Article Submission hits millions and it is Free

By Brent Sweet

Every day I talk about article submission and how it has astronomical benefits. I can't think of a better way that you can market your business in todays economy. I would go out on a limb and say there is no way you could get all of this for free:

- Articles become viral several webmasters use them to add content to their site and each time they do it they link to you.

- The links they add are counted as votes for your website being relative to the keywords you choose in your anchor text.

- The anchor text and vote count towards moving your site up in the search engines.

- If you rank at the top of the search engines you are displaying a free ad to more people that most newspapers circulate to.

The best part of article submission is that it can be done for free. I mean quite literally you could advertise to the largest market of consumers on earth, and do it 100% free. What better way to market a business.

So how can you submit articles free?

- Just start writing. You are in business and have to have some knowledge about your field. Write up an article or two or ten about your field.

- There are tons of blogs, directories, ezines and more that you can submit your article to and get it published. If they publish, free link!

- Next you just go to article directories, ezines or whatever you can find, and submit your article so they can publish it. It may take some time, but like I said before this is the best free marketing you can get.

There are some submission softwares out there that might speed up the process, but doing this for free is a lot of work. I personally, use a service that does the submissions for me, it is so much better than the software you find.

The service I use does the following:

- Submits my article to thousands of directories, blogs and ezines. As long as it is on topic for that specific directory it is submitted.

- When this site sends out my article they send out unique versions of it. They do this by having me submit 3 versions of the same article. Then they mix up my versions even more and distribute them. This way each site can have their own version which makes my article more valuable to them, and the links more valuable to me.

- Has a unique method to make sure the search engines give me the most for my article submission. I hate wasting time, so this is important to me.

- Most of all I save all that time submitting, this is automatic. The only steps for me is write and submit.

In conclusion the best way to market a business right now is with article submission. If you want to invest in marketing the best invesment you can make is about 30 bucks a month and some time to distribute articles the most effecive way possible. - 16747
