Best submission practices for using Unique Article Wizard

Even though I am a big fan of Unique Article Wizard, I disagree with some of their recommendations for article submission rates and best practices….

UAW (Unique Article Wizard) used to recommend a daily submission rate of 50 submissions/day and I’ve always thought that was a bit much.

After all, too many links in too short a time leads to over linking and could make all those links get discredited either temporarily or permanently.

Recent UAW dialed down their recommended submission rate to 30/day and I still think this is too  much.  My recommendation?: 10 submissions/day.

Here’s how you want to look at this:

  • 10 submissions a day may equal = 5-7 acceptances and publishings (syndication of that particular article)
  • Of those 5-7 “re-pubs” (re-publications) you might get 5-7 indexed articles but depending on the number of articles the hosting site is publishing daily, you might get close to 5 out of 7 articles syndicated indexed.
  • So, according to these numbers… even at the bare minimum 10 submissions/day you’re still likely to get 5 links a day to your sites, and that’s a bit much for a new site.

And this is why you want to link to 3 different urls per article, to soften the backlinks acquisition by sending the backlinks to different urls and even different sites.

With unique article wizard you can link to ezinearticles’ articles, squidoo and hubs and free wordpress sites, twitter accounts etc…. so it’s a powerful service if you use it correctly.

Unique Article Wizard is so powerful that you’re almost forced to spread the link love and link juice around to your 3d party virtual real estate (lens, hubs, EZAs etc…)…

But the upside to the dangerousness of Unique Article Wizard’s power is that it almost forces you to get links to your outer rings of sites and does this automatically for you.

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…

  1. EzineArticles.com
  2. FindArticles.com
  3. Articlesbase.com
  4. 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.

Unique Article Wizard article writing tips

As I mentioned in a previous post, I tested out Unique Article Wizard for 5 months for free by using the WordPress plugin to receive free articles.

After using receiving free articles for close to 8 months now, at the time of this writing, I noticed that some UAW users are making some mistakes.

I want to share this information with to better improve your results with using Unique Article Wizard now, and/or to better prepare you for when you do “take the plunge” and start rockin’ and rollin’ with UAW…

Here’s a mistake that some Unique Article Wizard users are doing…

They’re writing these 2-part articles (part 1, part 2) and submitting them for syndication…

This will have 2 drawbacks for you if you start submitting articles using a “pillar articles series” method of writing Part 1, then Part 2 article series.

You see, sometimes site owners like me didn’t see or approve the Part ONE article, so when we see in the title of the article some thing like;

“The XL40-1200 series widget review – Part  2″

it just doesn’t make sense for site owners to publish this second article, no matter how good it is because we haven’t seen nor published the part ONE article yet.

You might have great content in the Part TWO article but that doesn’t matter to me, as a free article receiver because in order for me to publish this Part TWO article, I’d have to spend time rewording the title.

If you publish Part TWO without posting part ONE, your site visitors will want to see Parts ONE and TWO and when they don’t see both they’re disappointed and left unsatisfied.

The Second reason you don’t want to write articles this way is a time issue…

Even if you submit your multi-part article series all at once, site owners receiving these free articles may not publish them in the order they were received.

You see, I know the pace at which new sites should publish new content and the pace at which older sites should publish new content…
New sites should publish new content at a much slower pace than older, aged sites should.

Therefore, for my new sites, I’m not going to post every day, or even every week…

Therefore some of my sites have a bit of a time gap between posting dates.

Therefore, when I am ready to publish a new “UAW” article, your Part 2 article might be lost amongst the other articles in my admin panel queue… so when I go to approve/publish a new article, I may not see your queued
Part TWO article right away, and will probably just publish the next good article I see in the queue.

So even if I did publish both of the articles in the 2-part series, my site visitors will see the Part 2 article on the front page and wonder where part 2 is…

And I could help them out by linking to the Part ONE article previously published but that’s more work for me.

Using Unique Article Wizard for receiving free content is supposed to make life easier for you, not make more work for you..

So avoid these 2-part article series when submitting articles via UAW…

SAVE these multi-part article series for your own content sites and link them together and post them in order…

IF you insist on submitting multi-part article series via Unique Article Wizard, you should link to your sites where the whole article series is there and in order.

If I saw a free article that read “Blah-blah-blah , Part ONE” in the title but your article linked to part TWO (like on your own site, see above sentence), then that will have the added benefit of increasing your click through rates and will definitely increase the percentage of submissions that actually get approved and published…
