My Article Network vs. Unique Article Wizard
In this post I’m going to compare two services that are somewhat similar to each other, yet worlds apart.
My Article Network is an offering from the Callen brothers that is pretty impressive for a lot of reasons and they are as follows:
- Their blog network is at least 10,000 blogs strong and this is the resource you’re tapping into, the potential to get backlinks from 10,000 places
- Their service has a very reasonable monthly fee of #47.00/month
- There is an area inside your login for creating outsourcer logins so you can create a seperate login for writers or other people you might have working for you, and this allows you to totally outsource the usage of this service.
- You get links (lots of them) and you can limit the number of links you get per article submission which is a good thing.
Now let’s compare this to what Unique Article Wizard has for benefits and features.
UAW offers time-released submissions which allows you to build up backlinks in a more measured and natural manner, something that is very important if you want to do link building properly.
UAW will generate thousands of backlinks via your article submissions and to prove this, they periodically send you updates on how many credited links you’ve generated to all your sites.
With Unique Article Wizard there is also the potential for viral marketing and syndication of your articles. Part of the syndication of your articles is dependent upon the thousands of site owners receiving unique content via the Unique Article Wizard plugin. One of the settings for this plugin is to publish the link for where your main article is stored. It is kind of like a repository for articles that UAW members has submitted and all the articles are stored here in case someone reads one of your articles somewhere on the web and wants to grab a copy of it and publish it again, themselves. This leads to a viral marketing effect for your articles.
There’s really only 2 things that make Unique Article Wizard a better article marketing submission and syndication service, and those are:
The article spinner- UAW’s article spinner is easy to use once you become acclimated to their way of writing articles. My Article Network’s article spinner has the ability to spin your article to whatever PERCENT % uniqueness you want it to be prior to sending out, but it is a very laborious task yet well worth the effort.
UAW’s spinner is easier to use and saves you a lot of time
Article submission rate control - With UAW you can control how quickly your submissions are going out unlike My Article Network which just sends your article out there to their network and you could get all your articles published in a week, and that’s not a good thing since too many links generated in too short of a time leads to overlinking and possible sand-boxing by the search engines.
UAW gets the nod here as well since you can limit your submissions to 10/day and this leads to a more gradual and more effective link building campaign.
What article directories should you submit your articles to?
What are the major article directories you should manually publish articles to?
I get this question a lot of times so I figured I’d address this via a blog post…
There are 3-4 major article directories that are worth the manual effort to submit articles to…
- EzineArticles.com
- FindArticles.com
- Articlesbase.com
- Goarticles.com
Generally speaking EzineArticles, A.K.A. EZA is still the king when it comes to article directories whose published articles get the best rankings.
But you don’t need me to do that for you…
Prove it to yourself by typing in your niche keyword-based search queries and see which article directories show up before the others on a consistent basis.
In most cases EZA will be the first article directory to appear, but there are some article directories that do better than others for certain niches.
But why would anyone waste their time with manual article submissions when Unique Article Wizard sends unique versions of your articles to thousands of directories and websites?
#1- Because directories like EZA have strict quality control, only accept unique content, and your published articles will rank well if you do things correctly.
#2 – Because Unique Article Wizard doesn’t submit your articles to all 3-4 of these major article directories
Therefore there is still value to doing manual article marketing submissions if you don’t put a lot of value in your time and effort…
The fact remains that getting backlinks from these article dirrctories decreases in effectiveness with each new backlink you get from them.
The FACT is, some of the 3-4 directories will require that your articles be unique content which means you have to write yet another article plus go through another manual submission process.
On the other hand, with Unique Article Wizard, you write ONE article and the you’re done, ONE-and-DONE-done…
ONE “UAW” article submission = hundreds OR even thousands of backlinks and extremely deep and wide article syndication
My recommendation has always been to:
- go with the “hot hand” and manually submit an article to EZA only (forget using the other major directories)
- then use your EZA article as the basis for your article submission via Unique Article Wizard.
- You can even link to your EZA articles from your UAW articles, in case you find yourself competing with other EZA articles for top SERPs.
