1. When you submit your articles to article directories and encounter a question or a problem, what is the likelihood you'll be able to speak to a human?

I can't reach a human. It's not an option.

Sometimes I can reach a human by email.

I can reach a 3rd party customer service technician by phone.

I have my own account rep and can reach the owner of the company by phone or email at any time of the day or even at 10pm at night.

2. What best describes your article marketing strategy in context of the latest and quickest social media (i.e. Facebook, youtube, twitter) coverage?

I don't have an article marketing strategy.

Sometimes I write articles and upload them to my site, newsletter or article directories.

I have a consistent strategy for writing articles and distributing them to top article directories on a regular, systematic basis.

Not only do I consistently write articles, but my articles are also featured prominently on high traffic sites, social media outlets, and automatically streamed onto hundreds of other web sites as well.

3. What best describes your re-purposing strategy for articles?

I never re-purpose my articles. An article is an article.

30-50% of the time I use my articles in a blog and/or a newsletter.

75-100% of the time I re-purpose my articles into blogs, newsletters, special reports, and pdf downloads.

I turn a one-hour interview into 4 articles, 4 videos, 4 audios, 4 podcasts, 12 Twitter feeds, and 12 Facebook feeds.

4. When you post articles to article directories, how long does it take to post?

Not sure. I don't track it.

It takes 2-10 days.

They post in less than a minute, but they often get lost amidst thousands of keyword spammed and low quality articles.

My article posts in less than a minute and receives front page positioning.

5. When you post an article to an article directory, how long does it stay on the home page so that it will be picked up by search engines?

It doesn't appear on the home page of the article directory(ies).

A couple of hours.

A day.

I have complete control and my article can stay for as long as I want it to.

6. When you post an article to an article directory, what is your system for crafting a title that will receive the optimal search engine positioning?

Whatever comes to mind is fine.

I go for something catchy.

I run it by a few friends.

I know the secret to crafting my title to work in harmony with Google, MSN and other spidering search engines so I can get top positioning for the phrase I want to come up high for.

7. Which would best describe the platform marketing system you use for fast placement of your message across the internet?

I don't have a system.

Sometimes I outsource article submissions.

I hire a virtual assistant to do my article marketing, social media, etc.

I have a defined system for integrating my articles, tips, videos, podcasts, audios, and blogs into highly trafficked, relevant content and social media outlets.

8. What has been your experience with syndicating your articles?

Syndicate? What does that mean?

I use a site that blasts my articles out to an email list along with hundreds of other articles by other people.

I keep a list of Web sites and publications who want my articles and email them when I have a new article.

I use a service that automatically feeds my articles onto Web sites who want my articles as well as onto hundreds of other Web sites and blogs via various distribution methods

9. How often do you use Web 2.0 strategies to market your articles and create an expert presence online?

Never.

Sometimes. I make the occasional audio recording of my events.

Frequently. I'm involved in 2 or more social media sites, run a blog, create audios and even have an internet radio show.

Web 2.0 strategies are a constant part of my strategy for establishing myself as an expert online. I have videos, audios, podcasts, internet radio shows and systematically get them featured on high traffic sites and social media outlets.

10. How have you used a media room to promote your articles and deliver your message online?

I don't have a media room.

I have an About Me section on my site.

I post my press releases and media appearances on my web site.

I have a media page filled with audios, videos, radio/tv appearances, media mentions, etc. on a high-traffic expert directory where journalists come to find experts like me.
