ArticleRanks Is Working Very, Very Well

Lately I’ve been experiencing some troubles with Article Marketing Automation & Free Traffic System (to be clear, I still recommend these two services – but I have ran into some issues… I’ll get to those below if you’re interested.)

In much better news: ArticleRanks is working better than ever. I’ve been experiencing no glitches with their service and my articles are going out on more and more sites it seems. For example, an article I submitted at the beginning of the month has already made it’s way onto 60 different sites.

I strongly recommend ArticleRanks for link building purposes (along with Unique Article Wizard which has been very reliable since I began using it about a year ago.)

Problems With AMA & FTS?

For those who are curious about the issues I’ve been experiencing with these two services let me share some of the details here. My AMA articles are not going out to nearly as many sites as they used to. I have some AMA articles that have gone out to over 300 sites! But an article I submitted at the beginning of the month (the same one – spun with Magic Article Rewriter – that has gone out to 60 sites on ArticleRanks) has made it onto only 5 sites.

I’ve contacted them about this and they say they are just having some technical issues so I’m trying not to get too frustrated with it. I still think they are a good service and I have no plans on leaving them but it is disappointing that they are not working as well as they did previously.

With FTS I’ve had a couple problems.

The first is that my articles are sometimes declined and no reason is given. These same articles – spun with Magic Article Rewriter so I can submit the same spun article to multiple services – are accepted with the other article distribution services mentioned in this post.

The second is the awkward way the site works. I find the whole “choosing” and “rechoosing” of blogs to be very cumbersome. I much prefer the way AMA & ArticleRanks are set up. They are far more user friendly.

Another huge problem with FTS is the very awkward [spin]red|blue[/spin] spinning syntax they use. It’s because of this that I originally bought Magic Article Rewriter. Luckily that’s turned out to be a big net positive because it has saved me a huge amount of time with my article marketing by allowing me to spin an article just once and submit it via all four of these distribution services.
