Article Submission hits millions and it is Free

By Brent Sweet

Every day I talk about article submission and how it has astronomical benefits. I can't think of a better way that you can market your business in todays economy. I would go out on a limb and say there is no way you could get all of this for free:

- Articles are viral marketing. Webmasters are all over the internet looking for articles to add to their website as content. Each time they do this they have to link back to you.

- Each link you receive from a different website from your article efforts can actually be counted like a vote for your website for the words that you use in your link.

- The anchor text and vote count towards moving your site up in the search engines.

- When your website reaches the number one position for a keyword that is searched frequently you get to display an ad to those people. The volume of people seeing that ad is greater than you could hit with any single advertisement unless you are advertising in the Superbowl.

I think the most wonderful thing about article submission is that it is free to do. You seriously could advertise your business to more people over time than the Superbowl and not spend a dime. Compare that to the millions they charge for a 30 second spot. You tell me a better way to market your business.

How do you do it free?

- Start by writing articles. If you are in business this should not be too hard, hopefully you know something about your business.

- There are tons of blogs, directories, ezines and more that you can submit your article to and get it published. If they publish, free link!

- Go to each directory that you can find and submit the article, it is time consuming but if you want to do this for free this is the way.

Sounds like a lot of work! Let me tell you what I do. I use a service that will submit articles for you, and it is better than any submission software.

Some services are scams, but the one I use does this:

- Submits my article to thousands of directories, blogs and ezines. As long as it is on topic for that specific directory it is submitted.

- When this site sends out my article they send out unique versions of it. They do this by having me submit 3 versions of the same article. Then they mix up my versions even more and distribute them. This way each site can have their own version which makes my article more valuable to them, and the links more valuable to me.

- They also have a tested strategic method of submitting articles so that the search engines give them more value. I hate wasting any time so this is just what I need.

- Saves me a ton of time, it does all this on auto pilot, all I do is write articles!

To conclude, if you are looking for a great way to market your business, article submission is the way to go. If you have a little money to invest, your best investment would be the thirty bucks a month it costs to have professionals submit them like I do.
