Article Marketing - Why You Should Only Submit Unique Articles

by Kristin L. Thorne

Writing and submitting articles has been an increasingly popular way to market products and websites. It can be a very effective way to create inbound links to your websites, but only if it is done the correct way!

It is a cheap - but sometimes a very time consuming job to write and submit articles to hundreds of ezine lists and article directories. To ease your job, you possibly use one of article marketing submission tools you can find on the internet, either free or paid ones.

You write your article carefully, use all the right keywords, and all the SEO strategies you know, and you also create a compelling author resource. When you have done that, you enter your new article into the article marketing software tool, and hit the Submit button.

Now you just sit back, and wait for the rush of traffic that your great article will bring to your website. Just if things were that easy! Maybe you have had success submitting your articles that way in the past, but not anymore.

The rules of the internet change rapidly, so submitting articles doesn’t give you the same results it did a few years ago.

The Problem:

What happens, is that you now submit the same version of your article to every article directory, which means you are spreading duplicate content all over the net. Most of the major search engines now filter out duplicate content, so even though your article is now on hundreds of article sites, now it may only count as one single inbound link to your website.

The Solution:

To keep submitting your articles to the article directories, but only unique versions of each article, because you want each and every article to produce a unique link to your site. By submitting unique articles once a week, or more frequently, you can have hundreds or thousands of inbound links to your website within a few months!
