Probably the most well known article submission service is Unique Article Wizard (UAW). The service can submit your articles to thousands of different article directories and blogs and is one of the most efficient ways to build backlinks to your sites. Is UAW the best article submission service? Well continue reading my Unique Article Wizard review to find out.
For each article submission you do with Unique Article Wizard, you need to prepare 1 article and 2 rewrites. The exact method UAW uses to rewrite your articles is secret, but I can say it’s a pretty simple process. Creating 3 articles might seem like it would be a tedious process, but there is a shortcut. Since Unique Article Wizard supports spin ready articles, you can actually just submit the same spun article three times, and it should go through no problem.
The inteface for submitting your articles is pretty easy to use. I personally use the One Step Wizard as it’s the method I’m most comfortable with. So to submit your article, you just need to enter in a title, your 3 article variations, your resource box, and your categories. The place where you add your links is in the resource box.
The best way to prepare your articles for submission to Unique Article Wizard is to use this cool site called Spinner Tools. It will create for you a level-1 spun article that will always output the same number of paragraphs. This article can then be input directly into UAW.
Compared to other backlink networks, Unique Article Wizard has the largest network of blogs to post to. Most categories usually have around 200-300 blogs that can be posted to. This is actually a lot fewer blogs then it used to post to when you could regularly get 800-1000 submissions. This is the result of a cleanup they did of many of the lower quality blogs in the network that they used to have. So I consider this a good thing.
UAW allows you to drip feed your submissions so your articles don’t get posted all at once. This helps keep your link building efforts looking natural and makes sure you don’t raise any flags with Google.
Unique Article Wizard vs AM Automation (AMA)
Although Unique Article Wizard is a little more expensive then AMA, I find I get much better results with it. AM Automation just doesn’t have the same number of blogs as UAW does. I rarely get more than 20 submissions for each article I post to AMA while UAW can blast that many out in one day. It is easier to submit article using AMA and you don’t need to wait for anyone to approve your articles before they go out.
Unique Article Wizard vs SEOLinkVine
SEOLinkVine is a backlink network started by Brad Callen. On the surface it looks similar to AMA/MAN but it actually features a number of improvements. First of all, it has its own unique network of blogs. Although it’s a newer article submission service, the number of blogs in the network is quite impressive and could rival UAW over time. The interface is quite nice and includes some cool visualizations to see the stats of your submissions. Read my full SEOLinkVine review to learn more about it.
Which Backlink Network Should You Choose?
If you are seriously trying to get your sites to rank in the first page of Google, you definitely need to incorporate at least one of these backlink networks into your link building process.
As part of the Link Building Lab, we’ve been doing some really extensive case studies on all the popular backlink networks out there, including Unique Article Wizard.
In our tests so far, Unique Article Wizard is still one of the best networks for distributing your articles to the most number of blogs. This is huge as both backlink quantity (and quality) play a large part in helping your search engine rankings.
If you can afford the $67/month cost, then I would definitely recommend using Unique Article Wizard. It’s been a solid link building service for a long time now, and it still works. Plus, it continues to have the most blogs to post your links on and you will definitely see some nice results if you use it.

Thanks for the review. At the moment I’m trying to decide between seolinkvine and UAW.
My decision is starting to side with UAW because of what you have pointed out -UAW have a lot more blogs in the system per catagory to post to.
The downfall is the monthly subscription. Hopefully I can get something out of it soon to cover the expenses.
Hello,
Can anyone give an estimate as to how many Yahoo Site Explorer backlinks you are seeing from UAW after one article submission after one week.
(I realize that more backlinks will come later and that not all of them will be indexed right away etc.)
Thank you very much.
Jack
I doubt you would see much at all after one week. Besides many of the links not being indexed right away, Yahoo Site Explorer won’t pick up links that fast either.
Interesting review but you lost all credibility when you recommended SEOLinkvine lol. No honest person who knows what they are talking about would ever consider recommending SEOLinkvine
SEO Link Vine certainly is not perfect and there are certainly things that could be improved.
But I have no problems recommending it. I’ve been a user since it opened and at this moment, I have almost 45k approved articles in the system. As part of any link building strategy, it works fine.
I have been using UAW for about 6 months now but I have noticed that my articles are not being sent to as many directories as before.Have you noticed this?
Hey Josh. Thanks for the article. I’ve been hearing a lot of talk about these tools, and your information was very helpful.
I just wanted to point out that the comment above your last trashing SEOLinkvine is a spam post. I’ve seen the same comment word for word on other articles talking about SEOLinkVine. It leads me to believe it’s an angry or clueless competitor.
Unique Article Wizard itself might be good, but their customer service is insane. The worst I have ever experienced in fact. The guy named Adam (which I believe is the only person in that “company”, which only works on weekends as far as I understood) Have replied to my complaint on his delayed reply in extremely rude and unprofessional manner ending up calling me an IDIOT for no reason. Then he deleted my account at UAW without any request, refunded me money and that’s it. This guy certainly has some issues. Prepare to deal with this attitude whoever is considering this “company”.
Thanks for your write up on UAW. I was almost sold but then I saw that right below your post you recommend Article Marketing Robot…is this better than UAW?
Yeah, I would probably recommend Article Marketing Robot over UAW these days.
Nice post-I did not know there is so much competition to UAW.
I have been using UAW for a while now. I was wondering how long it would be until I actually saw the results? Any inputs will be appreciated.
Unique article wizard is my favorite for article marketing. They have also implemented their social syndication platform for getting more likes, re-tweets, views and social juice to help rankings
