10,000 WordPress Plugin Downloads!
Submitting articles directly from the WordPress interface is simple for our 10,000+ members now using the WordPress plugin.
Earlier this week, we found out that the 10,000-download milestone for our WordPress plugin was within reach. That milestone was officially met late yesterday. We’re really excited for all the Expert Authors who have taken advantage of this feature. A big thanks goes out to the 10,000 members who made this possible. More authors than ever are using the WordPress plugin to easily repurpose new and existing blog posts right from their WordPress user interface.
If you’re a WordPress user and you want to expand the reach of your posts, here’s a refresher on how to download the WordPress plugin and make submitting to EzineArticles easier than ever.

If you’re a WordPress user, take a few moments to install this plugin and help us on our way to the 20,000 mark. The savings in time and effort will make you very glad that you did! Then, of course, submit some of your existing and/or new posts as articles today. Then stop back here and leave a comment to let us know what you think.
I apologize for the delay in my response. Your content must be unique to you which means 100% exclusively owned by you. This doesn’t mean you cannot repurpose that content and use it elsewhere.
As long as you own it, use it were you would like. My only suggestion to this is to put your name on it, wherever you post it.

My understanding is that Google does not look favorable on websites if the same content was submitted in different places.
Please give me you understanding.
