I mentioned that I would make a specific post re article submitting using software, so here we go…
I’ve tried a number of article submitting software products over the months and years but the best one for me (I feel comfortable with it) is Unique Article Wizard (UAW).
Now before some of you begin poo-poo-ing UAW – I understand that its had some bad press on the Warrior Forum of recent, and probably for good reason actually; I would like to have my say about it, if I may.
I’ve been using this software on and off for around 15 months now, so I’ve got a fair bit of experience with it. I dip in and out with it as it costs $67 a month and some months I focus on other aspects of my business than mass article submission. No point paying up when you are not using the service, right?
Early days with it I had problems no doubt. I found that although I was sticking within the “guidelines” – 25 submissions a day etc. I was not getting the results that I wanted and expected. I checked this out with some members of an IM forum I was frequenting back then and received good feedback in general about it – UAW. So I persevered, thinking that if others are getting good results then so must I.
Well, to cut a long story shorter, I was not entirely satisfied with the results. The philosophy is sound – submit articles to many directories and blogs and other websites all on different IP’s to get sound backlinks. Seems good, no?
I did manage to get some reasonably good results with it… some top 10′ers in Google and Yahoo and Bing too, even where the keywords were pretty tough. Although these web pages yoyo-d tremendously. But one thing I have also noticed is that, even though many of those pages I hit hard with UAW a while back are no-where near top 10 in Google or any of the other search engines, if I set up a small campaign to get some quality backlinks now to those same web pages, it does not take too much to really get them pumping up the ranks.
Thus, there does appear to be an “innate” strength left over from days gone by if UAW has been used. That’s food for thought I think!
An example: I have a site that I thought I could rank fairly easily – I spent a lot of money on it – outsourced the writing and outsourced some of the programming (tweaking). In fact, I was paying a young lady to go buy the books, read them and then write a review about them.
Kinda dumb perhaps! Hindsight is a good thing, no doubt. 
The site managed to get into top 10 – 8th was the highest in Google, for its main keyword, which was a tough keyword, simply because I blasted it (to death) with UAW articles. It was up and down for a long time. In and out. But finally settled around 8th position in Google (I think it got to about 5th in Yahoo).
Another related keyword it was ranking in Google around 6th, which also
was bringing in quite a bit of traffic.
Let me just check where this site is now for those keywords.
6th for the main keyword and 3rd for the secondary. Not bad.
The point is though that lately I sent a few links (around 25 only) back to it via Blog Blueprint which I mentioned before and other than this I have done nothing with the site for months.
I suspect if I took time to send a few more links via Blog Blueprint or some other quality tool (or perhaps setting up Squids etc. then I could get those rankings just that bit higher.
And considering my site is only a PR1 (those particular web pages that are ranking are PR1), and the site is around 18 months old, its doing well. Its outranking a few PR6′s that also have high Alexa rankings, domain age and a number of other things besides.
Hmmm… what does this tell you?
There is another way I use UAW too which I shall write up in another post coming soon.
Sorry for going on a bit there – its been a long hard struggle with Unique Article Wizard but just by observing the longer term results and experimenting a bit here and there with some techniques, I think UAW can be utilized to really pump up the volume, so to speak.
If you yourself decide to invest in it, just don’t go mad with it. Its easy to mass submit to get lots of links back to your site in short shrift, but this is not wise if you want to rank in Google. In Yahoo and Bing, I suspect they are more forgiving about those mass, fast linking techniques.
I’ll discuss a way to actually blast out your links from UAW (or any similar software) without it hurting your site in the slightest way, while providing some really nice juice to your chosen site pages. That’s coming up!
