Submitting your articles to article directories is one of the most effective forms of site promotion.
- They help you build authority status and credibility for your business.
- They help you build your brand.
- When you are trying to gain the first page of the search engines, it is more likely that your article will appear on the first page before your website will.
- The top article directories have a High PR (page rank) or quality score with the search engines and the links from these types of sites do a very good job of boosting your website up the rankings.
- Other bloggers and newsletter publishers search these article directories for content to publish on their own blogs and newsletters giving full credit back to the author and including a link to your website.
- Since these sites are so popular, and get thousands of visitors per month, they can help drive traffic to your website.
Below is a list of the top 25 article directories. There are literally hundreds out there and it would likely not be feasible to submit to them all, but I highly recommend you submit some to at least the top 10.
