Article Ranking - How Much Time Do You Spend On It?

[tjk1058]

I have a new site that I have been promoting since mid December. It is ranked in google and I have been getting traffic from natural results along with traffic from EZA from approx 15 articles submitted.

I want to get some of the articles that have traffic potential according to google's keyword tool (approx 5-6000 searches per month) a better ranking.

I have bookmarked those pages using onlywire.com and have submitted a similar article linking back to these articles to 4-5 other article sites like goarticle, articlebase, etc...

My question is... how much time do you normally spend promoting one article? Or do you just do what I have and hope it works... or keep submitting to different sites until you see a ranking boost?

This will depend on the competition for the keywords you are promoting. Quite simply, the greater the competition the more articles you are going to need to submit.

Here's the real simple answer: you will need to submit as many articles as it takes until your page is ranked where you would like to see it. Less competitive phrases will require submitting less articles.

I would stay away from onlywire if I were you. Just my humble opinion. There is really no automated bookmarking service that's worth a damn. I do all my bookmarking manually. The rifle is better than the shot gun in this case.

Perhaps if you could share how you do keyword research and the level of competition and the search volume for the phrases you chose, then we could serve you better.
