I am a member of a marketing site and also have an e-course. Both very, very good products to learn internet marketing. The membership site has a great forum, the e-course has no forum. These 2 products are basically all I used and still use daily to learn internet marketing. Both recommend that you submit to one and you could probably get away with submitting to 2 article directory's and after that your PR and quality score will get slapped for duplicate content.
I have seen a lot of posts saying post to 10 or more directoies so what's up post to 1 or 2 or post to 10

If your content/article is also on your website....it's best to limit the number of directories you submit to for the reason(s) you stated. Maybe 1-5.
But.....it's not really that big a deal.
The benefit of article submission is really in the back links created to the websites you include in your author bio box. The more the better. Especially if the article is picked up and posted on sites with PR equal or greater than yours (preferably greater).
If the article is submitted to directories and the content is NOT on your website there's really no problem at all. Submit away.
Personally I do both...write an article for my blog(s) and also submit it to directories. Also write and submit an article that I don't also post to my blog. I've seen no real difference or affect on my site(s)PR or SE search visibilty.
In the long run it's best to have your articles (and associated links in the author bio box) show up in as many places as possible. The visibilty is priceless and any potential negative impact is far outweighed by the extra eyes seeing your link and your name (branding yourself).
God Bless,
Michael

Hello All!
I include the article in my blog and use an auto submitter to spray the article all over the directories.
I frequently have the top spot on Google for my articles about my bus opp and I believe it is due to this.

| This is a question for Tim. I have heard that the article directories don't like auto submissions. Is this true or false? I would love to use auto submission if it is not frowned upon.

Ok so if the article content is not on my site I can blast it to directories right?

Ronda,
Some sites such as ezinearticles.com will not accept auto submitted articles. I get more traffic from that directory than from 100 other directories combined.
My own personal "strategy" is to submit to only 3 directories. My articles get picked up often.
My goal is not the back links but the exposure.

Audrey,
Thanks for the info. I wonder why ezinearticles.com limits the number of articles you can submit? I don't have that problem with the other article directories.

Ronda,
Actually ezinearticles.com doesn't limit the number of articles you submit. They just don't allow automatic submissions (e.g. multi-submit software) to be used for your submissions. Many directories don't allow this either (at least the ones worth submiting to). It's better to pick a few good ones and submit by hand.
God Bless,
Michael

I agree. eZine articles has really boosted my traffic, but it takes a long time for them to approve your article.
Sometimes more than 10 days!
But when you submit more than 10 articles, your priority goes up and they approve you much faster.
Good luck guys!

Have been getting into article marketing, and seeing how effective it can be. Have been reading more and more about it on various blogs.
There seems to be some disagreement about the best approach, though. Some people say you should just submit an article to one directory, and that submitting to others is not worth it (and can even be a negative in the eyes of Google).
Others say it's worth submitting the same article to as many as possible, because you get more clicks on the bio box, and all those extra backlinks as well.
I must admit I'm a bit confused, and would appreciate people's thoughts on this. So, is it best to submit your article to one, or many directories?

I posted this in another thread but here is the link again.
http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=66359
The duplicate content penalty is only used in the "rare" case that Google feels a webmaster is being deceptive and trying to manipulate the search results by posting duplicate content across the same domain.
Submitting to hundreds of directories will not get you slapped by Google. You will simply only have one of the sites you submitted to rank for that article.

| I would recommend focusing on submitting to the top two initially, i.e. Ezine and GoArticles. However, I do not envisage a problem submitting to multiple sites.

I read a report the other day, written by a good authority on Google and article marketing. He maintained that Google's "duplicate content" penalty has been taken out of all context - it refers to duplicate content on your website, NOT in your article submissions. As he pointed out, how about all the news sites and social networking sites? They all are comprised of duplicate content and if the "Google Slap" were true, would have been de-indexed years ago.
Having said that, I honestly believe there is absolutely no advantage to be gained from mass submitting to hundreds of worthless article directories. Far better to work with a few top quality ones and hand submit to each.

Absolutely right. Identical articles can be submitted all over web in different directories and Google does not attach any penalty. By submitting all over you get back links.

You can always change the article a bit and re-submit to more directories, but that can be a pain. Like previously mentioned the goal is to create backlinks so the more submissions the more backlinks.
