      I've downloaded Article Demon a while ago and have been trying to use it all though it hasn't been as easy to use as I would have liked.

      I was just wondering what you guys feel about Article Submitting software, if it's useful or if it's a waste of time?

      Regards

        Article spinning pollutes the Internet with poor quality content. Google's mission is to organize the world's information. Why would Google reward sites that make their job more difficult? I would focus instead on a tactic like guest posting by creating content that people willingly publish and adds value to readers.

          I would say it is a waste of time because of its unsustainable nature.

            Hey Joshua, Do you recommend Submiteaze over a program like Universal Business Listing for submitting sites to directories? https://www.ubl.org/index.aspx

            Thanks

              Hi to be honest article spinning use to bring great results yet recently we see more and more changes with Google cracking down on spinners. I mean Article Samurai is said to be a decent tool using the best spinner, I have tested it and it seems to be decent.

              Yet the best results will be driven from authority PR article sites which are indexed in Google news. It is a real method of trial and error you can submit your article to 100 low quality article sites or 10 very high article sites which will yield better results.

                How much backlinks do you get off of one submission? Is it easy to use or a headache? I've found Article Demon a big headache to use and I don't want to repeat that again, to the point that I'm thinking of just submitting articles manually.

                PS. Can you link to your site so I can check your backlinks and see the type of traction you get?

                  I use <cite>www.submiteaze.com and it is brilliant.</cite>

                  I highly recommend giving it a go, it will save a heap of time.

                    Content - Onsite Blog vs Article Submission

                    Hey Folks, First post! I have a 4 year old site with reasonable authority (49) and lots of content. Easy first question. I plan to create lots more unique, useful and relevant content however I'm in a quandary as to whether to: A. Post the content on our sites blog or B. Submit the article to an article directory like ezine-articlesand backlink to my site. Is one better than the other? Thanks, Richard

                    Is it safe to submit the same article to multiple sites?

                    Hello, I am just getting into SEO and I need some guidance with article submissions. I have read in many different places that submitting articles to other sites  (EzineArticles, Digg, Etc.) is a great way to build links back to your site. My question is, can I submit articles already posted on our site to these sites or is it best to write new articles?

                    I read an SEO article that recommended getting backlinks from social bookmarking sites like diggo.com. Does anyone have any thoughts on the usefulness of these types of links?
