You may remember that I had serious problems with EzineArticles in the past. The incompetence in a few cases had me wanting to pull my hair out (and that’s not just for the sake of bitching – I’m talking about taking the time to write unique material only to have it rejected because someone couldn’t count to 4).

Well, I recently gave them one more (last) shot. I’m pleased to say, so far so good.

While I don’t believe in using article directories for personal branding or building an authority status (because they simply don’t carry the weight of more targeted outlets for that marketing energy), I figured it might be a worthwhile endeavor to give article marketing in that sense another go in promoting a product (my Web Writer’s Guide e-book).

Now, I’ve only written four new articles so I don’t want to get my hopes up too high, but so far all four were approved without even a hint of a problem like those I had previously.

Let me put it out there to others who use them more frequently then – have you noticed changes for the better with EzineArticles over the last few weeks or couple of months?
