I was on a forum that I frequent regularly and found this post that i felt just had to be shared.  This is probably the best information that i have read in a long time about article distribution services.  This guy certainly pulls no punches and should definitely open the eyes of anybody who does article marketing

Yeah we all have seen the content distribution networks which many also call article distribution services. These networks come pre-loaded with a junk copied spinner and with 1,000’s of sites that you can submit your work of art to. What these networks don’t tell you is the actual truth about their services.

Course if they did that then nobody would join and waste their time and money. It really amazes me how blind people really are. They think “Oh I can can submit to 1,200 article directories and blogs, I am successful” but they don’t see what they have accomplished is nothing. Oh yeah 1,200 backlinks sounds impressive – Woo Hoo!! your marketing now baby – Not!

Open your eyes and stop being so dumb, sorry but I am going to put it like it is. You are showing these morons how low your intelligence really is by giving them free money that you work hard for. The entire time they are laughing at how much of a moron you are to continue to pay them $47, $67, $127, and etc every single month when you are getting nowhere …

Let’s get the facts straight here and maybe some can open their eyes and see how dumb they really have been.

The content distribution networks or article distribution services such as UAW, SYA, CC, AM, AR, and etc. Are nothing but a false hope that plays on you and makes you think that they have some kind of magical advanced article marketing technologies that are going to make you famous and rich and powerful.

These so-called service submit your content to useless adsense filled sites, sites that are not marketed properly, sites that will be gone in 6 months to a year, and etc. Now you may be saying to yourself “yeah but a backlink is a backlink” – WRONG!

If a site goes out of business in 6 months then all those backlinks are gone.
If a site uses black*hat methods to drive up rankings then you will suffer.
If a site is not marketed properly then your backlinks mean nothing.
If a site is adsense filled then your links are devalued.

The truth is you are helping these useless adsense farms more than you are helping yourself. This is the truth, you are providing them content that otherwise they could not produce. In turn what do they do for you ? They toss ads all over your content to make money from google and cpa networks.

This is not the only issues but it is the major ones and should be enough of an issue for you to open your freaking eyes and stop being so blind. You do have a brain, use it!! Stop letting these morons think for you and tell you that you need their useless content distribution networks and article distribution services.

You have to do 3 times the work and spend 3 times the money (your time also = money) just to try and get the same results as someone that refuses to use these junk services. The entire time you are making someone else rich while you suffer trying to pay your lightbill. Wake the *&^%$# Up!!!

I get amazed every time I see post like this

“I tried SYA and results were not so good. I liked UAW for about a year until results lessened for the price; it was very time consuming and I did not like the monthly fee. I now like Article Submit Software and so far I love it, I get an average of 450 published articles per submission, its easier to use and a one-time fee (at least when I purchased it). You can get the PR of the directories, submit to only those you want out of a couple thousand, and get a report containing the urls of your articles so you can backlink to them if you want. I also use ezine, but keep those articles separate from the submission program.”

Ok wait …. You was ripped off by SYA but you still went to another scam service ( UAW ) that does the same thing just to find out it was useless. That did not stop you though because now you purchased software that does the same thing. You got 450 published articles but you got 0 or devalued backlinks from them so what did you accomplish moron ?? You are still doing the same thing and getting no results. How do I know you get no results ?

Simple you post says nothing about results which means you think in that tiny brain of yours that has been clouded that 450 published articles are results.. WRONG! that is not results and looking at your site I can see no results. Why do you love punishment so much to go from one service to another that does the same thing ??

Is anybody out there ? Does anybody listen in this day and age ? I many times wonder..
