Impact of Panda Algorithm Change on Articles Base.
-
I am a published author and researcher. All my articles are original content and high quality.
If I am looking for backlinks by submitting high quality original articles to Articles Base, how will the panda algorithm change affect me?
Should I be submitting articles somewhere else? If so, where? I greatly appreciate any suggestions you may have.

Submit a description of your article to sites such as reddit, stumbleupon, slashdot, digg... there you keep the article on your site and the visitors to reddit or these other sites rate its popularity.
Also, you can contact other websites or bloggers who already link out to great content in your topic area. If your content is really good then they will want to share your site with their visitors.

Thanks for your reply. So what do you suggest for a link building strategy in light of panda?

If we publish articles ( i don't mean low quality articles ), do they benefit the site more as compared to posting them to various article directories ? in both the cases, the link will go to the main site.

Yo! If this is true, do not give your articles away. They are far to valuable. Post them on your own site only.

Duplicate content on site->citations? How important is it to change it?
Hi there, I recently realised that the citations and directories i was building used the same content than the one on my website. I know this is not best practice. I will for sure make sure it doesn't happen in the future, but I am affraid of the ones i built in the past. How much do you think this would affect my rankings, and do you think this is a priority to go through my citations and directories to modify it?

Question concerning a freelance article link
Hey fellow Mozzers,
Link Building | | MountainMedia
I was performing a link audit for a client and came across a link linking to a deep page for our client with the link being anchored to a targeted keyword. It's a freelance article that is well written and deals with our client's industry but indirectly. The page has no PR but decent PA and DA. My question is, is there the possibility that Penguin would consider it spammy? The link is located in the author tagline at the bottom of the article. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks!0 -
Where to start Energy and investment versus more impact
I would like someone to help me decide where should I take resources to do my SEO and where should I start with? I include 2 graphs to depict my current position versus competitors. Its been now 2 years I market my site and I feel I am so far away from my competitor. I wonder what they do to get so much links. I just don't know where to head. I hired some Indian people who seem like they were very good technically but it was only words.. I pay them for a couple of month to find out what they were doing was not leaded towards quality and they were not doing half of what they promised. I am a small business and I don't have a lot of budget to start but it will grow as SEO proved to be good. I have 15 years in this business so I'm looking for long terms relationship and or very good advices. ILfWjjB.png vmGGZXd.png

News articles
Please take a look at this site in OSE: www.ehealthinsurance.com. If you sort by highest ranking domain with do-follow and outside pages only you can see that they have a lot of news sites, like cnn and msn money, with high domain authority to write a bunch of barely useful articles with many links in them. I was interested to see if anyone know how to get these sites to link to you as a resource? I cant seem to find a contact person nor can I find a way to submit the articles yourself. any help is appreciated thanks.

Weird change in amount of links
We just went from 50.000 external followed links to more than 150.000 ext followed links within a week. At the same time we went from just below 200.000 total links (internal/external) to more than 650.000 links and linking root domains dropped from around 750 to below 500. We don't do linkbuilding. We don't use a seo-agency. We do all stuff on our own. So why this major change and what impact will it have?

Tool based websites after Panda and Penguin
I have several sites that I classify as "tool" based sites. These type of sites includes anagram solvers for word games, ip address lookups and other various based tools. I like to specialize in these kind of sites because frankly I am not a blogger and hate to write. Before Panda I was doing fairly well, I had many users coming to my sites everyday. The Panda update "tips" that I read all over including on google sites seems to always refer to articles and how to deal with those. The only problem is that I am not an article based site. Yes I have content that describes my tools, but we are talking 1 to at most 2 paragraphs per page. I know Panda effected my ratings because I lost ranking with some big keywords. Since then I have been able to gain some ground, but I am having a hard time trying to figure out what exactly google wants from a site like me. The main path I am getting from Panda is concentrating on the users, and what will make their experience better. I focus on that whenever I make a change. I figure the easier I make it for them, the happier they are going to be. I am wondering what you guys think about some things I can look into creating or focusing on to enhance my site. I use social media heavily (FB, tweets, posterous, blog, RSS Feed) already, but is there something else I can look at that might help me that I am not seeing. I seem to be running out of ideas. Maybe add more content to my pages? Check link structure (its pretty basic as it is) add more article based blog posts? Just want some ideas, I will send my URL to anyone who wants to take a look and see what I may be missing. C

How do you feel about article directories?
Hello, I am a beginner in SEO and I have been reading a lot recently about article directories and article marketing. I have already started writing for article directories, ezinearticles particularly, but I still have mix feelings about it: does it really worth spending some time to write unique articles and to submit them to directories? How does Google feel about it? What do you think about small linkwheel strategies to give some weight to the content you create?
