There is much debate online about whether or not article marketing still works. And when I say "article marketing", I mean the process of writing a high quality article, and submitting them to the article directories. After all, isn't that what they're there for? To get you more traffic to your website, and also to get your articles syndicated from other website owners who publish your article onto their website? This is something that you should be definitely doing. And no... the great debate has nothing to do with whether or not you should submit your articles to the article directories. The great debate is whether or not you should write for humans, or write for the search engines.
