Three Things You Must Do Before You Submit To Article Directories

To all writers and non-writers out there, now is the time to start digging up those creative writing skills.With modern communication technology comes the popularity of information-based marketing, which is one of the oldest and most effective techniques in getting targeted prospects to sites and converting them into buyers. This is

One of the questions I often get about article marketing is where should the articles be submitted to. There are often two choices:

1) You can submit them to your own blog/website

2) You can submit them to article directories

Personally, I would submit my articles everywhere, even on forums. It doesn't matter. If you choose to rewrite them when you submit them to different places, then that is ok. Submit them everywhere to get maximum leverage out of each article.

While content is important, if there is no traffic, nobody is going to read it. So definitely look at building backlinks. You don't exactly need tons of content to get the spiders coming. But you do require tons of backlinks to increase your search engine rankings. And the more backlinks you have, the better off your website will be.

What I'd suggest is that for submissions to your own website, add your content in gradually on a weekly or fortnightly basis. This gives the search engine spiders fresh content to spider, so that will keep your search engine rankings high.

For article directories, I'd suggest submitting to the top directories. If you want to generate hundreds or even thousands of backlinks, then use an article submitter like Submit Your Article. Article Marketer is another submitter worth checking out. They will submit your articles automatically all around the web, giving you maximum exposure.

So that's my blueprint for submitting articles. And it's been generating a full-time income for me. Try it out and see how it works for you.
