Three Things You Must Do Before You Submit To Article Directories

To all writers and non-writers out there, now is the time to start digging up those creative writing skills.With modern communication technology comes the popularity of information-based marketing, which is one of the oldest and most effective techniques in getting targeted prospects to sites and converting them into buyers. This is

Yes and no.

First off: a warning: never submit any articles to any directories if you are going to have the article hosted on your own web site.

You will find that your web site will stop showing in the search engine rankings because the search engines will assume that the articles you submit belong to the article directories, not to you, since the article directories generally have a higher pagerank than you do, and are spidered more frequently. This will generally result in the search engines assuming the article originated with the article directory rather than your own web site, and your web site will not be ranked highly for that page. If you have a lot of pages that fall under this penalty (sometimes know as the duplicate content penalty), your web site will eventually simply not show in search engine rankings.

Now, to the question at hand: can you submit the same articles to multiple directories.

In theory, the answer is no...the search engines will flag all but one of the articles as duplicate content, and they won't give you credit for the inbound link.

In reality...if you submit the same article to 150 article directories within a short period of time, for example 2 days, you will probably find that you not only get about 50 new inbound links from the article directories themselves, but also some inbound links from web sites which choose to host your article on their web site, as a result of finding your article on an article directory.
