goarticles is good for a back link only. The articles barely get any traffic and the ones that do usually have a terrible click through ratio due to the sites layout. I have hundreds on both directories and goarticles in my opinion is a terrible waste of time.

Yo are better off with amazines, articledashboard and some others that do well.

also research your niche because different directories do better in different niches!!

EZA definitely is one of the best traffic generating article directories , I basically use the rest for eg.goarticles, articlesbase, articledashboard , etc for backlinking purposes

Ezinearticles rocks both in terms of the authority and also the link juice.

I submitted several articles to goarticles but did not get much traffic. Did a test using same articles submitted at ezinearticles and it was accepted at GA. No wonder it lacks value from G. It has too many dup contents.

I have only really used but from the comments will be trying and probably some others.

try amazines.com and articledashboard.com as well both rank as good or better then goarticles

Ezinearticles has a better selection IMO. I have used both a lot but ya EA is better.

As far as I know EZA is the best, but even better is to submit to more than one directory. It's better to change a little the article (with article spinning program) and send it to some of the leading article directories, so that you can have both backlinks and traffic.

Here is a link to:
List Of Top 50 Article Directories By Traffic, PageRank
it shows you the Alexa rating and Google pageranking

For me both.. They are both quality article directories.. That's all that matters to me

for me ill write to EZA if my goal is to get traffic, but sometimes submitting your content is such a pain. Ill then rewrite my article and submit it to GA for the backlink. I think GA has a higher PR than EZA (not sure about that).
