=====================

1. Why would I want to submit my articles to other sites? I have them on my own site and my blog. Isn't that enough?

No, publishing your artcles on your own website and blog is not enough. You need to be found all over the Web. Here’s why you need to start submitting articles today:

First, the only people who see your articles will be the ones who visit your site. There are a lot of other sites out there that reach people who don't know that you are alive. When you submit articles to other sites, you'll reach new audiences.

Second, each time they print an article, you'll have another link pointing to your site. Readers can click the link to find your main site and read more about your products and services.

Third, they'll read your "bio box," a short summary describing who you are and what you do. It will always contain a link back to your website so readers can find you if they want to business with you.

2. Why would other sites want to print my articles? I don't want to print anyone else's articles on my site!

Many other sites aren't experts like you.

back to top

3. How can we submit the same article over and over?

There are millions of online publications and many more million readers. Many publications will use an already published article because the chance of someone seeing the same article twice is remote. Editors also take into consideration that they don’t pay for one-time rights so they cannot require a custom article. In addition, you can suggest publishers “wrap” your articles with comments at the top or bottom of the article in order to help them avoid a duplicate content penalty from search engines.

back to top

4. Will they edit my work?

Most sites are happy to print your articles word-for-word and include a link back to your website.

back to top

5. Can this help with my search engine positioning?

Yes. Every time a site prints your article, the link to your site will be posted. Search engines look for these links. When they rate your site, the number of inbound links to your site is a very important factor. The more links you have, the higher your site will rank.

back to top

6. Does Google index the sites you submit to?

Yes. We only submit to sites that are highly ranked and searched by Google.

back to top

7. Do you submit articles in a way that Google respects or do you blast articles out there?

Yes. Google hates when people try to manipulate their rankings and will ding your article submission campaign if you send out too many articles too quickly. We understand this. That’s why we submit articles at a rate of 25 sites per week for 4 weeks.

back to top

8. Does Alexa index the sites you submit to?

Yes.

back to top

9. What is Alexa?

Alexa.com is a website that tracks the traffic of all websites. Go there and type your website URL and you’ll see where your site ranks among the millions of websites found on the Web today. Now, check out our article submission successes and see where those sites rank.

back to top

10. Why should I hire someone to do this? I can do it myself.

You can submit your articles to a few sites. But only PR LEADS Article Marketing Service will hand-submit your articles to the top sites! You probably couldn't find more than a dozen if you searched the search engines. We've spent a lot of time finding the best sites to post your articles. If you'd rather do the work yourself, you can buy your very own directory of top web sites and ezine publishers within your specific targeted niche that have strong emotional connections to their audiences. The stronger the connection, the more sales you can make. You can buy the sites with your specialty by clicking here!

back to top

11. Isn't submitting articles easy?

No. It is a difficult, time consuming task. Here's why. Different sites have different submission guidelines that cover nearly every aspect of submitting articles. For example, some sites allow HTML, while some do not. Some sites have a word limit either in the title, body, summary, or the byline, so you have to refit each article. Some sites have different formats requirements: Some say 65 characters per line, some say 60 characters per line, some say no text wrapping. Some sites limit the number of links in an article and in the byline box. Some sites do not like links at all in the article.

If you want to deal with all these variations, that's up to you. If you don't want the hassle, then let us do it. We will customize your article to fit the exacting demands of each publication. Click here for more information on our article submission campaigns.

back to top

12. Couldn't I use software to automate this?

Yes, you can use software to automate PART of the task, but those programs don't do a lot of the work for you. You still have to go each site, register your username and password, confirm your information by email, then go to the site to enter your username, enter your password. Only then can you upload your article, but you still have to manually tell the site which category or topic area your article can be placed in. You also have to change the article to fit the formatting requirements of each site (see the previous answer for the excruciating details.) No software can do that for you.

Plain and simple, you don't just push a button and see your article uploaded to hundreds of sites. You still have to do a lot of handwork. Plus, those software programs only have about 200 sites and they might not have a good representation in your field of expertise. We have more than 1,000 sites that we'll submit your articles to. Also, some sites don't accept articles from software programs. They will only accept articles by hand. If the software worked flawlessly, we'd use it too! Unfortunately, we learned the hard way that you must do a lot of the work yourself.

back to top

13. Does your company submit articles by hand or by software?

We manually submit all articles. The highest rated websites will not accept articles delivered by software. They want unique content and they know that articles submitted by software will be sent to every site imaginable.

back to top

14. Why should I use PR LEADS instead of another company? I'm sure I can find some other place that can do it for less.

PR LEADS is the only company that provides a turn-key, one-stop-shopping service. Not only will we submit articles for you, but we will also proofread them, and make them search engine friendly. No one else will provide you with the reports that show you the work that was done, like PR LEADS will.

