Software to Facilitate Article Marketing

Reviews of JetSubmitter and MyArticleNetwork:

I'm sorry. I have to start off with a bit of a disclaimer (perhaps, I should call it a confession) about my approach to article marketing.

Here goes:

• It's unethical to steal bits and pieces of other people's articles and assemble them into an article that you claim as your own. That's what Jonathon Leger's Instant Article Wizard claims to do.
• On the other hand, if you only use Instant Article Wizard (IAW)as a research tool to gather data and ideas that you will reframe into your own article, that is acceptable ethical behavior. Indeed, IAW is a quick, easy and relatively thorough way of doing basic research.
• You should submit unique content to each article directory to which you submit. When another webmaster legally copies your article for publication, there is an understanding that other webmasters may use that same article, however there is an implicit assumption that the same article is not part of the distribution network of another article directory. (You can buy article submitting software that will submit the same article to 500 or more directories--after you have taken the considerable time to get it set up the first time you use it. Sorry, I won't even provide a link to such software.)

I know of only two article submission applications that meet my criteria and still manage to allow you to maximize the results of your article marketing efforts. Indeed, using either of these allows me the side benefit of getting far better results from my article marketing that my competitors who use less ethical approaches. (The good thing about Internet marketing is that, in the long run, being honest is absolutely beneficial from a business perspective.)

JetSubmitter and MyArticleNetwork are quite similar to each other in these ways:

• Each has a built-in article spinner. (If you are not familiar this article spinning--a method of creating multiple, unique versions of similar content in an entirely ethical way--you should read our article spinning page.)
• Both spin a fresh, unique article version for each site to which they submit.

MyArticleNetwork and JetSubmitter differ only in the targets of their article syndication.

MyArticleNetwork distributes directly to a networks of websites (mostly blogs) that have enrolled to receive free content. In all, at the time that I am writing this, there are more than 10,000 websites in a huge variety of categories that have enrolled. The system allows you to set a maximum number of sites who may publish unique versions. I usually set my limit to about 50 to 80 sites per article, depending upon how much spin preparation of I have done.

JetSubmitter distributes to potentially hundreds of article directories, each of which receives a unique version of your spun article. Remember, though, that the webmasters who take the article from a given article directory will not have a unique version. (I actually recommend submitting your article to far fewer than the maximum that JetSubmitter allows. I think a submission to between 10 and 40 of the list is best, depending upon the thoroughness of your spinning preparation.)

I actually subscribe to both services, because I do a great deal of article marketing. Both are amazingly inexpensive. JetSubmitter saves me hours in submission time (which I actually have done by employees, although I do most of my own writing and all spin preparation). MyArticleNetwork provides me with direct access to websites that would be extremely difficult for me to reach any other way.

I never distribute the same article to both services, as doing so would dilute the power of my article marketing efforts.

I continue to distribute my articles directly to the top directories that have managed to defeat automatic submission software. (In other words, I have no choice for these except hand submission.)

I know of no other subscriptions from which I receive more value dollar for dollar than both of these magnificent programs. Both together cost me less that one dinner per month as a mid-priced fine dining restaurant.

I strongly recommend both MyArticleNetwork and JetSubmitter! Both merit my coveted five star ranking:
