If there's one thing that Google loves, it's content. Done right, a content rich website is about bonded to rating highly. But how to get that content? You can write it yourself, but that takes a lot of time. You can pay an SEO employee
to write it for you, but that takes a lot of money. If only there was another option...
What if you could get your content for free? And not just a little bit of content; a lot! What if you could get an about unlimited supply of keyword rich, like an expert written content, specific to your subject matter, perfectly free of charge? Would-be you snap it up and transfer
to your site in an instant? Of course you would! Well here's the nice news: you can! See on to find out how you can get a top ten ranking in the search engines without paying a single cent...
Yes, content gives you a great ranking
Content is king. This is wide
acknowledged as fact, but if you need further convincing, consider the following two points:
Point 1 - In Google's own words, one of the keys to a high ranking is to "create a useful, information-rich site" (from “Google Information for Webmasters” - http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html).
Point 2 - Google insider, codenamed 'Google Guy', advocates a list 26 steps to building a high ranking site. Step 5 of the list says, "build one page of content and put online per day at 200-500 words" (from Brett Tabke's "26 steps to 15k a Day" - http://www.searchengineworld.com/misc/guide.htm, advocated by Google Guy in a WebMasterWorld QA session - http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum30/29727-6-10.htm).
But why does content give you a great ranking?
I won't go into any further detail just about IF Google loves content. I will, however, concisely explain WHY. Google's love affair with content is based on two key attractions:
1) Google loves sites with a lot of content because it assumes they provide a lot of useful information. And remember, that's the whole reason Google exists - to help folk find useful information. The more helpful Google's results, the more traffic (and revenue) it gets.
2) Google loves sites that have a lot of links inform
to them because this means another webmasters hold your site in high regard, and Google assumes this means the content is useful. And naturally, if you create a useful site, another webmasters wish link to it because this does them useful to their visitors (thereby developing site loyalty), and they gain credibleness and authority because they're associated with you.
So how can you get free content for your website?
Three words: 'free reprint articles'. There are hundreds of thousands of folk out there writing high quality, helpful, informative articles on virtually every topic imaginable, then giving these article away to any webmaster who wants to publish them on a website. In exchange for the article, the author asks only that you retain the author bio at the end, complete with all links (e.g. "Glenn Murray is an SEO Employee
and Article Submission Specialist...).
To find free content for your website, just visit any one of hundreds of 'article banks' on the Computer network such as http://www.ezinearticles.com, http://www.goarticles.com, or http://www.articleblast.com. Browse or search for the subject you're interested in, then take the article(s) for free. There is perfectly no charge. Several of these sites wish even as send a regular stream of articles direct to your website (using RSS).
Alternatively, you can sign up to any number of article distribution lists and get articles delivered direct to your email inbox. Again, it's perfectly free! Several of the better acknowledged distribution lists include http://groups.yahoo.com/group/article_announce, http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/Free-Content, and http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Free-Reprint-Articles.
TIP: The article banks and distribution lists mentioned above are just the tip of the iceberg. There are hundreds more - just do a search for "free reprint articles", "article submission", "article submission site", "submit article", "article submit site", "free articles", or "free content". You may even as find a site or list which only deals in articles relating to your particular subject matter.
Why is it free?
Why are these authors giving their articles away? Because it helps the author's own search engine ranking. It's a promotional work acknowledged as 'article PR'. As explained above, Google loves sites with lots of links inform
to them. Every time their article submission is published, the author gets another link to their website. In fact, if the article is actually good, it may be promulgated hundreds of times. And each time, it's another link to the author's website. Put simply, article submission is a writer's free pass to the top of the search engines. (In this sense, the "PR" in article PR stands for PageRank.)
Furthermore, like traditional public relations, article PR besides conveys a sense of authority because your articles are wide
published. And because you're proving your expertness and freely dispensing knowledge, your readers wish trust you and wish be more likely to remain loyal to you. (In this sense, the "PR" in article PR stands for Public Relations.)
How do I cognize if the quality is good?
It's a process of natural selection. The better the article submission, the more often it wish be published, so it's in the author's interest to write and submit articles of the highest quality. Of course, this doesn't always happen, but in most cases, you'll be reviewing the articles before you post them anyway, so if you learn one that's not up to scratch, don't use it.
In time, you'll become familiar with the authors who systematically
put out nice quality content - you may even as find enough of them that you don't need to go looking for content from anyone else...
Where do I put the free content?
Most folk put the articles in an 'Articles' or 'Resources' section on their website, but you can put them anyplace
you like.
How more free content should I use?
As more as you want or as little as you want. It all depends on your inevitably and the inevitably of your audience. If your audience expects that at least several of your site is innovational content, then give it to them.
But what just about the duplicate content issue?
It's not an issue!
There's a lot of a talk just about how Google penalizes duplicate content. The theory is that once
the majority of the content on two separate webpages (on several sites) is the same, the one with the higher PR wish be shown and the another one wish not.
Whether or not this theory is true is still a hot topic in search engine circles, but regardless, it doesn't affect folk publication free-reprint articles. Once
you publish the article, just do sure you have unique content about it. Generally, it's enough to have your own unique introduction to the page (which may be common to all pages), and your own navigation elements, headers, footers, sidebars, logos, images, etc.
Conclusion
Free reprint articles are a great way for you to accomplish a high ranking. And you don't have to pay a cent! So what are you waiting for?
Happy reprinting!
