    I think, ezinearticles.com is one of the best.

    I use Ezinearticles.com, articlesbase.com, and Goarticles.com. They are the higher ranking article submission sites, if I am correct.

    I started my Internet Mkg biz since Dec 09. I have only submitted 20 articles to the article directories mentioned by Sherly Polomka with capture page in each article to build my list. So far no one opt-in to my page. Does anyone know how many articles and how long then will I start seeing my list build up?

    I use Ezinearticle too, but they are very strict and I was asked to re-write in both content body and resource box several time. Other article directories are easier.

    I think I will take articlesbase out the rotation. It happened today again. Someone hijacked an article of mine and put their link in the article with a linkback to the original article that says "view article source". That's BS.

      I'm lazy. :-) I use Ezine Articles.

      Occasionally I get inspired and use some of the other article directories, but I've never found that it makes much difference in traffic and conversions for OLDER sites.

      If you have a newish site (under a year old), it might be worth doing intensive article marketing with several article sites.

      Generally speaking however, it's best to spend the time you have in adding more content to your own sites, so there's more search engine traffic. You can't get found for terms you don't have on your pages.

    ezinearticles.com,amazines.com,articledashboard.co m are the ones i use. If you submit to amazines make sure you shut off the kontera in text ads.

    Also do not forget about hubpages, some people hate them but they do get you traffic

    Sorry if I am being stupid here. I am practically new in forums. Why do we need to submit articles on directories? Do we than link it on our site in an effort to increase traffic?

      Davir,

      The idea is that the backlinks you get (from adding a link to your website in your article) will boost your own website's ranking since search engines rank sites higher that have a lot of links.

      But that's just the very tip of the iceberg. Check this out...

    If you write informative articles with strong content about a certain aspect of your services or products and use your website in the author's box, it will drive more traffic to your site. Article marketing is a really effective tool if you make the content something people can really use.
