What would you do with unqiue articles?
-
Hi,
If you had 10 articles which are unqiue and around 400 - 600 words what would you do with them?
I personally would more then likely put on squidoo, wordpress, blogger, weebly, hub pages etc and orientate the setup of these around my target keyword so the title tags, urls, h1's and content are around the term and then place anchor text links (2 of them) in the content of each one.
I would then social bookmark each on the top 10 sites.
Because it takes so long for me to write the content I sometimes think would it be best to put on the onsite blog.
What would others do with this content, is there something else I could do with it that would have a great impact on rankings?

I agree with EGOL. When people say that your best content belongs on your website, I always ask myself - why are you spending time creating content that isn't your best? Whether you intend to put an article on your website or use it for a guest post opportunity, you owe it to yourself to only put your name on the best quality work you can produce. You'll create way more opportunities for yourself down the road as you start to be seen as an expert in your niche.

What I would do with them depends upon their quality.
If they are best-on-the-web for their topic I would post on my own site and recruit links into them.
If they are less than best-on-the-web for their topic I would improve them.
If they are really bad I would offer them to a competitor.

agree on the spinning. That word really has a black hat rep, i prefer to say "re-write". I have in-house content writers and myself, so its a tactic will utilized but closely monitored.
Link wheels are like link building. Most services are bad and spammy, but every once in a while, you find some decent ones. I have used one called PostRunner before, and they turn out some decent article & blog posting service.

mmm I know of both these methods and they kind of lean into the dark arts if you know what I mean.
The first one I would not do purely because I would be worried I had not spun the article enough but its till a known method just not for me.
Second one is interesting because I have heard pros and cons on link wheels, I have to admit mostly bad but some good.

I would do a couple of things:
1. Spin the articles for your own on-site blog. Although many SEOs look down on article spinning, a good article spun by a good source (even yourself) can double the content. That way you have something to still put on your site's blog, ans have something to marketing with that is not duplicate content.
2. Find a good link wheel service that will take your article and put then up on relevant blogs and social sites. (similar to what gianpeach said)

Yeap that is a very good option as well, thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Article Backlinks To Product Pages
I am writing a number of 500 word articles and have read that Top 10 lists are becoming more and more popular on the web. So my thoughts are to write an article about the the 'Top 10 Mens Grooming Products 2013' for example. My questions is - do I post this article on my own website with the 10 links to the product pages using the product name as 'anchor text', or post the article to somewhere like Squidoo containing the links to my product pages. Which strategy has more SEO value?

Where/should I post my press release/articles on my own website?
I have started a long-term article marketing campaign and press release distribution. I will have about 4 articles and press releases in total every month. Although the press releases will not be self-promotional, sometimes they will be talking about a certain product that we unveil. The question is, due to the high quality of these press releases, should I put them on my website as well as publish them on third party websites? If so, because they target a specific service/product which we already have a dedicated page on our website, wouldn't that put Google in the position of choosing between the two pages? I was thinking to put them on my blog and link internally from there with the keywords that I target on those pages as anchor text. The same question for articles. Any suggestions?

What article directories (if any) are still worthing posting to?
While article marketing my not be at the top of the SEO strategy heap, it has, thus far, had a place small place at the table. In light of the Panda-Farmer-Anti-Demand-Media-Content update, I'm re-thinking article marketing altogether. Which, if any, general article directories are still worth adding content to in terms of links and eyeballs? Should these general article directories be avoided altogether?
