“The problem that ALL article submission services have: Published articles don’t get indexed well. Solution:
EXTRACT THE URLS OF PUBLISHED ARTICLES AS FEED and SUBMIT THEM TO RSS FEED DIRECTORIES (Email me for help).”
at his page: comparison of article submitters, but didn’t explain how to do it. Here is a short guide:
Part 1: The Indexing Tool + Trackback Plugin
When you submit your articles using unique article wizard, article marketing robot etc. your articles get published at wordpress sites or wordpress article directories, when it happens the page where your article gets published automatically pings the page/post it links to (the page you are building backlinks to), if you don’t know what pingback is, Google it.
Now, it is obvious that not all of them will get indexed, but you can get them indexed by linking to them. In order to do it, you are going to need The Indexing Tool and Trackback plugin. Here is an example:
Last time I submitted an article using article marketing robot, I got over 150 trackbacks, what trackback plugin does here: it collects and puts them into one feed, like this: http://www.bestarticlesubmitter.net/trackbackfeed
And the indexing tool will get those links indexed by linking to them. For more information check this url.
Part 2: RSS Submission:
Unique article wizard doesn’t give the list of published articles but article marketing robot does, LiveLinks feature of AMR will let you get the list of your published articles’ URLs as XML Feed file, Microsoft Excel and text file.
Here is an example: http://www.elegantthemesreview.net/LiveLinks123.xml
Now… what next?
Next, submit these (both trackbackfeed and livelinks) using RSS Submitter software. Which software to use? Big Mike’s RSSBot can do what you need. Use this discount code for 50% off: XMASBOT
ATTENTION: This discount coupon code will expire soon, if you want to buy RSSBot, do it now.
***************
Why bother getting The Indexing Tool if you are using ONLY Article Marketing Robot?
AMR’s livelinks feature is cool, but it has some problems… Problem is, it WILL give you the list of URLs but that list won’t contain ALL, especially with WP directories, it is having problems with collecting the urls.

Great post. I have a question – I use AMR and I use RSSBot too. When I request livelinks RSS XML in AMR, it spits out detailed html code on a browser page. I cant seem to find where I get a nice clean link like your: http://www.elegantthemesreview.net/LiveLinks123.xml How do I get a link like that with all the articles in it from AMR?
Brad,
Upload that xml file to root folder or subfolder inside your website, examples: site.com/livelinks.xml or site.com/rss/livelinks.xml
then open it using any browser.
There is something that I need clarification on and hope to get an advice on this. If I use AMR to link to a Web2.0 site for example squidoo, can the indexing tool still work? How can it collect trackbacks/pingbacks in this case?
Indexing tool works with wordpress sites only,
Steve.
Steve,
Can I use hostmyrss to bundle those livelinks via plain text format into an rss feed and submit the feed to rss directories?
Sonny,
Yes you can.
Hi Steve,
Bought RSSbot yesterday but could not use the discount coupon. download the XML Rss feeds for my submission using AMR and loaded into RSSbot, it submitted a number but got error for a large percentage, is this because the RSS feed url was from my C drive? Any way despite this I got on pay one for my keyword, and that’s within 6 hours of submitting feed url
NB still waiting for response from you regarding your bonus material for my AMR purchase
Thanks
Coupon code has expired,
I’d recommend uploading the XML file to your website and use the url to that file when using RSSBot, don’t use the url from your C drive, it is nonsense and your feed will not be submitted.
Just upload the file and use the URL to that file as RSSFeed URL, ok?
Just replied to your email,
Steve
Hi Steve,
Thanks for response. My websites are all wp blogs, how will the rss feed work in this case,i.e. how do I load it into wp?
Thanks
Philip
Philip,
Just upload the file to your server, that is it.
ok, I’m working on it. I will let you know how it goes.
Very handy information Steve thanks heaps. Have always struggled to get my head around all this stuff and it’s well worth the effort reading articles like this. Great contribution to the IM world.
This is great! I am trying to get my own Article Directory off the ground. This helps!
Good information on how to get your backlinks indexed. I am constantly building backlinks everyday and did not know that you have to index the backlinks to make them count. The tools you recommend seems to be able to do the job well. I’ll have a look at those tools in a while.
I cant get enought of your writing!
