doogers is on the right pathdoogers is on the right path
article directories

I need some advice on article directories. I apologize if this has already been discussed hundreds of times but I just can't figure it out. I am trying to build more backlinks and submitting articles is one way that always comes up. However, when I go to the directories it always seems like you need to submit a long article. Is there a way to submit a paragraph of information, or does it always have to be a long article? I am not a good writer and am just starting my real estate career. Please help me out. Thanks

Well my friend try to write quality articles about your services, and do like 10 of them a day stay persistent, promote like hell! This is the key to success, just keep promoting, and if your not good with submitting articles and you have a lot of money I would highly suggest paying someone to do it for you, preferably someone seo related.

I'm not also a good writer but I make sure that my article is intreresting for readers. I think minumum number of words of your article must be 400+ words to be able to pass it to article directory.

Its not the question of number of words of your article.

Its all about information. How you would like to provide your service information to your visitors. Better the information grearter the chances of quality visitors. It will help you to promote your site steadily.

Yeah you're right it's not the number of words of articles. But to be able to give your readers an interesting article, article reviewer accept 400+ words of an article. How would you provide your readers a good article if you're just submitting a short paragraph or short article?

If you feel 400+ words is not sufficient to provide all the information then write

400+1 then
400+1+1...

Feel free to promote your service, spreading information regarding your service. But maintain the quality.

Article directories are one way to get content published, but you may find that you can do better getting published on quality content sites. I publish original content from several writers. Because I publish in a niche market (IT support) the traffic generated is targeted and writers of those kinds of articles benefit from good traffic generated directly off my site and from secondary traffic as a result of bookmarking.

You may want to look at content publishers related to your business and try to find opportunites to develop a relationship with. As a publisher I benefit from getting high quality free content and my writers benefit from the exposure and a good backlink (PR5 or 6 depending on Google's mood). Plus a very long shelf life. Because it is original content with continuous exposure it continues to get traffic as long as it remains relevant. I have year old articles that are still generating 5000+ hits a month. When one of my pages gets picked up by Digg it can spike the hits up over 10,000 in just a few hours, and virtually all of my content is on the major bookmark sites within hours of being published.

A lot of publishers will help you to improve the quality of the presentation if the topic is something that they like. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with submitting to article directories, but don't put all your eggs in one basket. Look around to see if there are niche publishers who can help you develop a more targeted audience for your content, and give you quality traffic, instead of big empty traffic numbers with a high bounce rate.

- It is really easy but you should master some tactics:
- write articles about 500 word for articles directories is the best.
- learn how to write for the web, it's totally different to write in print.
- write short sentences
- short paragraphs and every paragraph one idea.
- your structure of the article and collect of focus information is the most important part.
- here the source when you can build your article template : learn writing for the web: http://www.jessett.com/web_sites/usa.../content.shtml
