Which Article directory would you recommend? Hub Pages or Ezinearticles

[Melissa24]

Im new to article marketing and would like your opinion on which article directory would you recommend to submit to. I have read positive things about Hub pages and Ezinearticles. Does Hub pages get inexed faster by Googles? Also can you link back to your website within the article

Hello Melissa,

Yes, hubpages get indexed faster because its not an article directory.Its is social media site. Ezinearticles is a good website but one time article submission will not help. You must create 2-3 fresh articles every week and submit it to Ezinearticles.

The best strategy to get traffic from articles is to create a web page on Squidoo, Hubpage and Blogger. Add 2-3 articles to these websites each week and bookmark your article page to Social bookmarking sites like delicious, propellor, technorati, digg, socialmarker.

Make sure your article headline has the keywords you want to get search engine rankings for.

I have used similar strategy for getting top rankings for localized keywords.

Thank you
Sameer

In my experience both are fine.

Ezine tends to rank well on its own, but only allows links from the bottom of the article.

Hubpages allows links from within the article which some people regard as better quality.

I would use both, if I were you.

Thanks for the tips. I will probably start off with Hub since they allow links back to your site within the article.

If you use the exact same article for Hub as you do for your blog,will that be considered a dublicate?

Yes the article will be considered as duplicate by Google but there is a trick that most SEOs use. Change the title and in each paragraph change 10% of the content. You don't have to come up with new content you just have to use synonyms and related phrase.

It is easily possible to create 10 articles from 1 article by just changing the meaning of the words.

Is it ok to submit each post from your blog to Social Bookmarking? Would that be considered spam since it's for the same website im promoting.

Right now i have 6 post on my blog related to watching tv online. Can i submit each post seperately to Bookmarking sites?

I have submitted the main blog to Social Bookmarkings,but not each post individually.

Simply not the case in my experience.

Use separate logins for posting each posts to bookmarking sites. I use social poster which is way better than social marker.

Make sure to use different content and different titles for each book mark even though its pointing to same blog posts.
Social bookmarking sites like search engines like new content. Small changes to the title and description serves the purpose.

Note - Don't posts the same link to same bookmarking site more than 8-10 times even though the content is different they still can track your ip and will be considered as spam.
