Selfgrowth.com - guest post opportunity or useless article site
-
Hello,
Is anyone familiar with if selfgrowth.com is safe to put an article on, or is it a useless article site?
Thanks.

It's certainly a safe site.
As with all article sites, its value has been diminished significantly. As far as article sites go, SelfGrowth is probably one of the better ones out there. I know when I've had a surplus of content on a previous site a few months back we used it. Rankings did increase, but it's not like we used SelfGrowth exclusively, so impossible to say there's correlation.
A link from there wouldn't likely hurt and might pass on a bit of 'link-juice', for lack of a better term. However, I'd only ever use it if you're overflowing with time-sensitive content that you don't have anywhere else to put. Other than that circumstance, I'd nearly always recommend doing some targeted outreach and getting your article onto a related blog in your niche.

Blogs that Link to Random Sites
Posting articles on the MyBlogGuest article gallery can lead to several sites offering to publish your guest post on their blog. However many of these sites will accept any guest post that links out to anything from socks to hotels. Would you avoid guest posting on these sites? (if it would take very little time to do)

Multiple submissions to article directories
Hello, I would like to ask if I can submit the same article to multiple article directories. I have read that while only the first published article will gain credit and show on search engines, but the all the links generated from the publishing the article at different sites will still tally up and count as separate backlinks to my website. Is this true, or is 1 or a few links going to be counted from the 1 article?
