If you decide to submit articles to increase business exposure, there are a few things you could do to be successful.
Article directories have guidelines that need to be followed, and you have to check those before creating accounts and setting to work. The idea is to see what kind of links they accept and you learn how to use the specific context into your advantage. Anchor text links are the best of all, although simple URLs are more commonly used.
All article directories have duplicate filters that make sure that you only use original materials for distribution. Don’t submit articles that you’ve used before: whether on on other directories or on your website, because you won’t get distribution approval for them.
If you include too many links to your website in the article content, you also lower the chances of approval. Keep in mind that if you submit articles, you’d better get them distributed efficiently, or you waste money and time for nothing. Two links at the maximum for the author resource box and two for the article content, if accepted, will be more than enough. Directories that accept anchor text links are the best to work with.
It is a great idea to work with those directories that already have a great reputation on the market. Search for a top ten of article directories, and create accounts with those. The number of article directories continues to grow every day, but it is difficult to get accounts with all of them. The management of multiple accounts will be eased a lot if you use a software tool for automatic distribution, but only if article submission takes too much of your time to be efficient.
Don’t give your personal email address in the author resource box, because you’ll get a lot of unsolicited mail. Get a separate email account to only use for such situations. You don’t have to give an email address, the website URL should be enough for most users.
Last but not least, you should pay attention to submit articles in the right category. The first purpose of such submissions is to have the materials further distributed across the web as other websites will publish content. Use your name and individual account for manual submission, because of the higher efficiency rate for re-publication.
