And I was a little more than pleased to see I<br \/>\nhad made it into EzineArticles&#8217; Top 20 Expert Author Showcases&#8230; in<br \/>\nthe #3 spot!<\/p>\n<p>For me, article marketing is not dead and I refuse to believe otherwise.<br \/>\nIt is still an effective marketing tool, especially if you use unique<br \/>\narticles and carefully monitor your anchor text links in your resource<br \/>\nboxes.<\/p>\n<p>However, I would be foolish to believe article marketing hasn&#8217;t taken<br \/>\na serious beating in the last year or so. This is mainly due to Google<br \/>\nand its recent algorithm changes &#8211; mainly the Panda and Penguin Updates.<\/p>\n<p>In the Panda Update, articles took a serious blow, because websites and<br \/>\nwebmasters no longer wanted to display or reprint articles on their sites<br \/>\nsince Google and Panda believed them to be of lower value\/quality because<br \/>\nthey weren&#8217;t original.<\/p>\n<p>With the Penguin Update, articles faced an even greater firestorm because<br \/>\nGoogle was now targeting and de-ranking exact keyword matches in the<br \/>\nresource box links of these articles. Sites did not want to be seen by<br \/>\nGoogle as having spammy links and countless high quality articles simply<br \/>\ndisappeared from the web. You even had some sites deleting millions,<br \/>\nyes millions of articles, from their sites. Other sites displayed articles<br \/>\nbut with no backlinks.<\/p>\n<p>Good, informative high quality writing and articles will always be important<br \/>\non the web. And despite what Google wants, syndicating content is still not a<br \/>\ncrime. But writers do have to be careful not to violate Google&#8217;s Guidelines,<br \/>\nespecially when it comes to backlinks and keyword anchor text, if they still<br \/>\nwant to rank in Google.<br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bizwaremagic.com\/Ezinearticles_Top_20_Author_Showcases_Small.jpg\" border=\"2\" width=\"310\" height=\"334\" alt=\"EzineArticle Top 20 Author Showcases Screenshot\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\nAs for making EzineArticles Top 20&#8230; this was out of some 200 showcases featured<br \/>\non the EzineArticles&#8217; blog since 2005.
