Traffic is the lifeblood of any web site, and if content is king, traffic surely is the Queen! For website operators and webmasters there is a wide variety of tools available that allows them to attract attention to their online ventures, ranging from the classic link exchange to sophisticated on and off site Search Engine Optimizing(SEO).
While the large corporations have millions of dollars to spend on online advertizing and marketing, how is the average site owner to compete, with little to no budget in comparison? Actually, with just a little skill and the right strategy, any web site owner is able to compete, and even beat those corporations, with little to no budget at all. The trick is to apply article marketing, which combines the power of unique content, with SEO.
By creating articles on your web sites theme, service or niche, optimizing those articles for proper indexing by the major search engines and then submitting them to the top article directories it is possible to gain powerful one way back links to your site. This in turn increases your rankings on the Search Engines because of the excellent ranking those Article Directories hold on them. A link from those pages to your own web site therefore goes as a high quality link, which can improve your site relevancy dramatically and thus boost your listings on the search engines.
Anyone in doubt of the validity of this strategy should take the time to submit one article every day to the top 10 Article Directories for a period of one month. After this you will find your traffic and rankings to have improved significantly and you will understand the power of Article Submissions to Article Directories.
As a rule of thumb, be sure to submit unique articles to each Article Directory you submit to in order to gain maximum effects from your submissions. Of course, if you have a little budget available it is possible to outsource this by hiring an SEO service provider, who will do the creation and submissions of the articles for you.
