However, we have seen success with posting the same (duplicate) article to various social media sites and article directories also - it just depends on your strategy. If you are just looking to build up the ranking of a particular page on your website, then your external articles don't always have to be unique (depending on the sites you are posting on, as many sites require that your article be unique), you just need to make sure that your article sticks. At the end of the day, you want articles linking back (with the right anchor text) to the web page that you want to rank - but you want to be sure that the articles linking back won't be slapped, either by the search engines, or the sites you are posting on themselves. Sites like Hubpages, and Squidoo will require all articles to be unique and they won't accept duplicate content.. however, you can get away with posting duplicate content on quite a few article directories and social media sites. WP MU blogs are also great for posting duplicate content linking back, and google seems to regard links from WP MU blogs highly. Something to think about. I hope this helps!
