I dont get the strategy.. what are you gaining by putting the same articles on web20s, without links? If anything I'd do the reverse, because web20's should carry more weight, but still.. no links? Arent you just creating duplicate content issues for yourself, in effect lessening the power of your postings? Sounds silly to me..

huh!! why post articles without links.. that serves no purpose..
repurpose the articles (re-write.. NOT spun) and leave the links intact..

Yah, I'm a newb too, and that makes no sense to me.

Are you interpreting the wso instructions correctly? I know they can be confusing at times.

The article directory part is straight forward. But maybe spin each of the unique article from the directories for the web 2.0's, to make more use of the unique articles.

If I understand correctly, this is your first tier backlinks. Try a second tier of web 2.0 with a spun content from a single article with links pointing to the first tier of web 2.0 sites.

I think the general map is to continue til you have 4 to 5 tiers.

Trying this myself with my first site too.

Good luck!

The strategy was to make 3 posts on the web 2.0s . The first 2 would be straight copies of articles submitted to article directories (without the links). The 3rd one would a spun article with links.

I have read it correctly!!

(p.s. yes it sounds silly to me now, when I bought the WSO I was a complete newbie so did not fully understand this kind of stuff , I started to question it now - but thought I'd get the advice of others on here )

You are posting articles without links so what are you looking for?

that is half of the strategy... what the wso probably meant was to build web 2.0s with the dup content from your site untill they mature a little while and then start adding articles with backlinks on your main site. my guess...
