Receiprocal Linking Policy -
I took a look at your site... and I want to tell you that I'd really love to trade links with you. I think your site has some really good stuff related to my site's topic and would be a great resource for my visitors as it deals with some great
information that I'd like to give my visitors more information about.
In fact, I went ahead and added your site to my site's Directory. Is that OK with you?
Can I ask a favor? Will you give me a link back on your site? I'd really appreciate you returning the favor.

Ezine Publishing Cycles -
Thanks for sending out my article a week ago. I was curious about one thing. Only two people contacted me about putting my article on their site. No ezines have contacted me. Is this a normal response?

Posting in Password Protected Directories -
I am interested in putting one of your articles on our web site.... which is a metasearch site for finding and buying books.
The article is suitable for our booksellers and I would like it to go on our *dealer resource* page which is password protected. Since I would like the link to your site to be to our buyer page... only members will be able to go to the password protected page. Can I still post your article on my site?

Are there any Additional Sources I can use for Exposure? -
Hi Bill,
I'm Steve Robichaud's partner, Andrew Wroblewski.
I just wanted to tell you how pleased and happy we are with your article distribution service. We are already seeing positive results from the articles we submitted two weeks ago.
I was wondering if in ADDITION to your great automated service if there was anything else I could do manually (other article website archives etc..) that could compliment your efforts to get even more coverage and exposure.
I do NOT want to even try to duplicate your efforts, just compliment them and continue with using your fine service.
Thanks again,
Andrew

What is Article-Distribution.com? -
I am still receiving email from thePhantomWriters.com, but the distribution email originates from Article-Distribution.com . Why is this?
|

|
Where Exactly Do You Send My Articles? -
I had requested to receive a report from you concerning where you had distributed my article. I now have that report, and I am confused.
According to your advertising, you distribute my article to well over 10,000 publishers and webmasters. BUT, when you sent your report to me, there were only about 60 email addresses listed.
Can you explain to me the disparity between what you claim and what you delivered?

What Does your Service Fee Cover Exactly? -
I have Ezine Announcer but may be interested in your service. Is it X dollars for publication in one ezine or is it X dollars for the whole group in your category? I just want to be sure I understand what I get for X dollars. Thanks.

Search Links on Article Pages -
Bill,
I used the search links on the pages where my articles were posted to find out where my article had been published, and so far I saw it only in one site. Is it because other sites haven't been spidered yet, or by now we should already see the final results?

The TPW Distribution Rates -
I saw on another site that you offer article distributions for only $10. But, when I visited your payment page, I cannot locate the $10 distribution package. Why is that?
|
| 19.
|
Article Format for Best Results -
I have looked over most of your site, I think, and didn't see the answer to this. What length of article sells best and is the answer different for those picked up by web sites and those picked up by ezines?
|
| 20.
|
How-to Submit an Article -
To who and how do I submit an article for publication? I have four ready for publication today. Please let me know how I can get published today.
|

|
Setting Keywords in Hyperlinks -
Could you put the links in 'About the Author' credit to look like the sample below. This makes the links much more powerful for my sites. This is important because the reason I distribute these articles is to get the quality (keyword-rich) links back to my site.
Sample:

|
Sales Copy in the Article Body -
Comment from one of our Group Managers: "There have been a spate of writers including promotional stuff
within the body of their articles and I've been turning them all
away. I'm going to have to stick with this restriction and keep
the promotional link and invitation to the resource box only."

|
| 25.
|
Payment Methods -
Do I have to use Pay Pal to sign up? I am interested in your service, but I do not want to use Pay Pal.
Can I sign up using my MasterCard? If so, how?
|

|
Please Clarify the Nature of Your Distribution Program. -
I just want to clarify the nature of your program...... is that how it works?
This was unclear - on the site it sounded like you have a database of these thousands of publishers and you send to them directly to each publisher.
Just wanted to clarify the facts.
|
| 27.
|
Volume Purchases -
If I buy the several article distributions in a bulk purchase, will I need to send all of those articles at one time, or can I send those to you as I have them ready to go?
|
| 28.
|
How Do I Get My Distribution Channels Added to Your Program? -

Niche Topics Supported -
Hi Bill,
I'd like to know what type of articles you specialize in? I notice that a lot of the articles you distribute are focused on business, marketing, and Internet.

Thanks.

Too Many Emails...

Pen Names -
I only write articles through pen names. Is this acceptable for your service? I know some of your competitors will not let me use a pen name with my articles. I just need to know if you are the same way.
|
| 35.
|
I Have To Pay For This? -
I have looked here and it looks like one has to pay you to distribute anything I write, is this correct? I even have to pay you if I want to post an article on your website? You really have some nerve, don't you?
|
| 36.
|
Is It True That You Do Not Submit Articles To Websites? -
I read on one of your competitor's websites that you "cannot" or simply "do not" submit articles to any websites. Why not?
|

I paid but never submitted the article -
I wanted to have an article submitted, and I paid through Paypal, but never had the article submitted--I may have made a mistake and am not very tech savvy, but I would like to know what I can do to get it submitted without paying again. I would be happy to forward you the Paypal receipt. Please advise, thank you.

How Can I Track My Article's Success? -
I got the confirmation you sent out my article .
I just have a few questions. If I read the email correctly my article was submitted to 37,461 (webmasters) Yes?
It's been 5 days since then, if this is correct I have only received 6 confirmation from web masters that my article has been accepted.
I know not every web master will accept my article, and I hope I am not speaking out of turn here, but should I not be receiving a few more them 5 confirmations out of 35, 000 + or does it take
longer for confirmations to come in.
Thanks
Duffy Rogan
