Josh,
Thank about the video! Glad you enjoyed the video! I have fun doing these videos. It is so easy to do and also a great way to teach people about using different techniques through internet marketing.

Thanks for this great review on working with eZine Andy. I used to post articles there but stopped after the last big change with Google because it started taking so loooooong to get anything published. I’ve been thinking about giving article marketing another try so this is a good reminder.
Marquita,
If you are a Platinum or Diamond writer then they go through pretty quickly, so definitely check it out again if you are one of the two. They gave me a higher status, because I have a lot of quality artcles on the site.
Andy
Great tutorial on EzineArticles.com and how to use the interface. It really is pretty simple once you do it the first time, which you’ve already done for your readers with your video.
I used to be an avid user of EzineArticles, publishing over 100 articles, but I haven’t been using it much lately since Google “slapped” their site. Do you have any updates on his. What has Ezines done to counter the Google slap attack?
Thanks for the information!
Bob,
Thanks!
I know Kim Castleberry was discussing the Google Slap to Ezine recently, however, I do not have any knowledge of how this will directly affect bloggers. The fact is that if you write an article to a PR 6 site versus a PR 7 it should not affect most sites. Time will tell however, since the slap was relatively recent.

Ezine is a great resource for traffic and backlinks.
I have used it to help post rank and had the article actually outrank the post!
I saw the previous comment on the google slap. From what I understand they are making Ezine and other article sites to be more stringent on their content reviews so when people doing searches find an article in the index that it’s actually quality material. So having said that content is king once again.

Steve,
That is the benefit of using a site with an 8 PR. If I have a somewhat competitive keyword that I want to place for I will write the article on Ezine articles. That way it has a better chance of being found.
In regards to the slap, Ezine and other directories are working hard to up their guidelines even before Google slapped them. There was no reason to do so.
Andy
Thanks for the great resource! On a side note: ezine is pronounced with a long e (e-zEEn). It’s a combination of the words electronic and magazine.
But zine sounds like a lot more fun to say!
Hi Andy, EzineArticles is my number one go-to when I’m looking for information about almost everything. Credible articles can be found in there, definitely. 🙂 And that’s maybe one of the reasons why submitting an article to it can be not that easy, they are very strict in reviewing your articles. 🙂
Minerva,
I completely agree with you. There were a number of times that I thought about quitting ezine articles, because they would suspend my account for a minor infraction or something that I did not even do. Additionally, the first 20-30 articles that I submitted to them were constantly being returned to me. You definitely need to stick it out. Nowadays I just plug and play, because I know what they are looking for in my articles. If my resource info is too long I check it in advance. Or if I need to correct the title? I actually used their title finder a few months ago. They rejected the title they gave me. That was hilarious. At the same time I emailed them and they let the article go through. Just talk to them. They are pretty reasonable about getting everything straightened out.
Andy
