Best Article Directories For Getting Backlinks?

[Stagit]

Hi Guys,

im looking to start building backlinks to my new website but want to know which is the best article directories from your experience that will

1. give me a backlink
2. allow me to put the link in content and not resource box
3. the article will be crawled quickly.

Thanks

The best in the league is ezine articles, goarticles and Buzzle.com

[Stagit]

i have uploaded article to these directories but yahoo only seems to be picking up ezine, my buzzle or go articles have not being piacked up yet and they were all submited 7/8 days ago.

maybe i should just keep submitting and not be worrying

[webmatic]

For me the best one is ezine obviously and i just use resource box but i think so you are allowed to put 2 links in content as well. Goarticles, buzzle and articlealley are the other good ones i have tried for article marketing purpose
Thanks
Webmatic

[Stagit]

il just submit to them all and try and track whicj=h ones are getting picked up

[Splinter]

What about trying these 2 services? I have read they are quite good and will be testing them shortly myself

Free Traffic - Increase Search Engine Rankings with Article Marketing Submission | MyArticleNetwork.com
Unique Article Wizard - Submit Unique Content to Hundreds of Websites

[Steven Heron]

Any of the major automated article submitters are good. Unique Article Wizard, Article Marketer, isnare, they all provide the same sort of service at roughly the same price. Make sure to combine these networks with proper article directories as well however (such as Squidoo, Ezine Articles, Hubpages, Goarticles etc)

I've had success with the following:

ezinearticles
articlesbase - approves my articles instantly
searchwarp
articledashboard

Please stay away from submitting to directories that are crawled by search engines and don't have much visitors. I have tried submission services in the past and it didn't work for me. But when i changed to just 10-20 high PR, fast approving and fast visiitng by search engine, i have noticed some changes. But the most important for you is ezinearticles where you will get traffic that will give you some money.

Most article directories will only allow links in the resource box rather than in content. If you want links in content then those web2.0 sites (such as Squidoo, Hubpages etc) are of better choice.

enzine articles
go articles
searchwrap
article base
amazine
article dashboard

[Jenie0109]

here's a good list :

Article Directory List - Directory Critic

[jeffturner]

Ideamarketers is also very good and trusted article submission site. PLease cheack thsi too

[Amenda Jessera]

EZA, GoArticles, articlerich are the good directories to get more traffic....

[legitimatefreestuff]

I wouldn't write for GoArticles for the links. My backlinks have not shown up for articles I wrote nearly 2 months ago. I'm not writing any more articles for GA until I see some results.

[pluto1]

I have had good success with ezinearticles and articlesbase. I 'm yet to try buzzle but always heard good things about it.

[SurviveUnemployment]

EZA is the only one that has shown any results for me. I think it's because they insist on unique content.

[banker0679]

these sites are NOFOLLOW

articlealley
articlesbase

i have a list somewhere but i know those are nofollow

Often times the least trusted site gets devalued, which is normally the home site, and not the article directory.

thats why the article directory often comes up in serps before the home article holder

[banker0679]

if you have the same article on your site...and post it on ezine....

you're right that if your site goes to the supplemental index that that's not a penalty

that's a filter

i would NOT recommend posting the same article from your site to ezine or other major authority sites. Your site will end up losing in the end

I create a new thread to query the above in order to keep this thread on topic...

Penalized for Articles on your site and authority sites?
