The Main Reasons That Your Article Is Rejected

The Main Reasons That Your Article Is Rejected

You’ve heard that article marketing is the thing to do, you are not too great at writing but you have given it a shot, but your article has been rejected.  So what are the common reasons for being rejected?

Selling not Informing: The number 1 reason for your article being rejected is because you have made it too salesy.  Articles should be interesting and informative not a selling tool.  You sell in the resource box at the end.

Wrong Language:
If the article site is in English then submitting articles in other languages is not going to work so why bother?

Links: Too many people don’t read the submission guidelines and put too many links, links in the wrong places, links with affiliate links and links to other article sites.  All of these will get your article rejected.

Keyword Stuffing: Filling your article with keywords to the detriment of the article will get you rejected very quickly.

Boring:
This tends to be found in the internet marketing, business and real estate categories.  If you article is a mish mash of fairly standard stuff and has nothing of interest to say or saying the same old, same old.

PLR: Some people submit PLR articles and hope that the article site has not noticed.  Well any article site of note will have seen this stuff numerous times and will recognise them straight away.  Same for PLR put through an “article spinner” that changes a few words or adds sentences.  Still going to get rejected!

Similarity: Submitting loads of articles on very similar themes with paragraphs that will be shuffled ad nausea will quickly get you banned from the site all together.

Too Short or Too Long: Too many people try to get away with a minimum amount of work and submit very short articles.  At the other end of the scale are those that just cannot stop writing 300 – 700 words, not including the resource box, is the general suggested size.

Good luck with your article marketing.
