A quick run-down of my progress today…
Wrote out another 2 articles re Twilight Saga and then spun both of these to give me a total of 500 fresh articles of around 50% uniqueness, which is plenty to avoid a Google footprint – this would be my main concern by far.
Once again, for every single spun article, I will then fairly meticulously go through it to ensure the syntax is good and the actual article is good – at least that it reads well.
Why bother? I believe now more than ever before that any content I submit to the internet should be at a minimum of decent quality.
And why? Good question – after all much of what is submitted to the internet is possibly never even seen by the human eye.
For me personally, I just get this sense that for the extra effort I make early on – to ensure that my stuff is decent, there is more chance of it being circulated around the internet – webmasters (is there such a word as “webmistresses“?) – webmasters and webmistresses may come along in search of content for their own site, see a quality article (such as mine – I hope), and grab it for their own site.
Another webmaster/webmistress then notices the article on the new site and swipes it for their site, so on…
Chances are that if we are in the habit of submitting sub-par content it has little chance of circulating any place other than the trash can!
Chances are that if you are in the habit of submitting quality content then at the very least some of it will find its way a LOT further afield than simply its original destination.
So what am I doing with this new content?
I will not submit it to Hubpages that’s for sure! Sorry Hubs!
And I will not make further submissions to the article directories that I have already used and listed in previous posts. For your information, here they are again…
Ezinearticles.com
GoArticles.com
AmazineArticles.com
ArticleBlast.com
ArticleAlley.com (still awaiting publication)
ArticleDashboard.com (still awaiting publication)
and a couple of new ones…
iSnare.com (still awaiting publication)
ArticleRich.com
Why not make further submissions to those article directories where I can get some really healthy backlinks to my site?
Well, the more I ponder this, the more I believe that once you have a link back from another site then that’s that, the IP address that it sits on is “spent” – as far as Google is concerned anyhow. (Anyone with thoughts about this do please contribute, thanks!). Providing of course that the particular page you are seeking the backlink from has been indexed.
This last point does cause confusion, but I would have very serious doubts that a link back from any web page that is not indexed (in this case, let’s say indexed in Google) would count as anything at all. There’s no juice going to come from a page that has not been indexed.
There are ways and means to encourage indexing of these pages, such as pinging the page with the likes of http://pingoat.net/ or by “pushing” backlinks to the pages.
Further, I posted up another 30 post snippets to Blog Blueprint, ready for tomorrow’s 20 post submissions, with a few left over.
I’ve also began to use a new software just last night to make some submissions in a very much drip-feed manner – slow but sure. This is not good if you want a mass of fast backlinks for whatever purpose, but if you are looking to rank a relatively new website such as the http://twilightposterz.com site, then attaining links in this slow drip feed way is perfect!
Perfect for Google, anyhow.
Don’t get me wrong here, and this is something that you should pay attention to as its been a subject for confusion for long enough.
Let’s say you did a blog post on a new blog that was really hot. Somebody who was searching around the net stumbled across your web page and thought “dang, this is great stuff – I got to let others know about it!”.
Sure enough, others do find out about it and they feel exactly the same, your content is so hot, its just about too hot to handle! The snowball effect begins – rolling down the hill and getting bigger and faster with every second.
What’s almost certain to happen here?
You will find that simply because your content is precisely what a lot of people want, you will get a lot of “natural” backlinks in a very short space of time!
Now, is Google going to like this? After all, we hear all the time that Google wants us to see backlinks to our web pages, but if we get them too quickly we will be “sand-boxed” (call this what you will… here is a definition of “sand-boxed” for anyone who requires further understanding (I think we all do – its one of those Google secret things where they don’t really tell anyone much)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandbox_effect
If our page gets sandboxed it may not be seen again by any web searchers for months! All that hard work for nothing, right?
But this concept is not entirely true. If our web page/s were to attain truly natural backlinks even at a rate of knots, we will tend to find that those pages are going to be heading up fast in the search engines rankings. Its of no consequence that the links are coming very thick and very fast – they are natural links after all and Google is totally fine with this!
Its when the links are unnatural that the problems begin. If you were to attain a mass of backlinks in a week from say, a few different websites or a few different IP addresses, I suggest you’ll have problems, at least for some time to come. Big ol’ Goog is not going to like this at all!
Keep this in mind when next you are considering your own backlinking campaign. The more natural your backlinks appear (are) the more you will be rewarded (as a general rule) by the likes of our beloved Google!
The software I mentioned re drip feeding of backlinks – I’ve yet to do a review of on my site, so – sorry, but I’ll discuss this further sometime soon. Please also remember that I do not recommend ANY software products that I have not used myself and have not benefited from myself! I value you as my reader as much as to say that I want the best for you, as I do for myself, and that’s that!
I can’t be any fairer than this so please, no shots at me down the broadside, thanks!
If I am to provide a review for this particular software I mention, its not due to the SEO results I’ll be seeing with it already. Obviously SEO does not usually work that quickly (it can, but under certain circumstances). I used this software previously so I am already familiar with it. More about this a little later.
Next, I used my Unique Article Wizard account to make two sets of article submissions. These articles usually take around 3 days to be accepted and published, but they are in the pipeline, so to speak.
I don’t just mass submit my articles using this type of software however. That would be imprudent in the highest degree of imprudence, for reasons I’ve just discussed. However, I use these articles (backlinks from the articles) in a fashion that may not be commonly practiced.
Now, I mentioned this before and I am sorry to keep “teasing”. I want to leave this at the moment – get a slightly earlier night so I can make a nice early start in the morning, and make some healthy progress!
I shall make a point to discuss how I use Unique Article Wizard tomorrow, and that’s a promise! Its nothing ground-breaking but its most probably something that many of us have never even considered before – is all I shall say right now.
Best wishes and to your success!

Thanx for this very useful tips.
I just wonder though, if I want to submit articles to all those articles publishing sites, can I submit the same articles to each site?

Hi Nalisa, nice to have you over here! Yes you can do that, but the problem is that its gonna be duplicate content. Thus for the larger search engines the links that you manage to gain from those duplicate articles are not nearly as worthy as would be unique articles with unique bio-boxes.
Its always best to write up your articles to at least 30% uniqueness. Some folks would argue less, some would argue more. I myself always go for more, but that’s just me – I use a spinning software tool so its very simple to achieve a good level of uniqueness just by writing up a single article.
Some internet marketers would maybe say that this is “cheating” and Google will find out. Hmmm, somehow I don’t think so.
Please feel free to keep asking any questions you may have Nalisa. Take care and have a good day here in Kuching, the cat’s city!
Regards
Joseph
