Using an article directory to market your articles is a great way to get backlinks and additionally market your brand and image. One really negative thing you do not want to do is to send out a bunch of poorly written articles, or junk that does not make sense but links to your site. This usually backfires in the long run, and makes anyone reading it far far less likely to ever click on the link and visit your site.
No clicks = no conversions, for anything you might be trying to accomplish.
You will want to submit quality as well, as a lot of article directories have a manual screening process by which your article is read first prior to allowing it to publish. This results in a ton of spam and junk getting rejected – and your article too, if you do not take care when writing it. Keep in mind the target audience for your article for each article directory and it will help you write it in the best manner.
You should have a list of five to seven article directories to submit to for each article you write. In addition, if you get some software to assist you, you can spin each article into maybe 10 individual articles that are uniquely different and get more mileage out of each article. Basically “spinning” allows a computer to substitute sentences on output so it might have an A, a B and a C choice for each sentence.It will mix and match sentences randomly based upon the choices it has when you set it up.
The more articles you write and then publish on the net, the more backlinks you will get to your site. In addition, the quality article directories will have decent page rankings which is always a big help in and of itself. Some article directories are a hub for others looking for content for their sites, so you get additional mileage here as well.
