It seems any SEO reference site/forum you go on these days will have a thread announcing the end of article marketing, and Google no longer values article links.
I must admit, the internet seems awash with awful low quality articles which are purely for SEO purposes, and offer little to a human reader, and also assumed articles were on the way out, or at least less important as a source of links.
But came across this experiment, which although was started 12 months ago, seems to be still current.
link now dead
I know there are a few people here who do article marketing, what does anyone else think? Has it had it's day or as this article suggests, is an important SEO tool?

Article Marketing Anchor Text Experiment I know there are a few people here who do article marketing, what does anyone else think? Has it had it's day or as this article suggests, is an important SEO tool?” Your give resource is not opening, please re-confirm the link... It seems to be interesting experiment which result are very important for me as i do article submission regularly... addyj672
Looks like the resource has gone. This is a thread from Feb, so all the Panda stuff which hit the article sites would have skewed any results, which I'm guessing why the resource is no longer there.
More than likely I reckon. I used to work a lot with article marketing, but have since then moved on to blogs. I'm not saying that article marketing is dead, it still has a good many uses. It can be used for a link back, and even though it may not be as powerful as it once was, it still helps. Another reason why it might still be a good idea, is it can help with your company and site credibility. Authority seems to be the new best thing to PR, and I believe that you can tell a lot about a company simply by reading what they have to say. Thanks, Dreamraven
