SEO Help on how to do article marketing

Google doesn't like duplicated content!

I have been asked by someone regarding the way I submit my articles to the different article directories, do I submit only the hyperlink to my article, or do I submit the entire article. And if I submit the entire article, how do I get past the Google duplicated content shield.

To answer the first question is very simple; I do submit the entire article, not just a link.

Now, the second question is trickier to explain but I will try my best to do so.

The artificial intelligence of Google Crawlers and the polyvalence of their algorithm change a lot of thing when it comes to SEO nowadays. Everyday there're new tips and tricks on how to adjust and optimize your site, so new tricks work, so old tricks don't; but there's one that always does and always will:

Writing high quality original content.

If I write high quality articles, I help Google provide good information to its user's base. I help Google; Google helps me, and list my articles well and quickly.

So what happened to my article submission? Am I creating duplicated content for Google?

* Google will always give more value to the first content it discovers, and this one is always from my website. * I also use bookmarks of my post on my site to reinforce my ownership. * The credential boxes in the article directories all have my website link there. The crawlers are clearly able to identify me as the owner too. * When I submit my articles to the directories, although I do submit to many directories (about 150) I'm always the first one to submit my articles, and I only do it once. * The layouts of the article directories are different than my website and thus, even though the article itself may be the same, the entire page where it is contained still is different.

In addition, as those articles are original written by me, I am the only one to submit them, and I do it only once. So I don't have problems or worried.

"SEO is not just about one article, but rather your entire site, and site network."

Clearly, at this point there's no need to mention that Google hates duplicate affiliate pages automatically generated or any page alike; but that's not what I'm doing here.

When we say Google doesn't like duplicated content, we usually refer to the mirror pages or in our case the widely popular PLR articles. Yes, using this kind of articles, you can post them or submit them to directories (PLR license) the problems with PLR are:

* You are not the first one to publish this content. I can pretty much guaranty that by the time to get your hands on a PLR article; already thousands of people already published it on internet. * The quality of the article is usually poor. It is known that PLR article don't provide real information but rather a certain amount of words with some keywords in it, nothing much more than that. Talk about quality content! * Even before Google, you are very likely to get banned from the article directories, because you'll be submitting an article that already thousands tried to submit before you. Talk about original content!

Finally by the time you finish that, you'll realize that before you in the search engines are:

* The original author of the article. * The article directories. * Thousands or hundreds of thousands of people who did that before you.

So you may still get listed, just look somewhere in result page 12,546,958 of your keyword...

How can you use the PLR articles then, what's the point of getting them?

* Never use a PLR article as is. * Use a content spinner to make it original, and then use your reconstructed article. * Rewrite the article yourself.

The truth is that it will take as much time or effort to spin the content to try to rewrite it than to actually write one yourself. In addition if you write your own articles (like I do) their quality will be much higher and you'll know for sure that it is original content.

At this point, it is also very easy for you to see and find out is somebody is using your content illegally or not.

If you want good lasting results in SEO, there's a golden rule:

"Do the right thing."

I hope this article helps you to understand more article marketing.

To Your Success!
