If you have a picture of the link profile you are trying to build (usually based on competitor analysis) then that helps guide you.
However my one guiding principal has always been to try not to be overly reliant on too few tactics. That probably means I've missed out on some easy wins over the years. However it also means that I have sites that have been sitting at the top of their industry results for over a decade, never leaving page 1.
Mix it up. Find something that works - then find something else. No reason why articles can't be part of that, but if you are producing that content anyway then why not put some aside for guest posting? If you are researching guest posting opportunities why not see what else those sites are looking for?

I don't believe it helps as much, no. Particularly as the lowest quality end.
I think that a small part of that is algo based, but really that a lot of the article directories have been devalued as a result of algo change - so have less juice to pass.
However it's still a way to get links, with anchors you control, from a diverse range of IPs. Hard to ignore that.

Hi mat,
Thanks mate - much apprciated..
Do you mean that article submission to help with SEO does not help that much anymore??

Hi Gareth,
There is a pretty comprehensive list here, that also shows follow/nofollow status of links, Google PR and alexa ranking: http://www.vretoolbar.com/articles/directories.php
I'd imagine you'll find something there!
In this post-panda world the benefit from article submissions is slightly harder to reap, but it's still there. I'm favouring dealing in smaller numbers on sites where you can build more of a profile. Plenty of those in that list.
Hope it helps.

Wordpress Old Articles date - Update or Not
Hey there! Been reading around and I believe that there isn't a perfect answer to this question, but I surely want to know your opinion. It's a fact that google likes new content but also updated content, so whats your position concerning the wordpress articles. Meaning, when I decide to update articles from 2011 on its content, should I also update the date? If I make a search and an article from 2011 will be shown, its unlikely that I will click on it... So that you can understand my point.

Can you use creative commons non-commercial images on a company blog?
Does anyone know if it is okay to use creative commons images on your company blog if they are under the Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.0 Generic license. Technically you are using it on a commercial site, but you are not directly making money from the image or selling it.

Potential effects of PLR articles
I'm sitting on several hundred PLR articles that, with a bit of editing, would fit well into on of my sites. This site otherwise produces new unique content every week, including videos, news and articles. These PLR articles are very popular, copyscape shows at least 30 other sites are using some or all of the pieces, but the articles themselves are the sort of information pieces that don't really get old or change over time. Never having gone for the direct use of PLR articles (have spun quite a few unique pieces in my time though), I'm wondering if there could be a negative effect to using them? We're not in Google News or anything so don't have to worry about that, just wondering if it would diminish the effect of my unique pieces at all?
