Is submitting articles to Ezine and other article website helpful to an SEO campaign?
-
I have been searching around to figure out if submitting articles to ezine, article base, etc. would produce quality incoming links for my website. Would ezine and article base provide quality incoming links?
Thanks in advance!

What seem to be some of the best article submission websites? You've listed ezine, article base, article dashboard, etc. but how many websites do you usually submit a single article too? I'm trying to do some research on article submission for SEO.

If I remember correctly they should give you a good idea about articles etc.

Hi
Personally I still use article submission for link building. Although it is now mixed with other link building techniques such as guest posting (which I suppose could technically be called article submission), I find that it works well.
That said, I think the days of sending an article out to hundreds of websites for hundreds of links are over. You need to choose the article sites more carefully these days and it will provide benefit.
I use Ezine and article base as well as Knol, Article dashboard. Isnare is also good if you want the article to appear on lots of sites, but be aware these may not be the best quality sites. nor in the same niche as yours.

SEO Question
If you Google - "San Diego DUI Lawyer" (a competitive term), this guys site comes up: sandiegoduiattorneys.weebly.com/san-diego-dui-lawyer.html Run his site in Opensite Explorer and you won't believe the results. This guy somehow has as much domain authority as Facebook, and maybe more than Moz. How is this possible? How is he getting all those links from random Weebly sites? I'm not saying I want to copy him, but I think it's highly problematic that somehow that site has been rigged to get all that link juice. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Fake SEO Site
What do you think of this site? This is the top, number ranking site in Halifax, UK. No authority, no backlinks and high keyword density considering the low amount of content. http://www.maknetic.co.uk/ Search term is SEO Halifax. How is it number 1? There's nothing in it and no user value at all!

Article Marketing and Penguin
Can sites like Ezine.com and Articlebase.com still be used to create good links? I have heard since Penguin, that article submission sites like those don't work anymore for link building. I have a client who can't put new content on his site and will rely on link building, what is the best way to go about it?? Thanks.

Has Anyone used Eyeflow SEO out of Pittsburgh
We are looking to have a third party do some white hat link building for us because we currently do not have the resources to do so in house and do not want to rush into a hire. We are looking at eyeflow because they are local to our area and we would have the opportunity to personally see how they do things. Has anyone had any experience with them, or have any suggestions for things to ask or be weary of? Thanks

How do you find out what (and when) new websites are linking to your site?
I may be missing the obvious here, but is there any way (a programme or site) of seeing what new links come into your site? Obviously as anyone who works in SEO, I like to see which links we have got with the work we put in contacting webmasters, etc. But is there a better way than just manually looking through ALL the links? Any help will appreciated.

Linking articles to each other
I've been using white-hat article marketing to post original content about my niche to credible article directories (yes, I realize many of them were recently devalued). My question is: Is it a good or bad idea to have future articles link to older articles, as a way to increase the chances of having the older articles indexed, or increasing the amount of link juice they pass to my site (since they point to my site)? I get 2 links per article and was thinking of using 1 to point to a prior (related) article, and the other to point to my site.
