3 months ago I started using pen names for my article writers. For my travel site my writer might be named james hilton so when people search for hilton hotels my site comes up in the rankings. This last week the latest buzz on yahoo has a hip hop artist that is #1 up 400% for the week.

Funny thing is my site comes up high on a few search engines (all but google) when you put her name on it. Her name is not famous yet but soon will where I will have to change it but I will take the free traffic as it comes. She is a writer for my dating site which will soon have a link to hip hop ringtones or something similiar. Free traffic got to love it. This is not something james teaches or do I recommend it but the theory that I have and use can be used as a free traffic source and tarffic never hurts. This was a 3 month plan on my behalf as a test that is working better than expected. Now i wouldnt go out and name my articles written by paris hilton but you get the idea.

Very interesting, and I can't think of any reason the search engines would have a problem with it. (First thought when someone suggests the "latest" trick they've discovered.)

Question though - do you only add the pen names when submitting to article sites or do you put the "author's" name on your site as well?

I'm having the same problem. Since last week Inktomi visits me 1-3 per DAY and I'm doing fantastically well on most of my articles (no lower than page 3 that I've seen, some within top 5, even top slot for odd searches.. lol) but I've dropped off the face of Google. I guess after the last indexing they didn't like my site anymore.. hopefully just temporary for both of us!

The pen names only go on my site. I write different articles for pad technique. I dont take no chances of duplicate copy.
