It’s no secret that we add rel=”nofollow” to all the links in articles submitted to article content king and I have explained before why we do this. It’s to help you get stronger back links from the site.

Now I am going to tell you how to use this site to get stronger back links. If you follow this advice you will help to focus the content on this site into “tight niche hubs” and greatly improve the quality of the site, while increasing the traffic you receive at the same time.

As you know, the links that you put on the profile page do not contain no follow links, all your articles link to this page so all the “link reputation” of all your articles is focused on your profile page, and from there the reputation is passed to the sites that you want to promote with your articles. i.e. The links that you add in the “favourite web sites” section of the profile page.

If you create a profile page for each “tight niche” that you write articles for, each profile page becomes a like a targeted index page for your articles and the web sites that you want to promote.

This focusing of your content should help your articles to rank better in the search engines and better optimise the “back links” that you receive from this site.

See how that works? Let me give you an example.

Let’s say you have written 7 articles about article marketing and 7 articles about how to lose weight. If you submit all 14 article under the same author name, the profile page for that author does not have any real focus. Is it about weight loss or is it about article marketing? The two topics are totally unrelated.

If you set up a separate author alias for each subject, then you basically have two “mini sites” within article-content-king. One about article marketing and one about weight loss.

We have the “index page” which is your profile page. These profile pages contains relevant links and information about each topic and are supported by all the (relevant) articles that you submit under this author name. Thus creating a “mini site” about the topic.

Visitors looking for weight loss information can find your weight loss “mini site” and people looking for article marketing information can find your article marketing “mini site”.

If you focus your content in this way then you should start getting a lot more traffic from the site, especially if you add a few links into your profile yourself.

The only potential problem with this is that every profile page needs a separate “author alias” (pen name), I know that some people write more to brand themselves and their name than anything else, so this method will not appeal to them.

For everyone else, it’s important to note, that we DO NOT accept articles from keyword phrases, or author names with numbers in them. Even if it is not your actual name, it still needs to be a believable name.

You can set up new author names and sort your older articles if you wish, but do not do too many at once because your articles WILL be removed from the site and placed back in moderation if you edit them. That includes changing the author name.
