There are literally hundreds of article directories on the Internet, and you can open a free account with them all, some of the best ones to submit to include, ezinearticles.com and goarticles.com. Article directories are basically directories containing hundreds, and often thousands of articles written by business owners and webmasters like you.
Articles from these directories are used by webmasters and ezine editors who scour the directories to find suitable content for their visitors and subscribers. Along with your article, you have an Author Biography box. This ‘Bio’ box must be included with your article so you get credit for writing it. It is part of the agreement other webmasters and ezine editors must adhere to if they are to use your article. In the Bio box you can write a sentence or two about yourself and include a link directing the reader back to your website!
If you manage to write an informative and popular article, it could well be used on many websites and in many email newsletters! You will be getting your name out there, providing value in the article, establishing your credibility and name, getting a one-way link for it from your author bio box and finally, you can get some additional free traffic from your article if readers click on the link to your website! Not bad for writing a short and quick 400-500 word article on something that you have knowledge about.
When you submit your article to a directory, because of the link back to your website in your Bio box, you effectively, have created a one-way backlink! If your article is used by others as content, they have to keep the bio box intact and this means even more backlinks from other websites! Can you see how powerful this is as a link building strategy?
The main problem is, that it can take time to submit your article to the vast number of article directories out there. As a result most people only submit to one or two directories. If you could get your article on to hundreds of article directories, you effectively have hundreds of one-way backlinks and also more chance of your article being used!
Fortunately, there a lot of the work can be automated with software! I have reviewed some software at www.seofactory.co.uk and the best software reviewed actually allows you to submit articles to hundreds of article directories with a lot of the work automated!
