Which Is Better For Building Links: Articles Or Blogs?
Some new Internet marketers wonder whether they should take up article marketing or blogging. The question is often asked, “Which is better for building links.” The answer is both of them.
What you need to understand about article marketing is it’s a long-term strategy, just like good white hat search engine optimization. Your chances of building a lot of links in a short time with articles are pretty slim unless you have one particular article go viral, and that’s rare. But it does happen. Short term possibilities are much better with blogging, though the long-term benefits of a single blog post are much less than they are with a single article. Again, unless that one blog post goes viral, which does happen.
The trick to building links is you have to know your medium. I like mixing the strategies and tactics to take a blended approach to build relevant one way links over time. If you use both articles and blogs then you can build a solid base of inbound links using various key phrases and link building tactics from both tools. You’ll build a much better business that way and a lot more links.

Why I think many folks are better off with blog posts rather than articles is that the latter are judged by different parameters. Any perusal of ezinearticles.com will amply demonstrate that many of their contributors can’t write at all.
On the other hand, the debate about well-written articles -v- blog posts is something else, altogether.

I think blogging brings readers to your site whilst article marketing is more of giving your site exposure in an outward manner.
Just my two cents!
I read evey write up you put out and enjoy all of them . I have used some of the thoughts and many have worked well .
I’m just about to start article writing and from what I can see it will help for the over all marketing of my site . I do think that if your in it for the long term that this is still the best way to put your ideas and thoughts out there and that you will get the best return on your info that you are sharing . I wrote one article and got 200 links from it in just three days . Wow I should have done this from tha start .
