I thought I would just post a brief follow up on my previous experiment with promotion through article distribution. For a full explanation of what I tried with this visit this blog page. However as a brief overview, I basically wrote an extended version of an article I had written here and published it to a group of article directories through a service called iSnare.
The article was entitled “Beware The Impact Of Using 301 Redirects” and although it took about a week it was eventually submitted and distributed through iSnare. The article had links to this blog in the author bio section. At the time of writing this, if I do a search on google for my article I finds 825 references too it. It’s very hard to say if this article has brought me any real traffic, but I’m sure all of those links must be a positive thing for this blog.
Even though I am not sure of the results of the experiment I will probably try it again, it was a relatively painless exercise once I had found a suitable article to use. Also even if the links don’t mean a lot to google, it is at least getting my name out there. But I would strongly recommend that if you try it, make sure it is a unique article that will only be used for this purpose. The last thing you want is to have your own sites content flagged up as duplicate content in google.
