Republishing EZA articles

I seem to see people want to get their EZA articles republished or syndicated. Yet didn't I read that Google now will dump your sites if you do this. Something about adding value. So what is the point of publishing your articles to EZA and the others other than to get a back link. I thought the idea was to get them syndicated and get multiple back links.

I did a site a while back where I just took various articles from EZA and republished them (including the resource box) but then I thought I was putting my AdSense account in jeopardy. So I deleted them all and re-purposed the domain.

Did I do right, or should I have left them up and build on them.

  • i think the opinion on this will vary. Some people might say that is duplicate content... others will say it does really matter

    If CNN publishes a new release and 100 other syndications republish the article, does that make them junk?

    something to think about

    That's how many of us make a living.

    No; either you didn't read that, or you've been reading in some really bizarre and eccentric places.

    The idea is to get them syndicated and in front of targeted traffic that you haven't had to target yourself (and get some relevant backlinks out of it, too).

    In theory, it doesn't help your on-page SEO (I know that's not why you were doing it anyway), and they get indexed in Google's supplemental index rather than in the main index but it doesn't do any harm to the site on which they were originally published and indexed (which is the point, I think?).

    That's in theory.

    In reality, about 20% of the time it does actually do you a little bit of good because they go into Google's main index (though that isn't Google's intention - just the outcome ).

    This is an entirely different matter (and one about which I know nothing).

    Regarding AdSense, I have no idea.

    Regarding anything else, it wasn't necessary to delete them.

    Only people who are using the words "duplicate content" with a totally different meaning from Google's meaning of it, in this context. And in our line of business, that's really not a good way to use words.

  • I am thinking that I may just do this again. I can't write for **** and I don't have a lot of money to outsource the articles. This may help me fill out my site and get more pages for the ads to display on.
  • I have dealt with Ezine in the past, until I had an epiphany that I was wasting good, original content by posting it on a site that I didnt own and had no control over.

    I dont deal with Eza or other article directories anymore and I am not intending to, here is better place for unique content such as my own sites.

    Furthermore, I am of the opinion that if your article is republished by low quality autoblogs, which happens pretty often because they scrape places like ezine and articles base etc, you are not going to get any benefit from that what soever as your article is published and republished by countless autoblogs.

    That's just my opinion of course as I am not a big advocate for posting good original content on someone else's site.

    • So you don't like it if I republish your articles from EZA? Sorry about that, but they encourage it. I guess for you it is better that you not publish your work there as people like me might take it and republish it.

      That's why you should always publish it on your own site first, keeping the initial indexation-rights for yourself, and have it indexed there, and only then submit it to EZA so that you're not wasting it at all, there's no downside involved, and you can still gain from the subsequent syndication ...

      Clearly, like all article marketers who have any success, you need to publish your own work on your own site first. But after doing that, you can gain (enormously!! Many thousands of dollars per month!!) and lose nothing by syndicating it (including to EZA) - that's the entire underlying basis of "article marketing". All gain and no cost, that way.

      So you're not going to gain from those. Big deal. You're going to gain from others, though, and there's no downside. I've never had much difficulty with this, myself, and even those don't cost you anything, anyway. Where's the problem? What you're saying is a little like a best-selling author deciding not to publish his next book just in case anyone ever makes an illicit photocopy of it. :confused:

      Well, please excuse my disagreement, but like a large number of professional marketers here, that's how I make a living ... after ensuring that I always get the maximum available benefit (including the initial indexation-rights) from it myself, of course. I think the thread linked to above may be something of an eye-opener for you, Valera ...

      Widespread syndication would be something extra for you (and it can be a huge "something extra" if you really write for syndication) - it doesn't impact negatively in any way on what you're already doing. It's all "additional" and free-of-charge, not a "substitute for anything".
