First thing first, ezine articles is not good for seo. It's got no benefit for seo, hope you know that because you submitted this in the SEO section. It's a good technique for getting traffic though, but for effective article marketing you're going to need a lot of articles.

You also need to submit articles in different article directories, that's a pain because most of these article directories no longer approve duplicate content. That's why you see those successful blogs having hundreds of articles because that's the best way to do it these days, a couple of articles won't cut it.

I would never go the article marketing route in 2015, unless you're willing to submit at least 1 or 2 articles every day.

But good luck

Just because you've read everywhere online that it's an SEO technique it doesn't mean it's true. Ezine articles will give you a nofollow link in the resource box which has no benefit for SEO, if they were giving you a dofollow link then it would have some SEO benefit.

So if you're doing it for SEO then you're wasting your time.

I have 0 article with ezine, I think articles on that site are duplicated content and it can be harmful for our SEO site.

Will you publish your article on both your site and ezine site?

@nytshade they have a dofollow link in the resource box only the article body is nofollow

It seems to me you are using outdated info such as using ezine for seo purposes as well as the fact they have changed all links to be nofollow. You can even read about it here on the ezine blog -which states they are 100% nofollow.

That aside imagine standing with a big sign stating "Hello World - Look at me I am try to game the serps!!!"... As that is what you are doing when you use article directories for SEO purposes... These days you never see any article directories ranking on the SERPs... G has hit article directories big time with most of them being blasted out of the serps and the few that have survived are only doing so as they have adapted by making the entire site nofollow such as the case with ezine...

In sum article directories do not work!!! Its 2015 not 2008...

These days when creating backlinks you need to be real careful as to where you get them and also of your footprints which G can use to determine if you are attempting to manipulate the SERPs... For example:

- Do not use author sig profile as that indicates to G that backlinks from such an article are suspect as it is an tell tale sign of efforts to create links for seo purposes...
- Your backlink profile e.g. over use of the same anchor text (keyword) over and over again when creating links.

Recommend that you read up on G's penguin and panda algo...
