Write Articles for traffic and back links to your website

Submitting articles to free article websites are an excellent way to generate traffic and back links to your website. In this article I will show you some recommended article directories and some free article submitter software. Submitting articles works because every webmaster that reprints your article is required to publish your biography along with the article. In the biography or “about the author” section you write a little about yourself along with your website URL. First, you will need to write an original article about 300-600 words that is related to the subject of your website. Then submit your article to an article site for free traffic. Sounds easy? It is!

Here are some free article websites you can submit to that get a good amount of traffic:


1) http://www.zongoo.com/
2) http://www.articlehub.com/
3) http://www.articlewarehouse.com/
4) http://www.authorconnection.com/
5) http://www.contentdesk.com/
6) http://www.ezinearticles.com/
7) http://www.goarticles.com/
8) http://www.ideamarketers.com/
9) http://www.isnare.com/


Each free article website will have different rules regarding formatting and length of article so check with the author guidelines on each site. Submitting articles to various directories is certainly a good way to get free back links and traffic to your website. If your article is really good, it is possible to get millions of views. If you are only planning on writing a few articles, you may want to submit everything manually. If you would like to submit to many places, I would recommend using article submitter software. If you would like to start out without investing is the software, I have managed to find a few submitters that are free. I have listed the free article submitters below:

An additional resource to promote your articles is Yahoo Groups. This can help to achieve more traffic and back links as well. Join a yahoo group specifically for writers to post articles. Many people will want to read the articles because it answers a question and is interesting. In addition, many webmasters use the groups to find articles that they can publish on there own websites. When they publish your article, they will also publish your bio or signature with your website link in it. Here is a listing of Yahoo groups that are interested in writers posting there articles:

With article promotion, you will never need to worry about purchasing traffic again. The articles you submit will bring in traffic directly from the links on your articles. In addition, the back links you create will result in a higher position in the search engines increasing traffic as well.
