EGOL, what is a signpost?
I know I am supposed to know everything, but that is why I have you!
Keep on own site... but share....signpost...?

This is what we do. Keep the content on your own site... but share where only a signpost pointing to your site will be present. This earns links, brings traffic, and reduces duplicate content risk.

I am doing that method but didn't see effect. Without good keyword position no traffic will come in my blog.

Huey,
As you have unique content, Why can't you create blog on your own website. And publish content on own blog instead of putting them in article and web 2.0 sites. After posting content in blog share them on social media. By that you will get direct traffic on your website.

You answered my question and your answer was posted by DiscoverAfricaGroup. This is a very low value way to go.

Creating links on different websites is the key... Submitting multiple articles to the same websites/Directories wont have as much of an effect as if you submitted to other websites.
I have also heard that links in article directories and web 2.0 sites are devalued by Google as they are easily "created" and not "Earned"
If i was you, I would search Google for websites looking for guest authors and submit your article to those websites.
Search this in Google and you should get a few websites to submit your articles too.
"keyword"+“Guest bloggers wanted” OR “guest blogger wanted”

yes this one - Ezine article better than Hubpages in terms of having an affect on SERPs?
I am actually posted one article on Ezine and Hubpage with the normal anchor/keyword text to boost my keyword position.. i see the effect, last time my KW position is 147 and now it is 25-26.. but don't know should i continue doing the same method or should i also do something else (please advice). I am doing everything manually not by any software.

Huey,
I think you are giving us a bit of a vacuum here. Can you tell us a bit more in terms of what you are wanting to affect in the SERPs? Or are you simply asking is an Ezine article better than Hubpages in terms of having an affect on SERPs?
Thanks,

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!

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.

Mass article submission
I'm quite new to SEO and initially I was learning from the wrong sources who suggested to submit content to as many article directories as possible and the same with website submission to other web directories. Most of the directories they had suggested were low quality, with the only quality ones being made for a niche, which was not my websites niche. They also recommended other bad on-page techniques such as spinning/scraping other websites content - not that I followed this method anyway. Anyway, after educating myself more on how SEO and the search engines themselves work, I know that this is not the best practice. My website initially benefited from having all of these links but now has dropped off ranking for the keyword entirely. It still ranks on the front page for other long tail keywords and the actual domain name, but not the primary keywords. I'm worried that Google has in some way blacklisted my website for the main keywords, which were also used in all of these articles, but not the others if that's possible. At the moment I'm restructuring my website by increasing the amount of content and especially the quality of content so that I can submit it to better directories such as DMOZ and other niche specific directories and websites. Will Google look past the links from the low quality directories if my website is included in DMOZ and other high quality, niche specific directories? Is it better to just abandon my current website and start fresh? Thanks for any answers and/or advice in advance.

Where to find specialized directories
I'm looking to find some specialized directories, as I assist with a laboratory robotics group. These can be paid (actually preferred for now) or free. I know that seomoz has a helpful list of directories, but I was wondering if anyone else knows of a good place to find specialized directories like this. Thanks.
