Ezine Articles

[onlinemediadirect]

How much do other people rate Ezines as a provider of articles and incoming links.  What are peoples experiences.

It has to be one of the most strict article sites but does this make it the best ?

Using Ezine as a source of content will load up your domain with duplicate content.  These pages will not pull traffic unless your domain is stronger than any other domain that has the same content.

If you submit content to Ezine that will put the content on a lot of other domains, most of them will remove your links and the rest probably have links that are almost worthless.

I think that Ezine is a good recommend to your competitor.

Agree. There are only a handful of the "old time" article directories that still rank. But this may be a  historical artifact that doesn't apply to new content. At least that's what a handful of my experiments to date suggest.

Interesting one I added this to my blog at http://blog.onlinemediadirect.co.uk but have had low levels of comments. Noticed you do magento

If I may go off topic for a moment I wanted to see if its possible to get a feed from magento to integrate withing ebay and amazon ? Plus thinking of an easy upload to adwords.

It has something like 7000 products hence the requirement.

I concur! Ezinearticles has a ton of Adsense crap on it anyway. I have a couple links coming from them, but it's not something I increased rankings for. Instead of using that time on article writing, I integrated ADDTHIS and Facebook Comments into my site.  More shares and likes, more interest.

I would currently rate Ezinearticles extremely low on the authority of their content and links according to Google.  This is simply based on the Panda update backlash that devalued ezine and similar article databases.

While it was extremely popular in the past, the popularity and spamming of content/links is what also led to the demise and devaluing.

You time and effort would be better spent elsewhere.
