Article Spinners: Going For Quality vs Quantity

tbs-the best spinner-article marketingA major focal point of my work from home business is my keyword focused quality article marketing with a strong attention to my backlinking.

All the work I have been putting into quality has paid off in 2011 and helped me to double my earnings.

The thing is I don’t limit myself to a single niche. I have way too many interests for that but that means a whole lot more work is required. So there came a time I could no longer write all the content my sites need on a regular basis.

Guest Bloggers: The first thing I did when I realized I was in trouble was to look for guest bloggers and that has worked really well, just not for all my niches, so I still had to find another way to get good content.

Article Directories: I thought about using articles from article directories like EzineArticles.com but the content wasn’t unique to my site, so I moved on.

Article Networks: My next thought had me checking out article networks. I understood that article networks allowed spintax code to be used so that more unique articles could be published by authors. Here is a short list of the networks I joined:

Free Doesn’t Always Mean There’s No Cost

I couldn’t believe some of the poor quality articles I was seeing. I seems that a lot of authors have become experts at writing crap articles. I was spending a lot of time looking but sadly was rejecting more than 90% of all the articles.

What the heck was up with that? These articles I was rejecting had two problems. First the articles had no keyword focus and secondly a lot of them had non relevant links. These are two excellent reasons for rejecting articles, although very time consuming and frustrating.

Saving Time By Reading Only The Titles

It didn’t take long before I caught on to the fact that most of the poor quality articles were a result of auto spinning. I started looking at the titles of the articles and rejecting then based on whether they were well written and keyworded, otherwise I rejected them.

This one step started saving me a tremendous amount of time and it makes sense to me. If the title has been spun to death you can be sure the article has as well. It’s just as simple as authors going for quantity over quality.

What Is Article Marketing?

Article marketing involves the use of niche focused words known as keywords to write articles that get indexed by search engines resulting in traffic being sent to their pages. – J. P. M.

Using Article Spinners To Kill Articles

It’s sad to see such potential killed by a little button that say something like, Auto Replace Synonyms or Auto Spin Content.

I dedicate most of Monday thru Friday to article marketing because it works so well. I use The Best Spinner as my article spinner to assist in the rewriting process. It can help me create many unique articles from just one and I can do it in record time.

The fact these article networks use spintax means I can use The Best Spinner to pump out hundreds and hundreds of articles. The thing is it’s up to me to maintain the uniqueness as well as the quality of the article and this is exactly where so many fail at article marketing.

For me personally it all starts with…

First Is Niche Research: I need to know which niches I can expect to rank in enough to make some money. Then, once I have one, it’s on to finding the best keywords to base my articles on.

When it’s time to write articles for that niche I use The Best Spinner. Using TBS I can specify words and phrases that I don’t want spun while spinning my article. This is key to my success with article marketing and where so many marketers go wrong and end up losing the keyword focus that makes it work in the first place.,

Here’s An Example: You use the following keyword phrase in your article title: Work From Home Ideas, you continue with your article and then spin the article. Without protecting key phrases you could end up with a terrible title like, Labor From House Thoughts.

Can you see how quickly a quality article could turn into mush?

When I am presented with an article that has been spun to death like the title has I can see that the author was likely more interested in quantity over quality and I hit the reject button.

What Do My Stats Say

I have checked my stats on the article networks I belong to and see that I reject more than 90% of all articles but I also publish articles and can see that I have more than 90% of my articles accepted.

I’m Not Destroying My PageRank Using Crap Articles

I work hard and earn the page rank 3 and 4 my sites have. I am not about to start accepting below average articles just for the sake of more content. But it takes so much time scanning and rejecting so many articles.

Well I have figured out something that has saved me hours a day. I no longer look at the body of each and every article. The first thing I check is the title. If it’s not well written and keyworded I don’t want it and it gets rejected.

Instead of wasting tow minutes on an article I take just two seconds to see if I am going to look at the rest of the article.

Using the example from above you can see how quickly a choice can be made. Look at both titles and tell me if you would take the time to look at both articles.

  • Work From Home Ideas
  • Labor From Residence Notions

Personally I would look at the first title’s article body but would instantly click reject on the second.

So for me the KEY to my article marketing success is proper KEYwords usage in the title, article body and text links. Once that’s spot on I then put The Best Spinner to work rewriting each article without losing any keyword focus or density.

Link Building: Is It Quality Or Quantity That Works

building backlinksI work from home to make my living and I do it online, mostly with article marketing strategies.

Personally when it comes to link building I always prefer keyworded, high quality one way links. I use a variety of methods to get my backlinks. Here are some of the ways I get backlinks that increase my page rank.

You will find plenty of great ebooks on Clickbank, just go to the Clickbank Marketplace and do a search for how to do link building and you will find lot to look at.

Article Marketing To Article Directories

Article marketing is one of my favourite methods for gaining quality backlinks. I pick two or three keywords to work into the article and I use the main keyword for the article as link text for my backlink. The linking for some of the article directories I publish to will only allow a link, maybe two in the bio or resource box. I rewrite each article for every article directory I publish to so that all my content and links are accepted and unique.

Note I always publish to EzineArticles.com first as they are the strictest. I also only publish to directories that have at least a PR4 or better.

Guest Blogging On Niche Related Blogs

I haven’t done much guest blogging myself but I do have a lot of guest bloggers writing content for my blogs. It’s a great way to get quality content that’s unique while I write articles to publish elsewhere for one way backlinks. Guest blogging is the perfect way to have keyworded content and links pointing to your important pages, helping to build page rank and authority in the eyes of the major search engines.

