After you finish writing your article and decide to submit to the articles directories, make sure you run a spelling check, and check what format is required plain text, html or both. Add a resource box and list your website URL. List your URL both way wrapped and the link itself. Some of the articles directories stripped hyperlinks that are wrapped.

When you submit your articles to Ezines check their publishing guidelines, since they differ from those at the articles directories. Find out what are their guidelines, before you submit your articles. There are utilities to format articles or solo ads for submitting to Ezines the best one I found to be Ezy Ezine Ad Formatter.

How To Get Free Targeted Traffic Using Articles

No doubt that the number one method to get free traffic to your website is by writing and submitting articles to the article directories. Article writing is probably a favorite way of generating traffic. Article marketing has the ability to make your site highly popular not only to the general public, but also the major search engines.

The advantage of writing and submitting the articles is that you can control the contents and the titles of the pages it is published on. If you go to any article directory and click on an article, then you will notice that the title of the page is the title of the article. So, if you write your title correctly containing all your relevant keywords, you just acquired links with your keywords in the title of the page. That helped the power of the link. But, if you manage to get your keywords of keywords phrases in the content of your article then you just made your article more stronger.

For this method to work you must consistently saturate the web with your articles, one article a week won't do the job. If you can't write or you think that you can't keep up by writing articles or don't have the time , there are a ghostwriters that will do the job for you. You can join a membership sites that will provide with the articles you need. Be aware that when submitting your articles is imperative that you include a resource box with your URL or a back link to your website.
