Article submission also know as article marketing is one of the most effective way to drive traffic to your website. Ask any seasoned internet marketers and they would definitely endorse this tested and proven method.
However, article submission takes time and effort. And there are certain “rules” that you need to following in article marketing.
There is no point submitting to article directories for the sake of backlinks and PR ranking. The point is Dense Writing Does Not Get Read and published by other webmasters. You’ll need good quality articles for your article marketing campaign.
Recently, I started publishing articles for distribution aka article submission to build inbound links for my main website. My favorite article submission site is EzineArticles.com. So the question is: after you submitted your article, how do you know if it was being picked up and published by other websites.
One of the easiest way to track your article is to search for it with exact search option. For example, I would search for the title of my article - “How Companies Can Optimise Their Web Pages for Search Engines” - to track who used it on their website.
