    It`s not on Google`s best interest to show the same article more than once within the first results.
     
     
    Zeke, where are you getting your information from?
     
    That`s a myth, just like that whole duplicate content thing is a myth and I can prove it by shattering both myths. Right here, right now.
     
    One of my articles 10 Proven Tips For Making Money Online appears 5 times in the first 10 results for my chosen keyword phrase, out of nearly a half million results. One myth shattered.
     
    And since that`s one article in multiple locations, that`s duplicate content appearing on the first page of results multiple times. Both myths shattered.
     
    And this is not an isolated case either. I`ve seen it occur on many other occassions with many other articles.

    From what I have read here, I understand that it is important to write articles and publish them, my questions are:
    -How long should each article be?
    -Is it better to write on a variety of topics or a few topics from a variety of angles?
    -Is there a recommended frequency of submission? (Let`s say I want to write 12 articles, and will write all 12 over a week or so.  Do I write them and submit them all in one day?  Submit them over one week?  2 a week? 1 a week?  How much do I spread it out?)

    Brandon, there really aren`t any a hard fast rules for article marketing except one...be committed. I`ll answer your questions based on my own personal experience.
     

    How long should each article be?

     
    EzineArticles.com, the #1 article directory in the world will only accept articles that are at least 250 words. So that`s a good guideline to follow.Is it better to write on a variety of topics or a few topics from a variety of angles?That`s a matter of personal preference. I choose to focus on a single niche - marketing. Others write on a variety of different topics. Write whatever you`re comfortable writing.Is there a recommended frequency of submission?
     
    I find you get more mileage out of your articles if you stagger your submissions. For example, if you write 12 articles, spread them out over a six day period by submitting two articles each day - or one article each day for 12 days.

    david - i concur with you on the duplicate content issue.  this has been a long debated topic. however from personal experience and results of colleagues it is clearly a myth.  search engines most care about good quality content from what i have experienced so far.

    I usually submit different articles to these websites. Aside from promoting my content, I also see to it that my potential readers will get good information from my posts.
