Are there any reputable & affordable blog/article submission services nowadays?
-
Since the calamity of Penguin I know several article submission websites got a really bad wrap (many deservedly so). However if done carefully and legitimately I believe article promotion can still be a bona fide SEO link building tool.
I currently have a client that has hundreds of good blog posts. We have done some modest article promotions via local news websites. However I feel like this content could use more of a push.
Does anybody know of any reputable article/blog post promotion websites?
-
We are already doing FB syndication and publishing on our blog. I'm just trying to find more avenues to promote this content (safely). My client has 5 blog posts a week.
-
If this is good content why not host on your site and use the money from syndication to promote it via Facebook ads or another medium targeting valuable customers?
I'd stay clear of all article directories.

I have worked quite a few website that were under the attack of penguin and while working on the disavow tool, I tell you working with article submission websites is not at all a good idea. I mean if you have a good blog, you can always hire an outreach person to get more eyeballs and links for your content but republishing on article submission website is not something I personally would recommend.
Instead, I would recommend reaching out to the right kind of audience and get some links back to the content, you can reuse the content as in if you have text content at the moment you can create infographic out of it and use it on several different website with a link back to your original content, you can try guest posting, broken link building and the other countless ideas but article submission is not one of them.
Just a thought!

Link Building: Just Great Content, Blog Comments, and Guest Blog Posts?
I love SEOMoz. It has motivated me to dive way more into SEO. I know all the shoulds. But what fascinates me about SEO is that shoulds don't always match up to what works. I'm looking at Open Site Explorer, specifically my site. I see a lot of links I got naturally. By having awesome content. So is there any point in emailing people asking htem to add my link? Or do I spend my time writing awesome content, sharing it on social media, and hoping someone comes across it and shares it? I know blog commenting, when relevant, can bring me new visitors. I'm sure it helps SEO too. Maybe I just need to reach out and write guest blog posts for grabbing some links? Its just as Google wants it! OMG, how white hat. Is that it? or should I be even more active? I.E. emailing people and saying "hey, I have this awesome website, your readers would find it useful" sort of thing? Love to hear your opinion!

Article Marketing - manual vs automated or both
Hi Mozzers, Are services such as Article Samurai or Content Crooner worth the time/effort/money? On one hand, I cannot see them generating high quality links. But , they may be able to help on the quantity side of the link building equation. Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with automated article submission? Thanks, Peter

Demand Media & Link Building - OMG?
When the last linkscape update happened, I saw a new incoming link from USA Today Travel. SeoMoz rates the link as a 9.5 for DA and PA is 24. The article was written by someone from Demand Media. I tried contacting the author to work out a deal. Since I did not receive a response, I investigated Demand Media myself. They are a large group of content writers. I have finished building the site and now I'm in the link building process for highly competitive keywords. My 2 Questions: I can write articles all freakin day about what I do. I NEED to build links. Should I become a freelancer for Demand Media? I don't care about the pay because I am well paid. Is there anything to be concerned about with the Panda Update? All responses are appreciated. Please give me a thumbs up if you found this question interesting (because apparently some other post says nobody gives thumbs up)

Changing Category Names in Wordpress Blog & Inbound Links
I'm working on a wordpress blog, /www.athleticfoodie.com, and I'd like to change the names of the categories so that I include keywords. If I change the current category name of "Healthy Recipes" to "Recipes for Athletes" will I lose the inbound links associated with the category and/or posts? Is there a way to prevent this?

Free link on a Paid Link Blog
Hi there, I have been doing some outreaching, and managed to have a blog post accepted on a authority blog. They included links to my website, and I was very pleased with the placement. However, having browsed through the site, I was worried to see that they openly admit they allow 'reviews' of websites, with backlinks included, for $50 per review. I am worried I might be penalised without actually doing anything wrong. I did not pay for my link, but the link has been placed on a site which openly admits they accept payment for links. Should I be worried? Should I ask them to take it down? To date I have been told countless times by bloggers I am outreaching that if I pay $10, $50, $100 etc I can write a blog post. I have never accepted because of the risk of penalization. Now, unwittingly, I am linked to from a paid link site with a blog post that would look like I have paid for it because of the placement and style of back link. What do you think? Thanks,

Sponsored Directories & Blog Posts
In your opinion, is it worth paying for sponsored links in directories like http://www.dmegs.com, rather than the standard free links? I'm also curious about sponsored posts on Blogs (such as http://www.lovemydress.net/blog/sponsors/) where links are dofollowed, but clearly marked as sponsored. Will Google penalise me for purchasing these links? Are the links de-valued in any way?
