            Hiya Patrick,

            Whilst it might seem tempting to create 10,000 back links a day ( more back links means better SERPS right ? - Nope ) this will not help you rank up in fact it will do the opposite and is more likely to have you removed from Google's results all together.

            A long time ago you could get away with loads and loads of links however times have changed a lot  so maybe you saw that it was a good idea - it is no longer so.  The best way to get on-top of search results is to create good content and good content means good links. All though this take more time it will give you far better results.

            You can find many good tips & tricks around here as to how to create good content that may get you good links. Please don't use an automated submitter (as seen by the horror above!)

            Good luck!

              I am amazed that this is actually being considered.

              this way is dead. this way does not work. this way will get the opposite results.

              sit read the great info here about inbound marketing and remember there are no short cuts just hard work

                Do not do this to your website or your clients! Just Don't! You will ruin their sites!

                    If you're referring to submitting links to directories via auto submission.

                    That is a very bad idea. You do not want a software program deciding rather not your website is going into what could possibly be a very bad directory or website creating a bad link pointing to your website.

                    To answer your question for myself no I would never use an automatic link submitter. I believe you will hear the same thing for many people here.

                    I hope this helps,

                    Thomas

                      Blog articles on website vs submitting to article submission sites

                      I had some articles created for a client. The site is on WordPress. I'm wondering if it is best to add the articles to the blog page of the website or if it is better to submit the articles to ezine articles. Or can I submit the same article to both places? Is there a strategy that should be followed generally speaking when creating content for the blog vs article submission sites? The goal is to increase the ranking for target keywords. I realize that the answers could take a lot of different directions. But generally speaking I would like to know, If I have an article where is the best place to add it to achieve better rankings for target keywords? Thanks for the help.

                      Content - Onsite Blog vs Article Submission

                      Hey Folks, First post! I have a 4 year old site with reasonable authority (49) and lots of content. Easy first question. I plan to create lots more unique, useful and relevant content however I'm in a quandary as to whether to: A. Post the content on our sites blog or B. Submit the article to an article directory like ezine-articlesand backlink to my site. Is one better than the other? Thanks, Richard

                      Article submission web-sites and SEO

                      Does article submission web-sites have any impact to SEO in these days? There are a lot of good/not so good article submission databases, but does it really matter if you spend a time to write unique articles for them? I mean, is it a good way for link-building, or should I spend more time for other parts of SEO? There are also a special websites (for example SubmitYourArticle) which automate this process, does it make sense to use this services? Alternates? Lots of questions… Update Sorry, I found some good answers only after that I posted this question.

                      Is there any good blog submission site which does not have long waiting period before article is published and which allows followed link from blog? I have a list of such blog submission sites but they all either need weeks delay till it gets approved or never gets approved. So I would really appreciate If you can tell me some of such sites that you are aware of..
