Using Article Directories And Hub Pages To Market Your Web Site

Using article directories provides an ideal way of getting the message out about your product or web site.

With the continuing emphasis placed on the use of back links and search engine optimization, this is an ideal method of marketing.

By writing about your product and placing links to your site in the resources box, you are effectively creating back links to your website.

This effect increases as web masters, ezine and newsletter publishers download and publish your material on their own site.

The two main conditions placed on publishers who use content on article directories are that they use the articles they use as they are on the directory.

(It pays to try and write the best article possible, because there is a lot of competition in most categories.)

The second condition is that they include the writer’s url and information, as well as a link to the article site when they publish.

This in turn builds back links.

While there will always be the occasional outlaw who doesn’t abide by these rules, the majority of publishers do the right thing.

Using Hub Pages and Squidoo Lenses is another way to accomplish this!

Simply write about your product or website, and link back to it.

Make sure that the content is different to what is on your website though. Another advantage in using this method is that both these sites have a profit sharing scheme.

One thing that I hate is people using content scrapers to grab articles off the internet, and then rearranging it to make it appear “original”.

This is nothing but outright theft.

Someone created it, and should be rewarded for their effort.

Apart from that, scraped content, and a lot of poor quality PLR material, looks amateurish and poorly written to say the least!

Looking for an article directory? I just happen to have one here!

I’ve just moved it to a new, faster server, with plenty of room to grow.
