Article Marketing

[melchapman]

Has anyone heard of Article Marketer? If so... any feedback would be appreciated.

If you have other companies that you might suggest... I am open to listen.

Thanks,
Mel

Went to their site and was quite impressed with the whole proposition.

Here is some of my own experience about article marketing:

I have written some 50 articles over the last 2 years and posted them on ezinearticles.com, probably the most prominent article marketing site.

Overall articles have been viewed some 50 k times and been published by other people around 1 k times. So yes, it will generate a lot of back links.

However, many publishers will simply grab your content and publish it on some of the most gruesome websites around (not sure if that enhances reputation...) and leave out the due back links. I have seen some people running my articles through an automatic translator into German and Spanish, which produced nothing but waffle.

PR of the sites I promoted did not go up but down, probably due to the poor quality of the sites publishing your content.

I have always been fascinated with the idea of article marketing and will continue to publish, even though it has not borne the fruits I had hoped for so far.

I will try articlemarketer.com one of these days myself, but equally would be very curious about any feedback on this service.

Thanks.

Thanks.

I've published many articles myself too...and generated many link-backs. But even after years of this, Google doesn't count ANY of them. I have to wonder if it's even worth the effort. But like you, I'll continue with the campaign until someone can show that it's actually bad for a site.

Well, Google counts some of my back links but the PR for all the sites I have been doing article marketing for has consistently gone down. But, then, who says that PR really is that important except link exchange freaks.

But I guess if you really publish heaps there of articles there will be so much clutter all over the web pointing to your site and producing your name in the SE that it somehow does help your business - "critical (clutter) mass" - That is why articlemarketer.com seems interesting, just I will not use my real name when I try it....

Cheers.

This comes up a lot between writers and content developers. I hear people whining about it, and I never quite understand why. If someone wants second rate trash, let them have it. When you have the source, and can continue to produce top-notch content, google will know. All the people copying is just good testimony to your/your company's ability. Heack, I've always used it as a marketing strategy--

See--Look how powerful my content is! People are copying it everywhere, and they still have yet to change it for the better. In every single case that someone makes just enough changes to save them from copyright infringement, they change it for the worse...my content still rocks, and theirs sucks!
