Ime half way through makeing a new section to my website that will allow anyone to exchange articles,this is how it will work when completed-i will have 10 of my own articles on a certain page then some categories for other articles that are exchanged.
So if someone wants me to add there article to my pages then they have to add my article to theres.if someone wants two articles added then they have to add one of mine and one from the article categories,if some one wants three added then they add one of mine and two from the article directories and so on,and when someone adds an article from the members directory the owners of the articles will be emaild with the link to view there article.each time an article is added to another site we will place a number at the side of the article in the directory (15) this will show how many times this article has been exchanged and the top 3 articles will be displayed on our main article exchange page..

Would love some input on what Evryone thinks about this & will it work?

No way to know if it will 'work' without knowing how the software is set up.

You may attract some interest if yours is a niche site, but if you are setting up a general article farm, you've rather missed theboat - there's many hundreds, probably thousands out there, all doing the exact same thing.

They all 'work' - some look quite impressive - but there's a big question mark over who (if anyone) benefits in any way ... except kids cheating on their schoolwork ;)

And do they really benefit in the long term? I seriously doubt it.

I fully agree with Quadrille

So many are trying to attract traffci by building article banks which have no value at all, since they offer duplicate content. This bubble will soon be over, since they do not make any money from Adsense.
