Better LinkJuice - EZA Only or Using Several Article Directories

Hello,

I apologize if this is discussed elsewhere. I couldn't find what I was looking for.

In regards to building backlinks to my small niche sites I am submitting all my articles to EZA almost exclusively. I have used GoArticles a little too. My question is do you know if the search engines give more link juice if I were to spread out my articles among the top 5-10 article directories instead of just EZA? Do the search engines not give as much credit to the backlinks if they all come from one domain, aka EzineArticles.com? Would they give more link juice if there were backlinks from multiple domains? Or does each article submitted to EZA count as separate entities by themselves?

Does that all make sense? :-)

I understand that as long as the same article does not mirror itself on the same domain that there is no duplicate content penalty. I guess I just want to know if its actually worth it to submit to several article directories or if EZA carries enough link juice weight by itself.

I know I can test this myself but I thought I would check with everyone here first to see if you've tested this in the past and what you found.

Thanks for all your help!

Drew

    With regards to backlinks a variety of sources is far preferable to all of it coming from one source. The main advantage of Ezine is that you usually get a lot more views of your article than at other article directories, and thus more clickthroughs to your site.

    If your goal is to improve your niche website's ranking in the SERPs you should look at developing a variety of backlinks from a variety of sources. If your ONLY goal is to get clickthroughs to your website then Ezine articles can be very powerful, but you want to build linkjuice, so you should definitely be trying to get a variety of backlinks from a variety of sources. Don't just use article directories either. Spread it out.

      Ezine is by far the best for direct traffic from your article. However, for backlinks I would syndicate your article to as many directories as possible. Despite what some people think, poor quality links can't hurt you, at worst they won't benefit you. So I would go all out.

      You could look into some tools that will automate the process, such as Unique Article Wizard, Article Marketing Automation, etc. You could also outsource it to someone. I've used mark@1to101's (from this forum) article distribution service before, and he does an amazing job. Fair price too.

      I must agree with this!

      Varying your link source will look more natural than spammer! That's why when people say that bookmark / directory don't work, but when combining all these "don't work" stuff, you get everything work!

    What I do is submit your article first to EZA. Once it gets accepted, either hire someone to rewrite it or just send the articles to some other top directories. I normally hire someone to submit the articles to the following sites:

    Remember, the more links the better but always remember that it's better to have 5 quality backlinks then 50 very worthless ones.

    Of course if you want to go a little dirty, purchase an article submitter that submits your sites to say 500 different directories with a seeded article. This will in essence get you 500 backlinks and increase your rankings by a lot if you do it right. Be sure to ping your newly published articles and even do some basic social bookmarking if you have the tools and manpower.

    Put it on your site FIRST.

    Then submit to EZA and everywhere else under the sun (via article bot by Big Mike- cheap and does a great job)

    Warmly,
