Internet and Business Online

There are an ever increasing number of article directories springing up, attemting to take advantage of the popularity that has become of writing articles as a form of web promotion and have in the past even used a manual article submission service. What people can be unsure of however, is which of these sites to post their article to. In this article I write about the article directories which I use.

EzineArticles

The first directory that I ever posted an article to was the ever popular ezinearticles. It seems so long ago now, where in truth it was probably only around ten months ago. This directory was recommended to me by a friend who is a business cost reduction expert and he also sells front doors. In my opinion is certainly one of the best. Prior to being published on their site they conduct a review of the article to ensure that it meets their editorial guidelines – this is what makes this article marketing directory stand out from the crowd – well it is one of the things.

When you search for the title of your article a few days after it has been accepted in for example the search engine google, you are normally able to see it highly placed in the results. One of the first articles I submitted was called stuttering and its effects, this article is still placed in the top ten of google after many months.

If you are only planning on submitting your article to one directory this is the one I would advise that you use.

Goarticles

Many people, including a business contact who writes articles about obtaining cheap calls, have told me that they prefer to use goarticles when looking for an article to add to their site. For this reason alone, I always ensure that I submit my article to this directory.

Articlealley

The thing I like about articlealley is that they also include the article you submit to them on one or two of the sister sites. What is more you do not even have to do any additional work. Any extra exposure can only be a good thing of course.

Articledasboard

I been reading on some of the SEO forums that this particular directory could be the next “big thing”; I will keep my eye on its progress. The site has a page rank of six which is always a good sign.

Ideamarketers

This directory is my fifth choice in order of merit and has many interesting articles.

It is hard to know how many of these directories people should be submitting their article to. I have been given lots of different advice on this subject and have decided to come up with my own conclusion. I personally normally submit my articles to around twenty of these sites but always the five above.

EzineArticles

Ezinearticles was where I posted my very first article. It has only been around a year but I have to say that it seems like about five years. This directory was recommended to me by a friend who offers online guitar lessons such as the drifting guitar lesson and in my opinion is certainly one of the best.

Are you interested in web promotion and web marketing? Have you discovered the power of article marketing yet? Would you like to increase the amount of visitors to your website? Are you eager to make yourself a whole heap of cash from your website. Now I am not sure how you have answered these questions, however I would have answered yes to all of them. Taking my last eight years of experience, I truly believe that writing articles is one of the best, if not the best forms of promoting a website and in this article I am going to write about what in my opinion are the best five article marketing websites to submit your articles to.

I have been writing articles for eighteen months and I must say that I aim to continue writing more articles as a way of promoting my own websites for many more years to come. This is because it has done wonders for my own sites and also because it is a form of free web marketing. I would strongly advise any person who is looking to gain more traffic to their sites to commence writing articles asap. As a rule I attempt or have a goal to write an average of one article per day. On certain days when I have more time or when I am in the mood for it, I write a lot more than just one, my record thus far has been seven in one day.

In every day life I am involved with various products including DVD replication and a service offering cheap calls.

In first place and my most favourite of all of the article marketing websites is Ezinearticles. It is important to be clear about their guidelines when submitting to this site as they do not accept any old rubbish, which of course has to be a good thing.

I also submit to articlealley, articledashboard, goarticles and ideamarketers.

Searchwarp used to be a favourite of mine however no longer appears in the top five.

One other article directory which I have heard is very good is buzzle. I have yet to submit to this site but am likely to in the near future.
