Hi Tony,

There are several answers to your question, I'll try to deal with the more important ones for the moment.

Ezine are one of the better article sites out there, there are others of-course such as Buzzle.com etc... The best way is to submit the same article  (word-for-word) to about 20 article sites and then search in Google for your article title wrapped in the quotes obv, this will show which sites Google penalises for duplicate content. Out of 20 I would say 5 - 8 may show before you have to click on the dup content brigade.

Now, one way to get around this is to have several works of your article ready for submission. try rewriting various paragraphs, if you have links in the body then change around the anchor text.

Staggering articles esp, if they are word-for-word won't do much to esacpe the content filters I'm afaraid. Best advice is rehash your work and don't over submit.

Which article sites would you use for the resubmissions of rewritten content? The big ones like ezine obviously won't accept dup content or rewritten content.

Would an article directory like ezine penalise you if it finds out you've submitted an article to them and then to lots of other directories once they've published it? Or do they never check once they've published??

Yeah....I agree with you. If once the article is approved or allowed for the submission, the statement coming from the Ezine itself shows there is no Dup content in the article and most of the SEO link building companies do the same. They first submit to the Ezine and then to other article directories..Hope it helps you.

Each article submission site has it's own rules and ways of checking but people should try press releases as well as article submission as these can be duplicate and usually are and they count as good links.
