

    You could do a general blog that covers a wide range of topics. Or you can try Squidoo like mentioned above or a similar site called hubpages. Squidoo seems to get ranked higher though.

      Wherever else you publish an article, ALWAYS publish it on your site first and wait until it's been indexed by Google so that you are attributed first rights.

        Hi, Annie:

        I'm relatively new to the world of blogging and SEO. This is something I have been wondering about. I recently started a niche site and will be doing my first guest post on a reputable and relevant blog very soon.

        So, you're saying I should post the article to my site first and then get it indexed, before I do the guest post?

        I assume there won't be a duplicate content penalty since I will be posting the original on my blog?

        Is this normal procedure for guest posting?

        The site owner wants the content to be 100% original and not found anywhere else on the net. I get that. He will also allow 2 backlinks to my site. I just want to make sure that I get indexed as the original.

        Any advice or thoughts?

        Thanks!

    You might try Hubpages. I think they have a built in way to use Amazon affiliate links. So you could optimize a Hub with your keywords, publish some really relevant content and then link to the specific Amazon products you want to promote. Just be sure to include good reviews of each product in the Hub and ensure the content of the hub is the same as the products being linked to, otherwise it comes across as spammy and can get your Hub flagged/deleted.

      You will need to get your Hubpage to a score of 75 before the page has do follow links. Otherwise, you are still stuck with no follow links. Even so, the site has relevance though for SEO and direct traffic generation and is very much worth pursuing.

        A little "trick" that I've been using for many years is to include referenced citations within my articles from recognized authority sources. But rather than having direct links to references, I put a numerical superscript [1] for citation. The references themselves, however, are on my website, including a bibliography of all citation sources along with additional resources.

        When allowed by publishers, I often have links within the article body for added reference, expanded explanation, or citations from authoritative sources. All of these links point to my website first, then the reader may follow to the original referenced source. What this does is provide added exposure to other resources on my website including ... the Amazon products I'm selling. It not only can enhance readers' experience, but will most likely also retain their attention longer on your own website/blog.

        BTW, this technique works quite well for syndicating [2] articles to niche-relevant ezines, websites, blogs, etc. Most publishers will have no objection, with the caveat that it is not overtly self-serving and/or overused (not more than 3-5 internal links per article). Include a brief description or summary of each linked reference/citation.
