Have you heard about the new Ezine Articles WordPress Plugin?
People who use WordPress as their blogging platform, do so for many reasons, one being that it has the unique capability of utilizing a variety of WordPress plugins that can do very powerful things — and all for free! Well, this new Ezine Articles WordPress Plugin doesn’t disappoint either. It’s powerful and a great time saver.
I had the advantage of testing the article directory’s WordPress plugin in Beta and while it was first quite “buggy”, I looked forward to the day when they worked out the kinks, because I saw the potential in a plugin that you could use to submit articles directly to Ezinearticles.com. It simply cuts down on the step of opening another tab, logging into Ezine Articles, and copying, editing, and pasting my articles for submission.
So now the new version of the ezine articles WordPress plugin is released, and I honestly feel that it was worth the wait. This is how it works…
<== This is the control panel that you will see in the top right hand corner of the admin area of your blog. You write a blog post like you would normally would and use this to select the options you need to make for submission.
1. Pick your article category
2. Choose your pen name
3. Select and/or customize your resource box
4. You can choose to use the first two sentences of your article as the summary or you can edit it.
5. You can choose to use your post tags as the tags for the article over at EA.
6. If you are a premium member, you can choose to make a scheduled release of your article, otherwise it will publish once approved by the editorial team.
7. You can press the validate button (I love this feature:) to check and make sure that your content is suitable for submission. This will really cut down on reasons why editors would kick-back your article and get you published that much faster.
8. Then you click submit and you’re done.
What also makes this plugin a great time saver is the fact that after you’ve done that, you can tweak the article (add your affiliate links etc.) and somewhat refresh or rewrite the article and submit to your blog as a totally separate article. All during the same writing session.
So now that the bugs are all worked out, I highly recommend using this plugin to seamlessly submit your articles to EzineArticles.com. You will wonder what you ever did without it.

These are great WordPress resources – I actually just started digging into a really really solid book on WordPress 3.0. It’s got some really nice code samples, and is written by a few pro WordPress developers (including some from Envato). I’m actually giving away 2 copies of the e-book on my site – check out the details about the e-book and the giveaway here – I think you’ll dig it : http://bit.ly/lq20Ff

Hi Robert,
This is not MY plugin, this is one that was created by EzineArtices that I’ve reported on a little in this article. It can help make the submission process very seamless. Enjoy!

This site has given me an overview if I can use same articles with my website and my blogs. Thank you so much
You’re so welcome. Thanks for reading:)
I think this plugin only works with ezinearticles. Is there any plugin available with the help of which we can submit article to major article directories?
Thanks Lisa!
You gave me the right advice at the right moment
All the best, Mike
Absolutely Mike – have a fantastic 2012!
Thanks, I read your previous article on if it’s okay to submit your blog posts to ezine and stumbled on to this post. Makes life so much easier with this plugin.
Thanks Lisa,
I was wondering how the ezine article plugin would get around get around submitting duplicate content. I was a bit weary about that.
Now that I understand it, I think I will be utilizing this plugin.
Thanks a lot Lisa,

Hi Jeremy,
Yes, duplicate content is an issue, especially post-Panda updates but a few tweaks here and there should get the job done. I’ve never had a problem with it. Thanks for stopping by.

Wow! great article Lisa. I have been looking for a plugin to save me time on posting to Ezine Articles. It’s awesome that we are able to (modify our articles) after we post them, not to mention the option to – add some revenue to it. Thank you.
