Do You Use Free Articles?

2 comments - Post a comment

Do you know that you can use articles written by others and use it on your blog or websites?These are free articles and it covers a lot of topics and I am sure you can find topics related to your blog very easily.A very popular place to look for this free articles is at Ezine Articles,where authors submit their article because they wanted to promote their blog and gain some good search engine rankings.When this author submit their articles,they can put their link to that article and anyone using those articles are required to put that link on their blog or website,helping the original author getting backlinks.The author get to expose his blog,get some backlinks and help his search engine rankings and you have an article for your blog,it is good for everyone involve,so you think.

Free articles actually can do your blog more harm than good.Yes,you can easily get an article for your blog,but starting a blog is suppose to be about writing your own stuff,about things that you like and that you know,so why use free articles?
  • A blog is suppose to deliver useful information,from your own knowledge,or maybe you read it somewhere and wanted to share it with your readers,something that is written by you,not something written by someone else,and maybe you are not the only one using that article.
  • A blog is suppose to be about your personal thought,your personal view regarding the topic of your blog.By using free articles,you are using your blog to show somebody else view and thoughts,not yours,and certainly there is no originality.You can write about topic that others have wrote about,but write it yourself,in your own way,your own style and maybe you can add something that is missing from what others have wrote,or approach it from a different angle.
  • Search engine love unique content,if you are using free articles,there is nothing unique about it,because hundreds or thousands other people might be using that same article.You might end up getting penalized by Google because of "Duplicate Content" and it won't help your search engine rankings one bit.
  • A blog is suppose to give value to the readers and by using free articles you certainly are not doing this,you are cheating your readers.Imagine your readers reaction when they found those same articles at some other blogs?It will certainly send your credibility tumbling down.Your readers want to read what you wrote,your view,your thought,not something written by someone else,and some of those articles are not even worth reading,if you don't believe me,go have a look.
  • People resort to using free articles because they start blogging for all the wrong reason.If you start your blog about things that you know,that you like,will you be having trouble to make a post?
I've read in Internet Marketing books,use a blog to start making money online,if you don't know what to write,don't worry,you can always use free articles,maybe this is one of the reason why people use this free articles.
