It depends what you mean by "article sites".

The value of the backlink(s) tends to be proportional to the relevance of the site to your own site.

"Article directory" backlinks are very low value indeed: they're non-context-relevant, PR-0 backlinks. Even before Google's latest algorithm-change devalued the article directories so much, SEO textbook authors were saying that you'd typically need something between 50,000 and 100,000 of those backlinks to give you the same backlinking value as one backlink from a relevant authority site.

It's all been discussed here very recently, anyway: this thread, and this thread, and this thread will all help you, I think.

You can try fixitarticle each article has it's own page and Googlebot stops by several times a week.

If you are thinking about getting backlinks from article directories, then those are generally PR-0 and most importantly non-indexed links at the first place. You can however create a content on your site and after the content in your site gets indexed, you can put the same article (Probably with a different title) in some of the best article directories such as ezinearticles, articlebase, goarticles etc. You may get some good traffic as you will put links to some other articles of your website in those.

For quality backlinks, I would suggest you to find relevant niche sites related to your website. Ask the webmaster to make a guest post for him/her and include a link to your site in the author re-source box. I'll do it be the site is do-follow or no-follow, in case, you are skeptic, choose the ones that are do-follow. A lot of webmasters love free content and thus you can get some good links.

Here's a great thread on a clever way to use Article sites for linkwheels:

In addition to above, you can also do article submission in ezine articles

Is it still worth enough to get backlink from article directories? Or do you prefer to get backlinks from other methods? Thanks.
