So you have decided to write articles as one of your marketing methods. Did you know that you can increase your website's search engine ranking by writing quality, keyword-rich content?

search engine robots scan the internet on a regular basis to find fresh contents. The more keywords you have that correlate to your website, the higher your website will appear when a potential customer performs a search for your product or service.

Once you have created your article, you will need to submit it to several article directories. You can do a search to find all the different directories out there. Beware of article blasting sites that promise to put your article on every website out there - this will probably not help your search engine rankings, as the robots do not pick those up. You want to manually submit each and every article you have. Yes, it can be time consuming, but it is worth it.

Check The Article Directories
Look at each article directory before you submit anything. Find out what types of articles they accept and take a look at their terms of service and guidelines. Are the articles of good quality and free of inaccuracies and spelling mistakes? If they are not, you may want to look elsewhere for your own submission. Most article submission sites are free of charge; but you will most likely have to create an account.

Another source for article submissions is online newsletters or ezines. Search for publications that are related to your product or service. Contact the publisher and ask them how frequently they publish and what their subscriber count is. Ask them for a copy of their latest issue. You want to make sure that you are submitting to a reputable ezine with quality content. Ezines that are full of ads are probably not going to get you a lot of response. Find out how long they have been publishing. Where do they rank in the search engines? The higher they rank, the more chance of your articles' keywords being picked up as well.

At the end of each of your articles, you will need to create a resource box. This is where the reader can find out a little bit more about you and your business. It will include your name, email and website address. Readers who want to find out more about what you have to offer will be able to click the link and be re-directed to your website.

This is a continuous process and you will need to write fresh new articles every week. Consider working with an article writing service if you feel that you are falling behind.
