There are quite literally, millions of article directories out there that you can submit your articles to. However, you get the best bang for your SEO buck by hand selecting the best article sites to submit your articles. Below is a list of the best article directories that all allow SEO link juice to pass back to your site for all links placed in each article.
While you don’t need to submit the entire article at a time and can break it down into 500-750 word snippets to get more backlinks, you need to keep in mind (for any of these methods – notably article placement) that it’s not for spamming or blatant self promotion. Rather, it’s all about “authoritative content around a niche” that will bring targeted traffic flocking to your site.
Also, it should be noted that part of the SEO benefit is that content placed on article sites is used to feed content on many other sites. That’s why it’s so important to place your links, again, using SEO best practices – appendix i) in these articles…
They will boost your authority for search and lead your target market back home to your site from these directories and all sites, blogs and social media where your content is aggregated. What are some of the Top Article Directories for SEO?
