Article Syndication for SEO Purposes

Hey Everyone,

I run an offline business that has branches in 3 locations in the state I live in. I've read alot of the posts on here about article marketing (not article directory marketing,) and Alexa and a few of the others recommend syndicating the same article they use on their sites to other relevent blogs. I see how this would work for getting direct traffic to your blog, but what about for SEO? With only having 3 locations, any traffic I get from this won't be very targeted unless I focus on blogs specific to these locations. Because of this I'm pretty reliant on SEO. Do you guys (and gals) that do this feel that the links you get from these articles are helping you move up in the search engines? I know Google only will index one version of an article and the rest go into the supplemental index, so is their any link juice passed on from these articles in the supplemental index? Thanks for any help.

    Yes - dramatically. As explained at the end of this post: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post5035794

    The nearly-20% of my traffic that I get through SEO now is far more than I ever got when I was trying to "do off-page SEO" just because with article syndication, the sites concerned are all going to be relevant ones. Otherwise they wouldn't want the articles. Quality and relevance are what primarily determine linkjuice.

    Yes, exactly the same as from the main index. A backlink on any given page of the web isn't worth any less/more because the page on which appears happens at some particular moment to be listed in the supplemental index, rather than in the main index, for some particular search-term, as explained in this post: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post5867601
