As webmasters are well aware.. Although a URL or link may not be indexed it still passes and flows link juice. There is a huge difference between search engines indexing a piece of content and counting the links it sees in the content. However a well indexed and well written piece of content is likely to pass a lot more power and authority then a non indexed piece of content.

As you have probably noticed AR for quite a while now has been building links into published articles for monthly members.... read more »

There have been some big changes that have happened to articleranks over the past year. One of them has been the way we now publish articles and the changes that were needed to be made to evolve with search spiders intelligence. As you are already aware, each membership level has higher priority distributions - Free gives you the benefits when promoting a small sites, your starter increases publishes a little more with pro being full scale. Saying that, we have changed the publishing a little to now be random/intelligent publishing, so unlike other article publishing sites, we don't keep publishing your articles on the same site each and every time you submit it to that category - Instead each article will go to a random selection of sites in that category but not ALL of the sites - This is done to give much better link diversity and to look much more natural. In theory you may get 20-100 publishes per article - But then imagine writing 20 articles per month with each one getting published on different sites Yes it would be MUCH easier to publish each article all in one go on all sites and get 500+ published numbers (like we used to do) - But then if you are publishing 20-30 articles per month and promoting the same site does it really look natural to have the same site linking to you again and again and again all in a small timeframe of a month.... read more »

We are delighted to announce some innovative new features, along with some changes to the existing way Article Ranks works. You can view the full details of this announcement below.

First and foremost wed like to bring up concerns that a few of you have mentioned about publishing numbers. There are a few reasons why publishing numbers seem to have been dwindling for certain users, including:

• Removal of the All Categories selection. As most of you are probably aware, we removed said feature a few months back.... read more »

We have now implemented a block author function for users that are choosing to manually review articles before they get posted to their sites.

As you know we have always had the reject button and junk button, we have now added a new button called Block Author. If you are noticing that a lot of low quality articles are coming from one author and you no longer wish to receive their articles you can now select that article in question and block the author, so you will never receive their articles again throughout your account, even if you have 20 sites plugged into the system.

This will allow you to only receive content from the users you trust and that are on your own personal whitelist!

A block author function will also notify us, if we see an author is constantly getting blocked by users then we will personally deal with the account in question.... read more »

A lot of users have been trying to abuse the categories lately, therefore we have had to take action to stop the category spam.. Not only does this degrade the system, but it also send irrelevant articles to webmasters and they end up removing their sites from the system. So we have added to new measures

1) We have removed the ALL category from the add article section so you can no longer add an article to ALL categories, as a lot of users were just clicking ALL even though their article was not written for ALL subjects.

2) We have put a limit on the number of categories you can choose

Please note as mentioned in past posts we take spam very seriously. Anyone caught submitting the same article into the system multiple times WILL have their account terminated!... read more »

As many of our members may know we have recently been tweaking our backend to give you the best distributions, attract high quality sites and stop ALL spammers.

But in the end it all comes down to how high quality the sites in the system are.. Now do not get me wrong we have thousands of high quality sites in the system, from users and ourselves.

But we also had a few people putting very LOW quality sites into the system So as of today we have done a major site cleanup and deleted all sites from the database which we believed to be very low quality. We are also delighted to annouce that every month we will now be personally adding 30-80 of our own high PR sites into the network, making the network stronger and stronger every single month

Let us know if you have any questions :-)

We are delighted to announce our new feature for monthly members, if you are a monthly member you already know that your articles get distributed to blogs, FTP based sites and emails.

Now you will get more exposure than ever because we have just introduced 2 new features.

1) Your articles will now be published on social sites on multiple accounts, users will provide us their login information and we will publish your articles on social sites.

2) Our second feature is also very exciting, we will now be building social bookmarking links on multiple accounts, again provided by our members, into your articles that we distribute on blogs, FTP sites and social sites, so your article links will not only get indexed quicker but they will pass more and more power to your money site, as random selections of your articles will also have incoming links.

So what are you waiting for?... read more »
