I know for a fact that Market Wire syndication of your submissions DOES NOT fall under duplicate content issue. But I cannot say the same thing for other syndications. @Martin

Good question.

I know for a fact that Market Wire syndication of your submissions DOES NOT fall under duplicate content issue. But I cannot say the same thing for other syndications.

Is it safe to assume then that this does not fall under the category of duplicate content? I imagine the answer has to be that it does not but I was also wondering about syndication of articles to social bookmarking sites. Is it safe to assume that the same article being OnlyWired out to dozens of sites for posting also will not fall under the category of duplicate content?

Submit to sites with better PR. Press release sites provide you with a better bang for the buck. Market Wire in my opinion is at the top of the list (they do re-submit your article to multiple sites, but some rank well on Google News.) Just a quick note: they normally do not accept articles - only press releases. 2. I agree with you. It's better if you can upload HTML code, but all of these sites allow you to add your text-link. So, you're good with any of them. 3. Don't spend lots of time preparing your articles/releases. You can hire a writer (or us) to write your articles/releases for you for $150-$200. We provide you with 3 different versions for 3 different sites. @Martin

I had visited and read both of these pages before. I am still however in a quandary over 2 fundamental matters: 1. These lists are great and much appreciated but with so many choices, I am still left pondering where best to submit. If the articles/releases must be changed entirely from one to the next to have a positive SEO effect, then can I assume that that means that one good article in my field of expertise that I've slaved over to make sure it is high quality, well written and free of spelling/grammatical errors should not be submitted to more than one site even if submitting that same article once to an article directory and then again later to a PR site - 2 different formats? Should I just choose one or the other and if yes, which will deliver the most 'bang for the buck'? 2. Nowhere have I read any authoritative source with regard to this anchor text/hyperlinking issue. If an article directory or a PR site does not offer the option of uploading HTML source code but rather only text, how would just text be of any benefit from a SEO standpoint? Without visiting each of the sites on the lists and wading through their submission processes, I have no way to know which sites fall into which category. Does it matter in your opinion? To me it still seems it would be far preferable to submit to sites which allow uploading of HTML source code. I realize this may seem like 'paralysis of analysis' but I hate to labor over an article and have one good shot at submitting it and then submit it somewhere that it does not get picked up and generate any valuable back links or traffic to my site. Your advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you. I had visited and read both of these pages before. I am still however in a quandary over 2 fundamental matters:

This feature is checked by default and even if the comments are not more than 50 WordPress will create at least one duplicate URL which is comment-page-1 In the latest versions WordPress uses a rel='canonical' link which has fixed this problem. So you can either upgrade your WordPress to the latest version or you can simply go to discussions under settings and un-check the "Break comments into pages" feature or install <a href="http://yoast.com/wordpress/canonical/" rel="nofollow">Yoast Canonical URL’s plugin</a> to fix this problem.

If the article is 10 pages long there are 10 pages of duplicate comments. Doesn't this just create massive duplicate content on Wordpress sites, and is there any way to stop Wordpress from doing this? Thanks for any feedback.

I read somewhere that Matt Cutts had suggested to use language specific domains for the sites that have similar/same content in different languages. For example, if the main site is in English with a .com domain (www.example.com), the German version should be hosted on the same domain with a German extention i.e. www.example.de instead of sub domains such as de.example.com or directories such as www.example.com/de/. @Nicole
