Considering how much time and money an online marketer spends on article marketing, we want to get the most value possible from our efforts.  Regardless if we write our articles in-house or outsource to a professional writing service, we need to recoup our expenses by increasing our traffic and, ultimately, our sales.

Article directories are the most frequently used distribution point for our content.  There are three advantages to using a good article directory.  First, a top tier article directory attract a lot of traffic.  That means a lot of people have an opportunity to find our article there.  An attractive title will encourage a lot of those visitors to read our articles and, perhaps, click through to our website.

Second, webmasters of other sites within our niche will pick up our article with our embedded links for publication on their own sites.  These sites will typically have far less traffic than the article directories, however that traffic will tend to be highly targeted.  Consequently, we can expect a higher proportion of those niche website’s visitors to choose to read our article.

The third advantage is that the search engines are very likely to notice the links to our site from the syndicated article, and, as a result, our search engine listings are probably going to improves.  However part of that improvement will be limited and temporary, because most of the repeated instances of publication of that same article will be considered duplicate content. 

We can get some additional benefit by providing each directory with a unique version of our article.  We can accomplish that efficiently using article spinning.  But even if we submit a unique article to each directory, the individual sites that take their content from that directory will still be duplicate content.  Thus, while spinning our article prior to submission to multiple directories is a great improvement, we can still do even better in squeezing value from our article marketing efforts.

An alternative to using only article directories is to also distributed unique articles to individual sites within our marketing niche.  Unfortunately this can be a time consuming challenge in identifying potential publishers for our articles and then convincing those webmasters that they can actually benefit from publication of our articles (and our contextual links).

Fortunately there is a semi-automated system to make implementation of this peer-to-peer exchange easier.  I think of it as a content distribution cooperative.  I provide a complete description of this automated content distribution system elsewhere.

Finding free articles to put on your website does many things to help you with search engine rankings.  First off, free web content articles provide direct niche content that your viewers are always looking for.The better the content on your site, the longer on average people will stay online at your site.Almost any addition of quality content will allow your site to be more well rounded and appear higher in the search engine rankings.Having a bunch of additional content allows you to broaden out your target keywords and pull in more page views.

One of the main keys to keep in mind is to really tailor the articles you add on your site to your specific niche.If you have a site about gardening and tools – you dont want information non related to gardening, it just does not really make sense.  Often the addition of a blog to a site about the niche is a great addition, as you can post all the articles you find interesting to this blog.  Its simple to do, and best of all its free.  If you build your site up enough, people will start bookmarking it as a great source of information AND a good place to buy stuff they need.The big thing is to add content to make your site more interesting – this expands your audience.In addition to a blog, you can use RSS feeds from other sources to keep your content fresh and updated.This is a great option for those people who simply do not have the time to update content themselves every day or every few days.Blogs by others, or an article directory are often a terrific source of niche content, all of which you can pull in using an RSS feed.  Whenever that person updates a story or article,  The RSS feed can pull all or part of that content into your site so your readers can have access to it.

No matter if you use a blog addition, RSS feed, or simply post the articles yourself, this will equate to higher search engine rankings in the long haul because you are increasing the quality of your site.This will also start to remove sites that dont have as much content or do not really work on it – their hurt is your gain.  Using an article directory is a must have for those looking to build up the back links to their websites.

I have been using My Article Network for a little over a month now, and I have to say I am quite surprised with the results. At first I was very sceptical – I got burnt big time by a similar article submitter service 6 months ago – and those sites have not recovered yet. So this time I wanted to do some thorough testing on some new sites to see what potential seo benefits were on offer. This review is going to set the record straight and hopefully answer some of your questions.

So How Does It Work?

But quickly I want to explain how the system actually works, and what sets it apart from competition such as linkvarna (at $147 per month – ouch!) and submityourarticle. The my article network is comprised of well in excess of 10,000 quality blogs across more than a hundred categories. Now I really want to focus on the point of quality. The most certainly do not accept any old blog onto the network – and they favour older blogs which have a decent amount of PR. Also you can get all your blogs on the network and have fresh content posted automatically – this is going to give them a massive lift.

The more interesting part is that you can submit an unlimited amount of articles, have multiple versions created of the 1 article, then drip feed them to the network of quality blogs over time. The end result is your articles are distributed gradually over time, links build naturally and you gain an unfair advantage over the competition as your Google rankings skyrocket.

Tip 1 – Submit Original Content Only

Now if you are anything like me the initial temptation is going to be to draw out your most successful articles you have already published and put them into the my article network. My strong advice is to re-write them so you start off on the right foot. This is critical as the whole purpose of the network is the creation and re-invention of fresh original content – and obviously it is crucial for Google rankings.

Tip 2 – Spin Article Titles, Body Text & Anchor Links

The spin feature of my article network is unlike anything I have ever seen. In my article network you have the ability to ’spin’ multiple versions of the same article in a few clicks of your mouse. You can choose to do this semi-automated or by using the manual spinning codes. This feature is crucial to the success of the system, and is probably the main reason the service I used earlier failed me so miserably.

I strongly advise you rewrite the titles the full 10 times, and supply at least 2 alternate sentences for every sentence. To do this you would need to provide about 2 alternate sentences for each sentence in the re-write feature. If you have experience with article writing it wont tkae you any longer than 30 mins per article. Believe me when I tell you it will be the most worthwhile 30mins you can invest in article creation.

Tip 3 – Control Where Your Articles Get Published!

I think that the creators should have put in an automatic limit to the number of sites to publish to dependent on the number of versions you have created. Sure the articles are only posted on relevant blogs, but you should be in proportion with the number of versions you created – this will give you more bang for your buck as Google will see more unique versions and give you the power for the backlinks. As I mentioned in Tip 2 for the absolute minimum rewrites – you should limit your site distribution to no more than 20 sites. This will just safeguard you from any potential Google slap.

And My Results?

I have just found that my new sites are now frequently grabbing top 20 placements on Google for pretty competitive terms. For the lesser competitive terms I am on page 1 – and reckon over the next month will knock off the top 3 positions.

My Conclusion?

My Article Network is going to revolutionise article submission, and is probably over time going to make the larger article directories such as ezinearticles.com and goarticles.com less relevant. This is web2.0 at its most powerful and is definitely the future of content sharing and creation on the internet. You should definitely join now while the price is still so low – I have been told they will increase it as the more members join.
