The challenge is building a 27 hour day. :) I also resonate with your point #9 - the site must be of great value to the viewer. Truer words were never written. Best wishes, Barbara Happy Monday,

Translating my content into articles is something I really need to consider. The challenge is building a 27 hour day. :)

I also resonate with your point #9 – the site must be of great value to the viewer. Truer words were never written.

I hope you all try out at least two or three of these techniques out of the total ten I have researched and actually implemented in my own site. As far as Andy's mention of losing search ranking status when submitting my articles to them for back links to my own site, I have done some research into the negative aspect of that as well. I have noted that Google's ranking for me has not gone down significantly since I have sent my articles out to various sites, but I have cut down on the amount of sites I have sent my articles to. I only send them out to around five different sites now that directly pertain to web writing and I have gotten a lot more quality visitors to my site as a result. It's always good to maintain quality over quantity when you are dealing with techniques that will draw visitors to your site, and you do need to be constantly aware of content filters and other negative elements when they could have a detrimental impact on your overall publicity campaign for your website or blog.

But, the one "Turn your blogs into articles that you then submit to directories." is I liked the most of the above mentioned tips. As, I have never thought about it before.

If you are creating a blog which has original content, and you want that blog, including its content to get you a decent search engine ranking, then resubmitting your articles to article directories is the wrong thing to be doing We have all heard of the duplicate content filters that the big three now employ, so submitting your content to other sites, would set off the content filters and your content will be put into the supplemental search engine results. Those results are not shown to the public unless you go looking for them, or the search engine cannot find any other results for the keyword the user is searching with. Yeah submitting to article directories would send you traffic in itself, and would almost certainly send you some back links as a result of the articles being republished everywhere, but the downside is you loose your search rankings. is that a compromise you can afford to take? I know for me, it certainly isn't. Excuse the long post, lol, but apart from that one point, i really enjoyed the article (and have bookmarked & stumbled it) An interesting article Rob, but i find one problem with your last tip.

I hate writing for tomorrow. I love writing for eternity. Not that news analysis is bad - but news analysis with perspective can be much more powerful than just a run-down of the facts.
