Article Submission Does it Really Work?

Article submission or the posting of articles to online directories and news groups has been around for quite some time but does it work? The answer is a resounding YES! If you are looking for a surefire way to drive traffic to your online business then article publication and submission is the way to go. But like most things in life there is a hard way and an easy way to achieve your goal. Writing interesting articles and submitting them to the hundreds of directories out there can be a very time consuming process to say the least.

Writing and submitting articles online has several benefits for your internet business whatever type of website you operate. First off though it may be worth once again going over why you would need to submit articles in the first place and more to the point just what you should expect to achieve by doing so. Chances are that you are reading this article because you have a web site that needs traffic. In fact a web site without traffic is like a car without gas , its going nowhere fast. You may have the flashiest high tech all singing all dancing web site on the net selling the best products or services but unless you can get people to see it the site may as well not exist.

So the main reason for submitting articles should be to drive that much needed traffic to your site. But there is more to it than that. One of the benefits of submitting articles is that it causes a link back to your site, not just from the directories that you post to but from the sites and blogs also use your article as content. The great thing about all these links back to your site (apart from all the free traffic) is that the major search engines will index your pages faster because they love to see incoming links. It gets better still though because more links equals higher page rank which puts your pages higher up the search engine results pages or “serps” as they are technically known.

On top of all this by submitting these articles you will gain credibility as an expert in your field, which in turn will make those articles even more popular with web masters and bloggers who are searching for quality content for their own readers but don’t want to write content themselves. The other great thing is that once published or “set lose” on the net your articles will take on a life all of their own as more and more people use them. This is commonly known as viral marketing because of it’s pervasive nature and the way it continues to spread across cyber space.

Like I said first off though, all this submitting business can physically take a great deal of time and effort to accomplish. The great news is that there are now several software programs available which will virtually automate the whole process. Now instead of spending hours submitting you articles to just a handful of directories you can send them to literally hundreds at the press of a button! That means more traffic, more back links to your site and higher page rank for a lot less effort.

    Does this sound good? SEO developer guarantees top 3 positions for major keyword or money back.?
    I am currently looking for an SEO developer for my website. I recently just hired one based in India (which I found through elance.com), about 8 months ago. He was able to do onpage optimization and create 150 inbound links to my site, along with other SEO works such as article submission, directory submission.

    The problem is that the 150 inbound links were mostly PR0, PR1, and sometimes PR2. They were somewhat irrelevant to my niche market.

    I started with about a top 10-12 position with my main keyword, and now I am in the top 8-9 position. Not really that impressive in my opinion.

    Anyways, Ive been doing research online for SEO developers, and I stumbled upon this site called www(dot)internet(dash)empire(dot)com.

    I emailed them for a quotation and the person I am speaking with is very professional and great to speak with. It is a company based in Singapore. You can check their website.

    The guarantee he has is that he will guarantee me at the top 3 positions for 5 of my main keywords (I choose the big main keywords I have), or my money-back, full refund. This will be done in 6 months or less, and I will pay him the remaining 50% as the 5 keywords reach the top 3 position.

    The price is $2,500 USD.

    I wanted to ask the opinions here at Warrior Forum before I move forward with this. I believe that $2,500 is a little heavy on my end, but if it would mean getting the top 3 positions on Google.com for my top 5 keywords, this would be a wonderful deal.

    Thanks in advance for your inputs!

    Never pay for seo optomization…chances are that when your payments stop you will drop right back down to where you started. Sit down and analyze your google reports and take the top 10 websites in similar content and find the differences between yours and theirs. Use firefox to get sources and meta data easier.

    You can write or outsource articles and then submit them to a cooperative network of blogs. 100 articles will earn you 6,000 one-way links. You know what this means, right? The service is free if you write the articles yourself,

    I would highly not recommend internet-empire as an SEO provider since anyone who views their own SEO on their opening webpage can readily see that this company believes that spamdexing is a legitimate way to elevate their own website, much less that of their clients. Here’s a preview of their current SEO metatags, wherein you can see the repeated use of the words "SEO, optimization, etc."

    1. Current: <title>SEO Company | Singapore SEO Expert | Guaranteed SEO Services</title>

    Comment: The keyword "SEO" should only be used ONCE!

    2. Current: <META NAME="Description" CONTENT="No.1 SEO Service Provider that Guarantees Top 5 Ranking on Google. Our SEO Services & SEO Consultants are second to none. Contact our SEO Experts now.">

    Comment: Again use of a spamdexed/duplicate keyword — "SEO."

    3. Current: <META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT="seo,search engine optimization,seo optimisation,seo optimization,seo search,seo services,search engine optimization seo,seo marketing,seo software,seo company,web seo,seo tool,seo consultant,seo com,elite seo,seo service,seo website,best seo,google seo,seo expert,www seo,seo tips,professional seo,seo blog,affordable seo,seo training,seo keyword,web site seo,organic seo,new seo,seo ranking,seo specialist,seo agency,online seo,seo copywriting,seo experts,seo us,seo uk,seo org,seo inc,seo course,ethical seo,seo solution,learn seo,cheap seo,seo pricing,buy seo,seo specialists,international seo,seo info,seo information,seo optimized,seo seminar,seo pro,seo courses,seo project,seo pros,seo workshop,seo price,seo guy,seo consultation,mobile seo,internet marketing,internet marketing seminar,guaranteed seo service,guaranteed seo services,uk,us,canada,india,china,hong kong,indonesia,id,singapore">

    3. Comment: There’s a maximum limit of 16 keyword entries consisting of compound and plural entries and it’s obvious that this SEO company does not follow this rule which is set by google.com.

    In conclusion, if you can judge the lack of professional and legitimate SEO placement on an SEO consultant’s webpage, then it’s a clear indication that they are not capable of promoting anyone’s website without spamdexing keyword entries.

    We would highly recommend that you do not engage the services of this Singapore SEO promoter.

    Good luck!

    I am just a simple blogger and got number 1 hit from Google. Look for ‘Negasunt". But if it makes you happy, go ahead and give him $1,250 advance.
