Writing Articles

Writing articles is one of the best ways to promote your website/blog, or any offers you want… The best part of it is that it is FREE. Also you don’t need to be an expert…. just pick the subject of your interest, do a bit of research, and voila! before you know it, you will have enough of knowledge on that subject, to let you write freely.

Once you have finished writing your article, it is time to submit it to article directories. If you do a search you will find hundreds. I’ll list down some of which got me very good results:

Isnare
Article Marketer
Article City
Article Dashboard
Article Directory
Ezine Articles
Go Articles
Idea Marketers
Internet Home Business Articles
Search WarpBe careful to follow the formatting instructions for each article directory. Most directories require articles to be submitted with no formatting. It will save you time if you create an unformatted article with no hard line breaks (apart from between paragraphs) in a text document. It also helps to prepare a short description of your article along with your keywords as some directories also require this information to be submitted with the article.

Also, don’t forget to include a resource box at the end of your article. This is your chance to tell everyone about you and your website and what you offer. If someone has taken the time to read your article to the end, there are very high chances, that they will be interested in finding out more. It is your opportunity to gain another targeted visitor to your site.

If you think you don’t have the time to manually submit your site to all of the article directories, you may want to consider paying someone to do it for you. There are many sites/services that offer that, but personally, I think that the most comprehensive and offers real value for your money out of them, is Article Marketer. Another two good sites, are Opportunity Update and Submit Your Article.

You can also alternatively use softwares to automate your submission:

Instant Article Submitter: This one is a very famous submitter… one of the best out there and got lots of features into it. “Amazing Breakthrough Software Stuffs Any Website You Want Full Of Free Targeted Traffic.”

Ezine Announcer: Submits all your articles and ezines. A great software that saves you a lot of time.

Article Post Robot: Submits your articles automatically to over 240 article directories and over 50 announcement lists.

Article Announcer: Auto submit your articles to all article directories, ezine owners and announcer lists.

In case you don’t want to write your own articles, you may use the Viral Article Toolkit. You get with it 199 rebrandable articles, which you may choose and publish with your own personal resource box. You may also change/edit these articles in any way you like to personalize them, or you can leave them as they are.

Another option is to pay someone to write you professional articles, with reasonable price. Just Articles provides you with such service. Hope you find these resources helpful.