Writing For Article Networks

Besides publishing to article directories like EzineArticles.com I like to write articles and then create spin code using The Best Spinner. The once I have it all right and keyworded for the best results I publish them to article networks like SEOLinkVine.com and ArticleMarketingAutomation.com so that their members can pickup my articles and publish them on their niche related blog.

When you start writing quality keyworded content and publish them on the top article networks you will start to see your backlinks increasing which can quickly increase your page rank and help you gain top positioning in search engines. Give it time though.

Start Commenting on Popular Blogs In Your Niche

I like commenting so much that I use Bloglines.com to keep track of that the blogs in all the niches I work to make money in.

Blog commenting can be powerful, if you comment often and early. I like the blog owner as well as their blog readers to see my comments. If my comment is down at #10 or great it’s not likely to get much attention. Make it good and the #1 comment and you can get the attention of the blog owner which can be a bonus but you can also get a lot of traffic from those blog visitors that read your comment.

Be sure you read the post and add value to the post with your comment. It gets a whole lot more attention and you will get more visits if you add value and not just a ‘great post’ comment, which I just delete on my blogs.

So put aside a bit of time from your busy day to comment on relevant and quality blogs, it pays off in the long run.

Join And Take Part In Relevant Forums

Forums are great for backlinking and getting traffic to your sites, however there are a few things to keep in mind.

  1. Don’t waste your entire day on forums.
  2. Plan your forum time.
  3. Write forum posts that are helpful and informative
  4. Never spam a forum or all your efforts go down the drain.

Now you have a few good methods for gaining those all important backlinks. A couple more things I would like to add before ending this articles is the importance of quality.

  • Don’t lose focus of your keywords
  • Proof read and spell check everything, twice
  • Always be unique with your content

Remember I love getting quality and relevant guest posts, so think about it.

How To Increase URL Backlinks Through Article Marketing

Most online marketers have clued into the fact that it’s pageviews that are required to make a living online or even extra work from home income from their efforts. That’s a big step on one’s online success because knowing is half the battle.

To increase your pageviews you can do a couple of things. One is to increase your traffic, which is always good but you can also produce content that keeps your visitors on your site longer going from one great article to the next.

Doing both can shoot your income through the roof.

How Does One Increase Traffic Efficiently

Well more compelling articles on a regular basis is a good start however to increase pageviews to existing pages you will need to have many links pointing to them.

The backlinks you have pointing to your web pages can be from articles already on your site plus links from other sites as well.

Backlinking Through Article Marketing Directories

There are many many article directories you can publish your keyworded articles to in which you can leave a link to your web page(s). Some of these directories will only allowyou one link while others will allow two or three.

The key is to write articles that fit the article or web page you want to link to. This is because relevancy goes a long way when backlinking.

Plus with article directories you can get lots of your articles picked up by other for their site but watch it because people like myself will reject articles with links that are not relevant to the topic.

Backling Using Article Networks

I personally love using article networks like SEO LinkVine, My Article Network and Article Marketing Automation where I can publish my article spin code and get more unique articles published with my backlinks in them.

Web 2.0 Site That Allow Article Marketing

In the past month I have been using Rank Builder to increase my backlinking efforts by a huge factor to increase the page rank for my pages and sites. It has completely blown me away with how much I can do that automates the process while still staying completely unique.

I purchased a copy of The Best Spinner to help me spin unique articles and save time writing them all by hand like I used to do.

Article Marketing Success Needs Targeted Readers

articlemarketingtipsArticle marketing is just another way of saying content creation and distribution. It’s a great way to make money while you work from the comfort of your own home.

I am sure you’ve heard content is king and it’s true if you have done a couple of things.

First you should have already done your keyword research to know your best keywords. Secondly, you need to write helpful or informative content your readers will want to read. Finally you need something to point your readers to. An affiliate link or a landing page you can presell your readers on before they move on to your affiliate page.

Staying focused on your niche as well as the topic at hand so you don’t lose your reader.

Note: Having your own website is an option and one I use but it’s not actually a requirement for financial success. You just need to have something to sell and a place to point your readers, called an affiliate site, using an affiliate link.

Publish To Article Directories

Having your own website is NOT a requirement for successful article marketing. There are plenty of article directories available to publish your articles to.

The key to success with article marketing using article directories is to find directories that accept articles with affiliate links in them. All you need is one affiliate link per article but some directories won’t accept affiliate links in the articles you publish.

Write Guest Blog Posts

Using your favourite search engine look for blogs that accept guest posting. Of course you want to find the bloggers in your niche as you don’t want to try publishing a non relevant article. That would just lead to your article not being published or accepted.

The Free Traffic System

Personally I have a number of websites but I like to write articles using The Best Spinner to create spin code and then publish the articles, code and all, to The Free Traffic System.

Your article will be presented to about 30 bloggers based on the categories you select while publishing and the affiliate link you leave behind points people to an affiliate page where you have the opportunity to make money.

Get Your Own Guest Bloggers

If you choose to have your own blog you can get others to publish their articles on your blog. This is one of the methods I use to get more unique content, that’s niche related of course, for my websites.

It works great because the authors get a one way link back to the webpage of their choosing for their work and that leads to more visitors and possibly increased page ranks for their webpages.
