    There are none. Do some reading and you will realize they are no longer effective

    Using article directories for traffic isn't a good idea anymore. Article directories like ezinearticles are gradually growing extinct. Directories like ehow and hubpages are also not getting recognized a lot nowadays. Regardless, there are benefits like link sharing and brand awareness. Why not try Ebook syndication instead? Don't ask me to clarify? Google is your friend.

    Yeah, the days of getting traffic from article directories is pretty much over and done with so it doesn't even make any sense going in that direction.

    I suggest you think about some other way to get traffic but this is definitely not the way you want to go.

      Most of the article directories out there have more digital tumbleweeds blowing through them than the ghost town in a spaghetti western.

      Google did two things that killed them.

      They decoupled Adsense bids from search bids, so the return on Adsense clicks took a serious nosedive. Directory owners that used to get Adsense checks delivered by UPS are now applying for jobs at UPS.

      The real knockout blow came when the directories lost their listings due to being buried in digital muck wrapped as articles. Credit the invention of the article spinner and the autoposter for this one.

      Your best bet is to look up lists that may be a decade old and research how many of them are a) still in business and b) still article directories.

        Yeah, you remember the glory days of EZA. And people were doing BUM Marketing with that. it was easy money. Throw up a slew of articles with an aff. link in Resource Box and you were off to the races with loads of traffic lol

        You are not getting it. Nobody, for good reasons, uses them anymore so no one can suggest them for you. So I took 3 seconds and did a google search for you.
