Question About Article Directories

[abrusnahan]

Hi guys

I have just recently started learning about using article directories as a marketing strategy. I have two articles that I just got published on Ezine and I was wondering if I can take those two articles and post them in other directories, or would that violate some rule?

Your best bet is to rewrite the articles so that they are about 50% different. Otherwise, your articles will be deemed duplicate content by Google's spiders. You don't get punished for having duplicate content; instead, it's simply removed from the index. That means whatever Google deems duplicate doesn't count for or against you when it comes to your search engine ranking.

Manual rewriting doesn't take a ton of time to do. So, please, stay away from article spinners. They will turn your articles into embarrassing mush.

you will not violate any rule. its your article and you can submit them anywhere you want. you will get better benefit if you can spin them before submitting to multiple directories but submitting it just like that is fine also. after all, its not only backlinks you get form article submission. you get some traffic also so more submission the better
