Review Sites - Backlinks & Ezines

Well I don't think there is any different method specifically for review sites. I have a number of them myself and I just build backlinks as I would for any other sites.
As far as Ezine are concerned, they don't allow you to submit overly promoted articles. To get around them, let's say you have a review site about tents. Write an article about how to look for a quality tent and then add "If you would like to learn more about finding great tents, visit.....".

That should do the trick.

Alright, I'll give it a try. Initially my page, which is a WordPress blog, had a home/main page that was promoting a product. But there was a blog that was easily accessible.

None of the blog posts talked about any products at all. I guess since the main page talked about a product EZA denied it. I just assumed that if my landing page/main page was nothing but product reviews, EZA would just label it the same (spammy/commercial) and declince it all over again. I guess I'll just have to give it a try.

I must say that EZA really isn't my focus these days. I'd really like to utilize them, but they're just such jerks about everything. I can post 50 articles all over the web in the time it takes them to review & decline my 1 article to them. Just absurd.

But of course I want to utilize their traffic and get some backlinks from my articles on their site. Ah, well.. will see.

One good alternative to ezinearticles is buzzle, depending on the niche Ive found I get better traffic from them in some cases and also a good amount of article views.
