I agree with the two responses you've received already. If you have good content, you'll want to put it on landing pages on your site. then seek to find (some will find you) sites that will link to your good content/landing pages. This is a much better way of doing things then seeking sites to submit your content to. Duplicate content issues and Panda really make this type of process outdated. I a firm believer in keeping your good content on site.

If by 'high-quality sites' you mean sites which have no purpose other than to let you submit articles for links - Google's Panda update greatly reduced the effectiveness of links from these sites.
A simple rule of thumb is: does the site I'm looking at have any relevance to human beings? Will they derive real value from the content on this site? Sites that let anyone submit anything without any real editorial discretion aren't valuable to users, and so they're not valuable to Google.
There are many kinds of good quality sites. One good source are online magazines and blogs in your sector. If you want to be accepted by a high-quality site, you've got to have high-quality content to justify that. The extra work involved in trying to get a good piece of writing accepted to a respected blog or website is worth it, as many an SEO can testify.
Best of luck

Hi Yoavm
I know I am not answering your question directly, but here is what I think you should, especially considering current tends in the search industry. If it is quality content, that you have produced, rather put it on your own website and try finding communities online that might be intrested in the content and maybe link to it. It terms of helping your websites in the SERP, that will be much more beneficial
Reason: Unless your article in the article website is so good and attracts links there (and if that is the case, rather put it onto your own website), you will get basically no value from the link....
If still need references, best I can give you of the top of my head is:

Article linking to my post kicks it from the search results.
Hi I have been trying to get a article to rank on the term: "help your child do well in school" in the Google UK. Now I was doing okay the article went from 43rd to 17th. Until I got mentioned in the huffington post. Then my result disappeared from the listings and the huffington appeared in 35th position. The article I'm trying to rank is: http://www.schoolguide.co.uk/blog/10-proven-ways-to-help-your-child-do-well-at-school The Huffington posts is: http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/emilyjane-clark/five-things-that-will-not_b_5693827.html It's really annoying because this is the type of link building I thought Google really wants. Does anyone know why this would happen and any suggestions of how to proceed?

Multiple links from a single web-site
When one good web-site (PR5) has a link to my web-site - it's great. But, if this site has a second link to my web-site from another page, is this also good? Or, let me ask in a different way, will my web-site get "double benefit" from that web-site?

Links from non existant sites?
Hi! I'm new at all this 🙂 I've taken a look at the backlink profile for one of my sites as it's seems its been hit by this last Penguin update. I'm finding links to my homepage from sites that no longer exist, like this one: http://mikimoto-pearls.org - does this hurt my backlink? I mean, I would figure it does since there's nothing there? If so, how do I get the link removed? Do I even need to? Disavow tool maybe? Thank you!

Blogging to add SEO value to site... recommendations
Hi Mozzers! A client has a high authority website in the travel industry, and needs any and all advantages to get ahead in very competitive keywords. The send out a newsletter bimonthly, but have no blog, so I recommended at the very least, they publish online their emailed newsletters to add informational and relevant content. The question is, for max SEO value, should they... create a blog as a subdomain or subfolder of their existing site? should they self host a blog with a separate domain? or should they simply use a blogger/wordpress.com free blog? Consider that just adding on a blog to their existing site isn't easy. It's some old CMS that's apparently a nightmare to deal with. Plus, branding a WP install to match the site isn't something they want to spend a lot of time on. Your insight is welcome and appreciated!

Soliciting articles and allowing author links?
We are trying to build up article content on our website, and are looking at soliciting fresh articles from authors on various subjects, and in turn give them an author link back to their website or blog in exchange for writing the article. Our website has massive traffic so this would be a good thing for the author. My question is this: If I put a couple of anchor text links into the article, having them pointed at various pages on my site, and then allow the author to link back to his site, will I lose the link love in the anchor text? Or does it depend on the number of anchor links I have? Like 3 to 1 type ratio.

Why does Open Site Explorer list Twitter and Facebook links for one of my sites and not others
One of my sites has the nofollow backlink listed for Facebook and Twitter while 2 other sites do not. All 3 sites have had accounts for over a year. Does the amount of interactivity with the social media profiles have to do with it? I know it is a nofollow link but I was just curious as those profiles might help with the brand signal etc.
