Duplicate Content and Article Submission - Get the Facts

Article submission is one of the best ways to get backlinks for your website, which can lead to increased traffic and more sales. The algorithms that create search engine rankings are secret, but one thing Internet marketers know is that backlinks are a major component. The more backlinks that you have related to a specific keyword phrase, the more likely that you’ll rank well for that specific keyword phrase.

Understanding that, the goal for Internet marketers becomes getting quality backlinks to their websites from as many websites as possible. In an attempt to do so, many marketers post the same article to several different article directories. While each of these article directories represents several backlinks to your website, there’s also the concern of duplicate content.

In addition to using backlinks to weigh the importance of a website, Google uses duplicate content filters to remove duplicate instances of the same content from search results. This is done to prevent website publishers from stealing content from others and publishing it as their own.

But does this apply to article directories? If you submit articles to several different article directories, will your content get caught in the duplicate content filters?

There is no definitive word on what constitutes duplicate content and what does not – but Google does try to find the original source of the content and place that first in the search engine results. This means that your website with your article will appear in your article on EzineArticles.com in the search engine results. Your main website gets preference in search engine rankings.

Your article in Ezine Articles.com and other article directories may also be safe because the duplicate content filters are specifically looking for plagiarized content. Anything you submit to an article directory is considered to be syndicated to that directory. You’re doing the submitting so you’re obviously not plagiarizing yourself. Other individuals can get in trouble if they steal your content from your site or the article directory and post it on their own website. But your article submissions will be safe.

With this in mind, what should you do to make sure that your article directory submissions are going to give you the best results? Here are three important tips to remember.

1. Use original content.

Even though your articles will be distributed over many different directories, your primary article should be original. It shouldn’t be spun or rewritten from another source. This can really affect the quality of the content and even if it isn’t caught by duplicate content filters, it could get you caught by the article directories.

2. Use the right keywords.

Effective article marketing is all about choosing the right keywords. Make sure you do keyword research first and avoid shooting into the dark with your writing and article distribution. Use your target keyword as your anchor text for your backlinks.

3. Create a strong call to action.

Traffic from distributed articles will come from the backlinks and readers who like what you have to say and click on your link. Make sure that your bio box includes a strong call to action that will motivate your reader to take the next step with you.

Why Do We Need Back Links?

November 2, 2010

Why Do We Need Back Links?

Gilbert and I (Joseph) decided to create this group to allow Apsense to achieve the ultimate goal of becoming the biggest and most recognize Social Site on the internet for, "Business Marketing". The objective here is to fully understand what a backlink is and what it will do for your web site. Why l created this blog, several days ago, to illustrate to you the ability it will have for you and your site.

Backlinks are the most important factor in determining your competitively high rankings among all the search engines for the key words phrases you desire to target. This is a very unique concept compared to paid key word phrases done by so called professional SEO (Search Engine Optimization). The reason why, is that textual content still the best and easiest to produce and the best simply because the search engines read text the best and fastest. When it is all original, the problem with paid content is that search engines have read or seen so the originality of it is lost.

So now the reason we all need more backlinks is to provide us with unlimited clickable links that leads back to your site. This is a very important and determine factor when it comes to determine a SERP (Search Engine Ranking Page), the more backlinks you have, the more visible you become within search engines such as Google, Bing, MSN etc, etc. Without backlinks the only way anyone who matters is going to found your site on the internet is if you supply them with your address to your site.


Now we have learned a little about how important backlinks are to your website, backlinks should be added on a weekly base, the more you do the more visibility your site will have. Working at it and improving it, what l like to call it is playing the game as l posted on my blog. Having fun learn the art of directing the search engine to your site, all we are trying to do without having to pay for this search.


Now all of your thinking yea l know that, we all do, well most of us. The key answer here is l know one thing not many of you are doing it. I look at your sites and l measured them to see how they perform. Why do l do this? Well for the simple reason it is how l learn all of this stuff by try and error, the more l do it the better l get at it. Not many making it on the internet, when you have the ability to generate $200,000.00 - $450,000.00 per a month then you are doing something right. That is gross profits, what we would sell per month as an average.


The sad part of this l hardly ever met any of my clients, all about trust and honor, most of my trucks went to Japan and Europe no room for mistakes. When you have that trust, from your clients you have a pretty good market. I found them all on the internet, back doing what l just shared with you. Most of them found me, and the rest was easy.


See so far there has only been 8 new members that have joined my blog and only three of them left comments on my posts. See every time you visit this blog or any other blog and leave a comment, follow that blog you have created your site to become more visibly among the search engines what we call a backlink. So what was the cost factor TIME the most expensive item.


So if you are really ready to get serious on the internet and become good at making clients come to your site, then you need to start right now. You need to starting adding backlinks to your site on a daily bases, let them add up check how many back links your site has daily, weekly, monthly by using this tool. Before we do that, l want you to follow this blog and learn from it, check its backlinks against your sites.
