What are the best article sites to submit to?
-
Can you submit to more than one? or do they detect that the article has already been posted on another site? Which sites do you usually use for posting articles?
Thanks,

Thanks EGOL! another great reply from you
We decided to take your advice and just keep the content on our own site.
Cheers,

Thanks.
I am not sure about it, but is it true that DMCA complaint can be filed in USA only.
-
OK... I understand now. Thank you for repeating.
Yes, if someone removes articles from your site and copies them to another site the same problem will occur. However, if they steal from you and you are motivated to do something about it you can file DMCA actions against them or sue them for copyright infringement.
It is much more likely that your work will be copied if you offer it for syndication.

I think i didn't put it the right way.
**What if after posting articles to my own site, ** others copy them, post them to their site and even change the links.
In that case, what purpose it would serve, If i post articles to my own site or to article site. Because either way, someone can always copy them.

what if others copy my articles, post them to their site and even change the links.
There is a very good chance that they will rank higher than your site in the search results.

I am not going to disagree with you. I believe this is a sound advice. But what if others copy my articles, post them to their site and even change the links. Don't you think it will hurt my site.

I only post articles on my own site.
I believe that posting articles on other websites creates new competitors and fuels existing competitors.
If you give an article related to your business keywords to another website and that site is more powerful than yours they will outrank you in your own SERPs. Do that a few times and you really damaged your business.
When I have a great article I post it on my own site and submit a two sentence description of the content to places like slashdot and reddit. These sites refer visitors to you - and when they see that you have great content they will like, tweet, link and bookmark YOUR site instead of your competitor's.
Lots of people are going to disagree with me but that's OK. They are going after short term goals of getting links and ignoring the impact of new competitors and duplicate content. (don't believe them when they say if they post it on their own site first that google will know it belongs to them.... that is BS.... PURE BS)
If one of my competitors would give me a great article and I post it on my site tonight it is a pretty safe bet that I will be above them in their own SERPs taking their traffic and making their money by 8:00 AM tomorrow morning.

Some do detect that a similar article has been posted on another site even if the article has been "spun." This is the case with HubPages and others.
I like GoArticles.com for quick turnout. EzineArticles is always a popular one, too
I also use WordPress.com, Tumblr, and other blogging sites to post as well.
I'm not sure if this was part of your question or not, but I don't recommend posting the exact same article anywhere.

Whats the best way to get credit links from sites i've built?
Hello! I've build 100's of sites. They mostly have site wide footer links pointing back to me. I know this is now frowned on. But does anyone have a good solution to get maximum value back from these? A few have a footer link to a credit page that then links back. I get quite a lot of work back from them. So I don't really fancy removing them. Many thanks in advance.

301 redirect from a de-indexed site
Is link juice passed from a website that has been intentionally de-indexed by webmaster? The scenario is I had 2 websites with similar content. I decided to get rid of one by de-indexing. I also did a 301redirect from my de-indexed site. Not the whole domain but just the 2 URL's which I believe could pass on link juice. In this case how long the link juice would flow via 301 redirect?

Domain Authority and Fixing the site
Ok, so let's say I have a page on my site that says "Find a Personal Injury Lawyer Boston" Obviously that is very competitive and it is hard to get links for. However somewhere else on my site I have an article that says "10 mistakes to avoid when making a will." In theory, if I can get links to the "Making a Will Page", that increases the domain authority of my entire site, and boosts the likelihood of ranking for "Find a personal injury lawyer Boston." Is this correct? Let me know and thanks for your help!

Best Methods - Link Building
We are having more and more "new" customers coming to us who have been hit by various algorithms imposed by google. After we have run a site health check and corrected everything, we plan and come up with a link development plan which suits the clients needs. Much of out link development work is safe comprising of; 1. Guest Blog Posts - where we develop creative content with the customer to publish. 2. Industry blog posts - where bloggers write about i.e. "the company" 3. Social media - posting pictures, commenting on forums, etc 4. Paid directories with authority We don't develop links in any other way and it brings results in the long term. Is anyone out there doing something else? Link building can sometimes be like walking on a tight rope. Thanks and happy holidays Gary - Elite Group Marketing London

Seo & Real Estate Site?
I am a Realtor. I am also a web developer. I want to make a site about real estate and web development. Primarily how I use my unique skills with web to sell homes. A real estate website caps it's Page Rank very low. There are not a lot of good backlinks to get when compared to the web development industry. There are millions of blogs I participate in about web development/seo. There are a lot of blogs I participate in about real estate too; however, the real estate websites all have low page ranks. This is obviously because the seo/web development industries know how to build page rank, which makes it easier to accumulate it. It's difficult finding good outlets to get link power from in real estate. How confused would google be? Is there an acceptable strategy to making this a reality? Please point out all of the variables I am not seeing. Pros and Cons. I'm not an SEO pro. I would be going for the keyword Pensacola Real Estate. I would accumulate backlinks from the real estate industry and the web design industry. Help 🙂

Submitting to Directories
What do you look for when submitting to directories? I'm going through the Web Directories list that SEOMoz has put out and trying to decide which are the best. I'm just wondering if anybody has any suggestions as far as what to look for before submitting. I know PageRank is kind of an old metric but I do seem to see a correlation between PageRank and directory cost. If I submit to a directory category with a PR of 4 or 5 it seems like it will cost me anywhere between $50-$300.
