I got my EzineArticles.com account back after it was suspended due to an article I’d written using Private Label Articles. I explained what had happened in a previous blog posting and I emailed the Editorial team. I was honest and apologised for my error so they were happy to give me back my EzineArticles account.

My EzineArticles.com account was suspended yesterday.

Last week, I opened the account and submitted an article which was reviewed and published. Yesterday, I tried logging into my account only to find out it had been suspended.

I did the usual thing and sent an email to find out why the account had been suspended. I got an email saying my second article looked exactly like another article so it looked like I didn’t have exclusive rights to the article.

The article in question was sourced from a Private Label Articles site that I belong to. I did modify the article before I submitted it.

Unfortunately for me, I should have read the Editorial Guidelines thoroughly which specifically said don’t use Private Label Articles because of the fact that a lot of other people will use the same articles.

Anyway I explained to EzineArticles.com my side of the story and as of now my case is pending so I don’t know if I will be reinstated or not.

My advice to anyone thinking of publishing articles is to read the Editorial Guidelines thoroughly to know what can be published. It might save you the hassle of getting your account suspended.

I started the OnlineGist blog in July and have really enjoyed sharing my adventures into the Internet business world. My unique visitors have improved every month and I will be hoping to beat Sept figures below this month.

Also I am looking to add some images, tags this month to make the blog interactive and more reacheable.

Thanks for stopping by to read my daily ramblings and hope you will be back for more.

Here are my Unique Visitors

Sometimes, being an internet entrepreneur might feel lonely especially when you think of the amount of work required to put your income generating systems in place. But it shouldn’t be and I have come across a good site that offers advice on personal development for smart people like us internet entrepreneurs.

Steve’s site is filled with a lot of useful information on all aspects of personal development such as time management,motivation,overcoming procrastination,setting goals etc.

I actually make it a point to visit his site every day to inspire myself and pick up some tips for my internet business day ahead.

You can to the same too. Check Steve Pavlina’s site right here.

Do you find yourself inundated with information on the Net? I get totally confused sometimes with every internet guru in the land promoting search engine optimisation, traffic building, internet marketing, opt in lists, blogs, article writing, Google adsense and adwords to name a few.

And right now I am suffering from Information Paralysis. I get offered e-books, free reports every day of the week. I am sure some of the information is relevant to my internet business but I seriously ask myself the question, ‘How many e-books or free reports are you going to read?’

And to make matters worse some of the e-books are not cheap either so not only am I acquiring info that I might not necessarily read, but I am burning a hole in my pocket.

My goal right now is to look at material that I consider unique and relevant to my internet business and get rid of anything else that I don’t need or which I already have a similar copy of.

What about you?
