ezinearticles.com "technical" question 3rd February 2011 10:51 AM
Thanks Proval, This is what I'm doing.

I aim to write articles linking back to each of my web site's most important pages and then place the two anchor text links to the relevant page as well as my Home page. I've one article "live" and two articles pending.

Would be interested to know others' experiences of any increases in site visits and improvements in Google page placings as a result of ezinearticles.com exposure.

Best wishes, Linda
Seems like a re-run of the 1979 - 81 crash to me, with a few further complications we didn't have then (eg new graduates up to their ears in student debt doing unpaid internships in the forlorn hope of getting grad jobs).

The government's really good at slash and burn but nowt else, it seems to me.

They have talked about growing the economy - can't see any signs they've thought how or when this desirable goal might be achieved.
the simple things - telephone etiquette 28th January 2011 4:18 PM
Dunno how others feel on this .... Personally, if a business call comes in, I like the caller to tell me instantly their name and their company's name. If the caller doesn't, I assume it's yet another cold caller trying to sell me / us something we've no interest in buying.

My pet peeve is a company which tries to sell us either very expensive directory space or a share in a video (both targeting public sector organisations). They employ very well-spoken people who take ages to say why they're calling, in spite of polite requests to do so.
How to improve my KW Rank 28th January 2011 4:01 PM
Innocent Advertising

You advised bookmarking sites that have links back to our own sites (eg when one of our ezinearticles is approved we should bookmark it).

What's the benefit please of bookmarking the sites?

I'm new to this area of work, as you'll realise!

Thanks for your help, Linda

Thanks again, you've saved me hours of fiddling around getting nowhere.

Thanks, thanks and more thanks! Will now see if I'm allowed to adjust the ezine article in accordance with your advice.

It's been so frustrating, I'm anticipating my second article will be rejected purely because of the Resource box problems I'd experienced.

Hi All

Have got an answer from ezine.com but don't think I understand it.

1. Please could somebody tell me whether my "worked example" (given below) would actually work?
2. And if it wouldn't, what have I not understood please about the answer I've been given?
3. Also, when someone says they want http://your-company-name does it mean everything'll throw a wobbly if I put http://www.your-company-name instead?

ezine.com advice:-

You are able to create linked text by using the following HTML:

<a target="_new" href="http://your-company-name.com/">Anchor
Text Here</a>


My goal is to have my anchor text reading Career and linking through to the home page of my website.

So, do I first switch from WYSIWYG to the HTML version of the article submission page - or isn't that necessary?

When I get to the word before the Career I want to use as my anchor text, do I write as follows please:

<a target="_Career" href="http://www.careers-partnership-uk.com/">Anchor Text Here</a>

Would be grateful for any advice offered. It is so frustrating to fall at this last hurdle! Best wishes, Linda

To all ezinearticles.com experts

Please could you answer a question I've got that's so basic it doesn't seem to be answered on the ezinearticles.com site anywhere?

What I want to do is to put in 2 lots of anchor text (links to my home page and a relevant web page) in the Resources box (the bit where you're allowed to advertise yourself).

I can't work out how to do it.

There is an "insert link" tool that works for the main body of the article; it doesn't seem to work for the resources box.

Have asked this question via ezinearticles.com customer support but haven't yet had an answer.

Would very much appreciate your help, thanks.

After what you've all said about Waitrose, I'm surprised they're willing to let me through the door!

Happy New Year rather late, everybody.
