Look, greeneagle is right. Articles as an IBL stategy is dead-on-arrival.
You know, there is one full-proof way to avoid penalties incurred by Google (after all, are we ever really talking about any other search engine?) with respect to article duplication.
WRITE YOUR OWN STUFF and do not allow it to be copied! Everybody always wants to take the easy way out and benefit as if they had done something wonderful. If you duplicate an article, then you lose.
Unless there is an allowance in the algos that is able to identify the date of first publication of an article (Do we know this yet?), then you should not allow your work to be re-published for the sake of gaining an inbound link.
I foresee the day when dupe content will not be indexed and if someone truly wants to run a website, they will have to produce relevant high-quality content.
It comes down to this: Get up off your lazy butt and write your own RELEVANT copyrighted content! You will get referrals from sites in your field that reference and link to your article without having to outright copy it.
