I love ezinarticles.com. They send me traffic every single month, and they have a great set of stats. If you’re a platinum member, they even speed up your approval time. This, of course, helps you to get indexed faster, get backlinks faster, and hopefully, moves you up in the search engines.
I love the Unique Article Wizard. They send me traffic every single month, and they have a great set of stats. They get you approved quickly, and start submitting to the directories within a day or so. This, of course, gets your unique content spread all over the Internet world fairly quickly, brings traffic, backlinks, and rankings. I’ve seen it happen over and over again.
One thing I don’t like about the Wizard is that they don’t submit to ezinarticles.com. Bummer. I wish they did, but I knew this all along.
So here is what I do to get the best of both worlds. I write an article with the idea of submitting it to the article directories. I format a resource box and rewrite my article based on instructions from the Unique Article Wizard so it is ready for submission.
Since the chances that my original article will ever appear in any directory are almost zero, I could then safely place this article on my website or submit it to ezinearticles.com in its original form. But, I usually go one step further.
I don’t want content on my website to be the same as what I submit (following a recommendation from Allan Gardyne I read a while ago). So, what I do next depends upon how anxious I am to get the material up on my site. If I’m anxious, I’ll put the original, or a slight rewrite, on my website and I’ll rewrite it just a little and submit to ezinearticles.com.
If I can wait, what I’ll do is wait until my article shows up on uberarticles.com, and grab a unique copy. Then, I modify that unique version of the article just a bit for my website (if appropriate) and post it. Sometimes, I like some things about the original better, so I use that as my guide. Then, I grab another unique version from uberarticles.com, and reformat it just a tad for ezinearticles.com and submit it.
At this point, I can now grab unique versions, or just use the original, and send them to my newsletter subscribers, and post the content on forums if I’m in the mood. So, one article, thousands of unique versions, many uses. And, I get to submit unique content to ezinearticles.com, which is something I suspect very few people are doing.
