Useful Tips for Effective Article Directory Submission

If you think you are good in writing articles, then your next activity is to submit them to article directories. This would not only increase back links on your blog but also a good source of income. Unlike submitting your blog to blog directories, article submission is quite harder and time consuming but definitely worth to spend. This is because there are a lot of factors to be considered before doing such, and here are some of them:

Correct spelling and grammar. This is very important since your articles will be submitted to quality publishers that are very strict in terms of spelling and grammar. Although there are article directories or marketers that will check them and inform you, there are those that will not. If a certain article directory is not strict, then it has a low standard and you will not benefit from them.

Appropriate article title. This is the first item you should be careful of simply because this will be the teaser of your article. An attractive title will definitely be advantageous over a less attractive one; even they have almost the same idea in content. Besides not using all capital letters and exclamation point for your title, using relevant keywords is very essential.

No affiliate links. Although there are some article directories that allow affiliate link on your resource box, it is better that you do not put it anywhere in your article submission. This may scare your article readers because they are not interested to buy anything. They are just there to view your article and be informed by its content. Anyways, you you can always provide a link to your blog and your blog will be the one to show your affiliate link.

Re-write your articles. This is not usually being mentioned by article directories but it is better if you do so. Re-writing your article means changing some words including the title and arrangement of sentences but maintaining the original content. This is because search engines do not like duplicate content. Even if your article has been posted everywhere, search engines will only consider only one. You cannot imagine a google page with articles that has the same title and content.

Articles can only be high quality if they are being approved by highly article directories.
