What are the best article sites to submit to?
-
Can you submit to more than one? or do they detect that the article has already been posted on another site? Which sites do you usually use for posting articles?
Thanks,

Thanks.
I am not sure about it, but is it true that DMCA complaint can be filed in USA only.
-
OK... I understand now. Thank you for repeating.
Yes, if someone removes articles from your site and copies them to another site the same problem will occur. However, if they steal from you and you are motivated to do something about it you can file DMCA actions against them or sue them for copyright infringement.
It is much more likely that your work will be copied if you offer it for syndication.

I think i didn't put it the right way.
**What if after posting articles to my own site, ** others copy them, post them to their site and even change the links.
In that case, what purpose it would serve, If i post articles to my own site or to article site. Because either way, someone can always copy them.

what if others copy my articles, post them to their site and even change the links.
There is a very good chance that they will rank higher than your site in the search results.

I am not going to disagree with you. I believe this is a sound advice. But what if others copy my articles, post them to their site and even change the links. Don't you think it will hurt my site.

I only post articles on my own site.
I believe that posting articles on other websites creates new competitors and fuels existing competitors.
If you give an article related to your business keywords to another website and that site is more powerful than yours they will outrank you in your own SERPs. Do that a few times and you really damaged your business.
When I have a great article I post it on my own site and submit a two sentence description of the content to places like slashdot and reddit. These sites refer visitors to you - and when they see that you have great content they will like, tweet, link and bookmark YOUR site instead of your competitor's.
Lots of people are going to disagree with me but that's OK. They are going after short term goals of getting links and ignoring the impact of new competitors and duplicate content. (don't believe them when they say if they post it on their own site first that google will know it belongs to them.... that is BS.... PURE BS)
If one of my competitors would give me a great article and I post it on my site tonight it is a pretty safe bet that I will be above them in their own SERPs taking their traffic and making their money by 8:00 AM tomorrow morning.

Some do detect that a similar article has been posted on another site even if the article has been "spun." This is the case with HubPages and others.
I like GoArticles.com for quick turnout. EzineArticles is always a popular one, too
I also use WordPress.com, Tumblr, and other blogging sites to post as well.
I'm not sure if this was part of your question or not, but I don't recommend posting the exact same article anywhere.

301 redirect from a de-indexed site
Is link juice passed from a website that has been intentionally de-indexed by webmaster? The scenario is I had 2 websites with similar content. I decided to get rid of one by de-indexing. I also did a 301redirect from my de-indexed site. Not the whole domain but just the 2 URL's which I believe could pass on link juice. In this case how long the link juice would flow via 301 redirect?

What do you when the wrong site links to you?
In doing research of our backlink profile, I've found a couple dozen of links from off-topic websites linking to us. You see, our domain is Voices.com and tends to scoop up links from unrelated sites that are clearly trying to link to another site such as evp-voices.com or areavoices.com or dozens of others. What would you do? Ask the webmaster to remove them because they are completely unrelated? Or would you keep them if you believed they aren't causing any harm?

How do you optimize your site for surrounding areas?
For example, If I am optimizing a site for a dentist in West Palm Beach, Florida (the primary city) how do I ensure I am also optimizing my site for the smaller cities/towns that are part of West Palm Beach like Royal Palm Beach, Wellington etc.? If I am using "West Palm Beach" in my site and page titles etc., how do I also rank for the smaller cities? What are the basic tactics in terms of on-site and linking? For instance, lets say I offer Botox in West Palm Beach...how do I also optimize for Wellington, Royal Palm Beach and other local cities? Do I really have to create unique Botox content for each city? Thanks!

Advice for brand new site
Dear All I have been an SEO for several years now, and have just laucnhed a new site www.householdsaver.co.uk its in its early stages as I expect to add a community option where people post deals and offers they have found, share them with friends etc My question is really are all the old seo practices still worth doing? Things like directory sites, blog comments, articles sites, social bookmarking etc.... (I have already built up twitter users on the account before the site went live) With Moz's trust factor is it best to go for highrank trust sites first or... I guess you could say that I am suffering from what do I do first and is it all still worth doing and what are the early pit falls to think about..? ie too many links too soon and from to high or to low trusted sites? Any comments from anyone who have put a new site live in the past couple of years would be appricated. Thanks James

What is best way to evaluate external links to my site?
What is the best way to evaluate external links coming in to my site? I have been working on trying to build links by commenting on blogs/forums and adding to directories, etc. I've run link reports through Open Site Explorer and Yahoo and they never seem to show the same links coming in. For example, i run link eport on Open Site Explorer and it will show links coming into my site that Yahoo doesn't show, and vice versa. I guess I'm trying to figure best way to monitor each week new links coming into my site to determine if my efforts are fruitful. Also, is there a certain period of time that should pass from time I put my link on another site (ie, a blog) until it will show up in OPen Site Explorer? Thanks! Oh, and I use the NoDoFollow Add-on for Firefox to only comment on those sites that do follow. Not sure if that's really effective or not.