No one provides as much customer service, editorial service and report services as PR LEADS. If we charge more, you are getting more service. If other places charge less, you are definitely getting less service. You will receive a truly customized package and consulting service that other places do not provide. We will answer any questions you have. We provide a highly interactive and personalized service that no one else offers.

back to top

15. Will PR LEADS handle all the day-to-day correspondence with website and ezine editors?

You can spend hours answering questions from website and ezine editors. We will handle all the routine correspondence for you, and will only bring you in when you need to answer an important question. This way, you can focus on the most important aspect of your business – making money.

back to top

16. What do article editors think of PR LEADS?

Editors love us. We submit articles to editors upon request. We never spam editors with articles that are poorly written or are not topic appropriate. We submit articles in accordance with their requirements for formatting and other guidelines. We are intimately familiar with each site's particular requirements so editors accept our articles while they might reject other articles that don't fit their formats.

back to top

17. Are the sites on your article submission list well known across the web, or are they dummy sites that you set up?

Unlike some unscrupulous article submission service providers who promise to post your article to hundreds or thousands of sites for a very low fee – like $15, we get our clients published on top sites like About.com, HealthyWealthyNWise.com, CEO Online, CEO Refresher, ModernMom.com, Entrepreneur.com, and Mothering.com. We focus on sites that search engines and your targeted audience visits frequently.

back to top

18. Can you give me some examples of targeted websites and ezines that my articles can be published in?

Please click here to read about our clients article marketing success stories.

back to top

19. Do you use a scattershot or a targeted campaign approach?

We target very specific audiences like health, parenting, marketing or C-level executives. We don’t want you wasting your money reaching audiences that aren’t interested in your message.

back to top

20. How often should I be writing and submitting articles?

You should be writing and submitting at least 1 article per month on a continual basis. That’s why we recommend investing in our Serious Article Marketer’s Package or the Starter Article Marketing Package.

back to top

21. What do you charge?

The article submission process can take up to 10 hours or more to submit one article to just 100 sites. This doesn’t count the proofing, editing, optimizing, consulting and following up. All this work takes time and effort. That’s why we charge $495 for our service. For discounted rates, check out our Serious Article Marketer’s Package and our Starter Article Marketing Package.

back to top

22. How can I track my results?

Use Google's free clipping service. Go to www.google.com/alerts
In the form where it says "search terms" write the headline of your article and put it in quotation marks. While you're at it, use your name as a search term.

Lots of our clients have found articles this way. When Google spots the article, they will send you an email that contains a link to the article.

back to top

23. Do you track results for me?

No. Tracking results would take too much time and we'd have to charge you for it. That's why we suggest you use Google Alerts. You could also hire an online clipping service to monitor your results. They charge at least $300 per month plus a charge for every article find.

back to top

24. How long will it take to get results?

You should start to see results in 4-6 weeks. We submit articles at the rate of 25 sites every two weeks to be in compliance with Google's best practices. Remember that publishers have many articles to choose from, and they usually work a few weeks ahead of time. In other words, there are other articles that will run before yours will. Be patient and you'll see your results.

back to top

25. How many sites will print my article?

We submit to about 100 sites and article directories. On the average 60 sites will print your article. The more unique your message, the more sites will print it.

"As a sales trainer, I emphasize to my clients, readers of my book – The Four Kinds of Sales People, and to my speeches’ audiences that breakthrough sales is never a “one size fits all” roadmap – and Dan Janal & Eric Gruber from the PR LEADS Article Marketing Service completely understands that concept.

You can't get as much customization from a software program. You can't get as much personal attention from a high-priced PR firm. You certainly can't get faster feedback from a teenager who started a business like this yesterday and is masquerading as an "Internet Guru." The PR LEADS Article Marketing Service is truly the Rolls Royce of the Internet that helps me increase web traffic, build credibility, and greatly improve my book sales all at the same time."

Robert Smith

"You were right when you said article marketing can possibly lead to additional future marketing opportunities. Here’s a response from one of many credible online business publications:

'I loved your article and I have linked it to your main page. It is truly a "killer" idea and I will feature anything else you have -perhaps testimonials as to the effectivesness etc. Your entire "story" in the palm of your hand, and a most exceptional value as a gift for prospective customers is something I look forward to helping you promote in the near future.'

Thank you PR LEADS Article Marketing Service – I will get started on writing another for next month’s submission."

Jim McKinley

The best part is he broke it into smaller bites so I can radically improve my site without a hiccup in my business. Other services that I have looked at wanted thousands more for the exact same advice and they strong-armed me to implement the plan using their services.
