Thread: Article submission also gives you brand popularity

Agreed. Quality is the key and article syndication might follows.
Never happen to spun stuffs tho.

Article submission is one of the oldest forms of SEO for your site, and the effects have been negated for a few reasons, first you can only place links in the author resource box, and the search engines are not going to rely upon a link from the author resource box, even if you may attempt a link pyramid, this has a nominal effect for your site. Second, article submissions should be unique so this is time consuming and recommended, but again, very time consuming, and lastly, article submissions have to be carefully planned, many site that have accepted articles have been hit by Google's Panda, and it would be best to separate yourself from this.
