Article submissions can be a great way to gain backlinks to your site or blog. Blog post’s can be a great way to add more content and get more page’s indexed in the search engines, thus sending your more traffic. So what do both of these things have in common? They both deal with writing and and typing. Not only that though, the way a search engine such as Google treats both of these can have a huge impact on your site.

Many people fail to realize how important having unique content can really be for your website. What do I mean by unique content? I mean typing it out yourself and not copying what someone else has already shared and put on the web. When you copy someones content word for word often times search engines will flat out ignore this content. Google, Microsoft, and Yahoo actually announced earlier this year that they would be supporting a new tag that should be used anytime you are posting duplicate content to your website.

I don’t think I can stress enough how important it is to always write blog posts by hand yourself, rather than visiting someone elses blog and copying their post – or automatically downloading it via autoblogger scripts. Same with articles; if you are every writing articles to submit to article directories try and write one unique article for each directory rather than writing one article and submitting it to directories. By writing a completely unique article by hand and submitting it to only one directory it can rank higher in the SERPs, therefor getting you more traffic from it. Google and other search engines absolutely love uniquely written content.
