Generally Blog articles produce for publishing on blog. And behind this there maybe various purposes such as, frequent blog update, diverting traffic, attracting advertiser, reference, promotional material and a lot more.
But blogger can easily spread their voice by syndicating their article. Many of you may think what is syndicate? I think bookish definition is useless if you don�t understand. So I am giving an example. We see show on TV, some are live and some are from achieve. Those show broadcast second time on television then we can say it comes from Achieve.
Similarly, in case of article you can republish in some website where you can easily divert traffic or build your own community. In this case you don�t have to give extra effort because you are just republishing your post after publishing it on your blog or website.
There are 3 ways you can syndicate your blog. Those are as follows
- Free or Bartered Blog Syndication
- Ad-supported Blog Syndication
- Licensed Blog Syndication
But as a blogger I will focus on Free or Bartered Blog Syndication where we can republish our article in another site.
There are many website those who re-publish others article in exchange of little charges. But I won�t go for any paid service. As a blogger I will share with you some free site where you can syndicate your article by republishing.
