I tried Spin Distribute months ago and the results weren’t that great probably because I chose 2 very competitive terms to get backlinks for.
So I tried them one more time, but this time around I chose some terms that were a bit easier to get rankings for.
The test was for one of those XFactor type sites which are supposed to be sites that target one keyword that allegedly gets lot of searches according to Google KW Tool.
- I got an exact match domain name (for the keyword being targeted)
- I ordered Spin Distribute’s complete servicing package which writes 10 articles and syndicates them for you to their private network.
What you’ll see if/when you use Spin Distribute is your rankings will increase slowly but surely as each new article gets syndicated for you. My experience with this service is that rankings for the site will increase a day or two after you get an email from them saying,
“new article completed…”
The history of this test of Spin Distribute’s article writing/syndication/link building service:
Week 1
- Day 1- New domain registered, blog set up and optimized
- Day 3 – Article written and published for this one-page site
- Day 5- Complete package option ordered via Spin Distribute
Weeks 2 and 3-
- 3 days later after ordering the package from Spin Distribute, I check to see if site is indexed, (yes it was) and was on page 7 for the term “bosch dishwasher”
- 2 articles later, site is page 6
- 2 articles later, site is page 5
- 2 articles later site is page 4
- 2 articles later site is page 3
- 2 articles later site is page 3
UPDATE: Today, page 4 for a term that’s of medium competition, and majority of links were going to exact match domain name
NOTE: Spin Distribute’s sales letter says you’ll get all copies of their spun articles, so if you get 10 articles written for you, the assumption here is you’ll also get 10 unique articles and their spun versions available to you for download.
This is not the case. But you will be able to download 10 articles after they’ve been syndicated.
I just wanted to clear that up in case you were interested in getting this service for the purpose of getting 10 articles written and spun for you then doing with it what you want, like using them elsewhere.
The articles are well-written and Spin Distribute went above and beyond with their service by getting backlinks to not just the main domain url I specified but also to the post url that comprised the one-page site this site is (hope that makes sense!)
Is Spin Distribute recommended? Yes and No…
No, not if you want to get ranked quickly for highly competitive terms
Yes, if you have Xfactor or Sniper sites that have medium to low competition SEO-wise
Tips for using Spin distribute:
For medium to low level competition terms, this service works well and is pretty much hands-free site promotion. However, you should consider using these articles they wrote for you on your sites or as content pieces for your link wheels.
To get 10 well-written articles would cost you $50.00
To get 10 well-written articles written and submitted for you for $85.00 is a good deal
To be able to re-use these 10 articles elsewhere like on your site or on your link wheel spokes or even by popping them into Unique Article Wizard is a good way to use this service, too. Maybe not priceless value but still good value, because most niche marketers need articles written for them and some SEO promotion, too if they’re going to get all their sites churning out affiliate commissions or adsense clicks
Who should get this?
- People with XFactor or Sniper sites with low competition terms and niches
- For sites that have exact match domain names
- People who hate writing and are into making link wheels
- People who are patient enough to wait a month or two for results
- People who fully intend to re-purpose the articles written for them by Spin Distribute
Questions to ask:
Is it worth 85 dollars to get these articles written and submitted for you? YES
Is it worth 85 dollars to get page 3-4 rankings for medium competition terms? Not really
Is it worth getting? Yes, if you see the value in getting “seed” articles written for you for use elsewhere, like adding them to link wheels spokes or to put them in a service like EZArticleLink and let them spin those seed articles for you and distribute them some more.

Daniel, good review and great suggestions. You mention Ez article link, I have never created a folder with my host, but i have looked at the directory. Since my account is a WP host account will adding a folder screw up the existing install? and does this EZ system auto feed the new posts? I’m a bit lost in the application.
In WP I’m use to seeing new posts look like folders like: abc.com/new post
If you can, please a bit more insight into this process.
Thanks…

Hey Ric, good question… I had the same questions. Since the folder/directory is new, the index.php file they give you only affects that folder so no, it doesn’t screw up your existing main wordpress index.php file
EZArticleLink auto-adds the new content to your site and these directories/folder/articles aren’t seen by your normal blog visitors, but they are seen by the search engines. EZArticleLink recently made some of the changes I suggested they make to their system, and supposedly will be getting 100s of backlinks to each and every article published.
Now that I’ve finished my Spin Distribute review, I’m going to test out my idea for using these SpinDistribute articles on EZArticleLinks network. THOSE results might take a month to be seen due to the nature of the EZArticleLink system and network
Well your site is actually on page 1 now but I wonder how much of that is really the result of Spin Distribute. I’ve been doing the same thing with exact match domains and getting page 1 results with no backlinks at all.
By the way, your adsense ads aren’t showing up on that site. Looking at the source code, it’s says pub-YOUR 16 DIGIT PUB ID WOULD GO HERE and the ad channel is saying google_ad_channel = “(10 digit channel number)”.
You might want to fix that so you can make a few bucks from those ads.
Hey Dan, Spin distribute got me to page 4, but with only 5 articles it seems, not 10 like I thought. I was going by the number of emails they sent me not what was actually verifiable in the back office.
So what I did was put these 5 articles into ezarticlelink and about 6-9 days later that site got to page 1. EZArticleLink was the power here, not Spin Distribute, but the point here is that the tandem of getting 10 or even 5 articles written and distributed and made available for repurposing is a pretty good deal/method.
I don’t think spin Distribute is that great, and the real value to the service they provide is getting articles written AND syndicated.
I’ll fi the site you’re talking about something this week, just waiting for higher SERPs before Adsense gets turned on
I tried Spin distribute with no luck at all.. I released 5 articles and only one of them got any backlinks.. the others did not get picked by any articles for some reason.. I do write alot of articles from time to time and have always spinned mainly using UAW with good results.. There is something about Spin Distribute that did not work for me.. I am keeping an eye on them to see if anyone else has any luck with them..
I have tried spindistribute and I have not been very happy with it. The problem is that the article directory which they have has article websites which are down or don’t exist. It is therefore not worth it to put up your articles for them to distribute.

Thanks for the info!! I just put my first article on Spin Distribute and was somewhat leary about the article directories they listed. I may just focus on continuing with ArticleRanks and UAW – although I am not sure just how effective these two will be as I landed in the middle of Google page 2 right from the get go. I have been submitting articles to these two sites along with hand submissions to the top 10 article directories for the past 5 weeks and am hopeful I will land on page one sometime in the next month or two. I am also looking into profile links as well as .edu link services – but not sure just how effective they will be.
Great blog!!
Thanks!
Dave
I have very bad result with Spin Distribute. No backlinks, 80% of article directories are expired or parked domains, sites with errors, hacked sites or abandoned sites.
If you want to spend your money on bogus article distribution, go ahead. But, wait! Try to donate your money to some real projects or charity, instead.
Good points Sven, I’ve tried sponsoring some guest blogging contests and it’s brought some new readers and some quality backlinks too
