    Yes articles can help your site ranking but you need to use quality content.

    Articles can definitely help as long as they are posted at the right place. Most of the article listing websites have to much contents and to many outbound links giving them no value at all. The best tactic is to go after websites that have trust/influence within your industry and see if they will accept guest posts/articles. These could give huge value when it comes to SEO if done correctly.

    I think to market your site through articles is getting important now a days and it comes in with few long term benefits. How ever you have to be innovative, meaningful and careful while doing so. It brings contextual backlinks to your site. Sites with articles and ebooks are getting more and more popular in the eyes of Goolgle these days. It builds your web portfolio.

      If you are doing one article a week and it is well written and you are submitting it to well established and trusted sites, it will help with your overall backlinking strategy.

    I wouldn't say articles are really beneficial & reliable for increasing PR these days. In fact, stop worrying about PR because it has become a flawed metric and something that Google can go months or even years without updating. Just create great content for the primary reason on satisfying your audience, not to gain PR because you will likely be greatly disappointed if that's your goal.

    not anymore, it`s 2014 article marketing doesnt work, you might get traffic but not too much, 90% of the traffic are other webmasters who looks at your site so in the end i will not convert

    I agree, article submission has little impact nowadays. It can help you with backlinking, yes. but if you are after of sales, nope. Try other options like social media marketing.

    I would post more than one article a week if you can, and/or get some more writers to contribute. Videos help as well.

    Article writing really is not the best use of your time and its just a way to get some quick links back to your site.

    Link building isn’t easy. It takes time and effort.

    But instead of getting easy links, why not work on building relationships with bloggers and work on writing guest posts that can add value to their site and community while benefitting you with exposure to their audience and possibly building a quality reference from an authoritative site.

      Add a video = visitors stay longer on your site.
