Not understanding article submission...

[IsGabeW]

So I got my keywords for my niche, got the domain, got the site built and wrote some articles to blast out to collect some backlinks...

BUT I am not clear on exactly what software or sites there to use?

Thanks

Hi maxmyer,

I have tested out quite a few of the "best" article submitters.

Unique article wizzard was fine at first, but my backlinks whould vanish soon.

I am extremely happy with AMR ( Article Marketing Robot ). Its not a reccuring payment kind of software, but a 1 time fee which is well worth it.

Sincerely, Buyseech

P.s.: There is a 7 day free trial I believe still on.

[IsGabeW]

Are there any sites/people/software which you can just pay per article?

[QuinNguyen]

You can try to warrior for hire forum. People will submit your article to thousand of blogs. They even write it for you

[socialbookmark]

I didn't understand what you are exactly looking for. But if you are looking for an automated article submission software, you can see and choose these softwares:
Article demon, article submitter and article bot.
Also you can submit your articles to article directories manually and its better in my opinion.

I guess I am not fully clear how the whole article submission process works...can you point me in the direction to read more about the whole process?

Each article directory has different process. You want to know the process of using automate tool or manual?

[IsGabeW]

Well as I would think its best to submit to a large number of directories, I would need to learn to automate the process.

Thanks

I can't offer this as a testimonial since I haven't used this product, but I will tell you that a very good friend of mine (fellow warrior in fact) just started using Article Marketing Robot and he thinks it's extremely good, as in "the best out there right now" (to quote him). Speaking from a marketers perspective, this much I do know: my friend is no joke - he walks the walk and talks the talk.

So OP, if you're going for software to submit your articles, this may be an item to consider.

You don't have to use an article software, in fact, I suggest you do it manually at first so you get a feel for what it's about and get some better results.

Manual submission works a lot better than automatically.

Write some unique articles and submit them to the following directories, these directories are my favourite to submit too as I have seen the best results from them.

Include your anchor text links in the resource box:

http://www.ezinearticles.com/
http://www.articlesbase.com
http://www.goarticles.com
http://www.helium.com
http://www.webpronews.com
http://www.articlesfactory.com
http://www.articlepool.com
http://www.amazines.com
http://www.gather.com/
http://www.articledashboard.com
http://www.thefreelibrary.com
http://www.articleclick.com
http://www.isnare.com
http://www.articleseen.com
http://www.articleblast.com/
http://www.articledepot.co.uk/
http://www.articlewheel.com
http://www.articlebiz.com

Or hire an article writer to submit it, they may have AMR in their own homes.

Wondering if you'd elaborate on how you came to this conclusion?

Easy, because each article directory has it's own set of rules and policies. (especially the top directories, they are very different!)

Some directories allow you to put comments in the actual context of the article, which is way better from an SEO standpoint than putting links in your resource box.

Some other highly reputable directories only let you include a URL, not anchor-text links.

Mass-submission software will not account for these and your article will fail when you submit your spun article with generically spun resource box with anchor-text links in it. - Thus missing the opportunity to get a high-quality link.

There are many other reasons too, but manual submission allows you more control to take advantage of the unique features of the top directories.

That said, I also use automated software to do article marketing, but I always manually submit to these 20 odd directories by hand.

My testing shows that there is not much difference in SEO benefit if I send out a mass-submission to 1300 directories as oppossed to submitting to the list I mentioned by hand and taking full advantage of each directory.

Most of the directories that mass-submitters submit to are garbage anyway. Sure, there are a lot of decent ones there but not enough.

I was hoping you'd say that . Hope the OP is still reading this thread.

I just started to use AMR the other day with the free trial, this is one of the very few programs that actually let you try before you decide, just like a real program in fact. Give it a go, I have found it incredibly useful, if you wathc the videos the whole article marketing become easy to understand, and the spinner is as good as any I have tried out before.

I do agree with dadamson above that you should submit to some of the bigger names by hand for his stated reasons, but for the mass use a prog like AMR to make life easier.

I bought automatic article submitter. Wouldn't recommend particularly as lots of the article directories are obsolete or it doesn't register with them automatically. Might try Article Marketing Robot based on the feedback on here. Let me know what you choose and how you get on.

[Enviouz]

Is there a submission tool that have scheduling capability?

[kea55]

The best article submitter you can get is the one on the ends of your arms

Yup Article Marketing Robot does that to, if you ask it may even make your coffee for you, but I have not found that feature yet
