Duplicate article links count after time?!?!

Guys,

I know that the same duplicated article can rank on Google for a term under different sources, e.g Ezinearticles, Squidoo etc etc.

However after time, do these links still count and does the article still rank etc?

I want to know whether to buy something like MAR - or whether it isnt really worth it, and I can just keep sending out the same article to all the quality directories etc.

Thanks

  • Nope, it don't work that way anymore, Google filter all duplicated result in their SERP!

    You can, however use article spinner and create different version of the same article, submit it to many web 2.0 properties to get multiple listing on the keyword!

    • I have sites that I have used only plr articles that have been indexed many times prior to me using them and it hasn't effected my rankings one bit.

      As for Google filtering out all duplicate copies, what do you have to say about this?

    • Google does not filter anything, why do people continue with this myth ... I have an article I just posted and it takes up 6 spots with the same exact article.. Nothing is spun, it is exactly the same..

      Sorry but this myth is bad advice...

      People can spin articles if they choose but it is NOT required to do so. There are benefits to spinning an article but again it is NOT required, google does NOT filter nothing..

  • Thanks - anymore opinions out there?

    I think there must be something to spinning, as lots of people rave about services like UAW etc, and if traditional article marketing worked for links, surely everyone would be using Article Marketer for sheer quantity?
  • Agreed. For backlinks, you do not want to send out the same article. If you choose to spin your articles though, 'spin them well!', otherwise you'll be wasting your time.
  • I believe the content of the articles need to be about 30% to 40% unique in order to play it on the safe side and be considered a unique article but I could be wrong.

    • I too not sure about the percentage, but the more the better !
  • Does this mean that if you publish an article at EZA, and someone puts it on his blog, that this link does not count. Since the article is 100% the same.

    • My experience tells me it count, but not as much as an unique content. How much link juice will pass, I don't know!

      I see some site rank well with duplicated posts all over the sites, but not on competitive keywords...
  • As I just said on another thread here I've seen many marketers I trust say strongly that duplicate content is a myth, and that "relevant" backlinks are great for SEO. I have heard it enough times and from enough sources that I have to agree that duplicate content is a myth.

    • Yes, 2 conditions here:

      1. You need to find low competition keywords, with a lot of searches but yet to have much content created!

      2. High competition keywords with a lot of unique content around, you are no luck unless you backlinks your duplicated content!

      If you disagree, I would appreciate if you can prove to me!

  • Define "highly competitive keywords", because the ones that are truly competitive cannot be achieved without backlinks at all, at least not for long.

    However, low-mid competition terms can be achieved provided the right authority, trust rank and internal linking patterns of your site, without backlinks.

    As for duplicate content, yeah, it's a myth. It only applies if you use it in excess within the very same site.

    But publishing the content in separate sites will have no negative effect whatsoever.

    • Hi Daniel,
      I would like to see someone actualy define that myself .. Fact is a highly competitive keyword is defined by the person trying to rank for those keywords and everybody will have a difference of opinion on what highly competitive means..
