A Transcript of... Submitting Articles To Article Directories |
|
Submitting Articles to Article Directories Once you've written your article, you should put it away for a while then read over it again. However, once you know that your article conveys your message in the way you wanted it to, you are ready to start submitting it to the article sites. These sites may be called article banks or article directories -- and each one has it's own rules for submission. First, be prepared. Most of the sites will require you to register, which is free. You should probably make a document that you can copy and paste from with your name, address, telephone number, email address, business name, and website address, as well as the username and password that you would like to use. You can also use software, such as Roboform at www.roboform.com . Be sure to read the submission guidelines for each site before you submit your first articles. Some allow any number of article submissions, while others will only allow one or two article submissions per week. Some article sites will not allow submissions that are done with software. It is important to follow the guidelines, or you have the potential for getting banned from the site completely. Most of the article banks will publish your article in its entirety on their site, while others will only link to your article, which must be on your own website. You will again need a copy and paste file, or robo form to fill out the forms for submission on each site. You will find that typing in the same information over and over becomes quite tedious. It's much easier to copy and paste or have software fill in most of the information for you. Then, you simply copy and paste in your headline, subheadline, the body of the article, and your author's resource box information. Some of the sites will store your author's information for you, and you may need to alter this for different articles that are related to different products or websites. You will receive a lot of email after you submit articles. You may want to consider getting a separate email account for this mail, but make sure that you can access that email account, because when you register for the first time at these sites, you may need to confirm your registration. So, which article directories should you submit to? Some people say the more the merrier, and a quick search on Google will allow you to fund hundreds of sites. At this point the top three are probably Ezine Articles, Go Articles, and Article City. Submit your articles to those sites, and then as many more as you like. Below, you will find a comprehensive list of some of the better article sites on the Internet. There are literally hundreds of sites, but these are the ones you should start with.
