Article marketing works, yes I know it works. I use articles as part of my tool kit. But what about when they don’t work?

Let me explain, you produce articles to get links and traffic. What if the article doesn’t get indexed by Google? Then you don’t really get as much value from the article ,the link in it, as you should be. Sure you will still get traffic and I have sites that earn money every month even though they are nowhere near the top 50 for their keywords.

But getting the maximum leverage you can from every article you have out there makes sense doesn’t it?

I had a reasonably in depth conversation with a mate of mine about this idea the other day, which I will try and paraphrase here.

Say you want to get your site 10 extra links isn’t it easier to find 10 articles you have out there which aren’t indexed and get them indexed rather than producing 10 new articles?

Sure if you only have one or two articles out there it’s not a problem but if you have various pen names on ezine articles with 50+ articles in each then it can become a bit more of a pain. Checking the articles for indexing is one of those jobs that you mean to do but you know it will take ages so you never get it done.

It is all about maximizing the value you get from the time you took to write the article or the money you spent for someone else to write it for you.

I felt that this was so important that I was going to get a tool made to go find the non indexed articles and someone beat me to it so rather than reinvent the wheel I thought I would let you know about his tool.

Until I know which ones are indexed there is nothing I can do about it, so step one is finding the unindexed pages!

I do not know the guy who made this tool, I actually spent my own money on this tool and I am using it to improve my business.I do feel it is good enough and important enough that I am promoting it to you. Anyone who knows me knows I don’t recommend things easily.

If you would rather go straight to the page then here is the link. Oh and yes that is an affiliate link! But you can watch a video of it in action here and I throw out a few idea on things to do to fix the problems with your articles.

I think I have covered everything in the video but as always please do feel free to post a comment. I hope you find this little tool as useful as I do and use it to help power up those links.

Building more links is great but make sure that they are getting noticed!
