Why should you submit your articles?

If you want to rank high in search engines, have more visitors, and increase your sales then you should start submitting articles to the multitude of websites that have been compiled for your convenience.

When you submit articles to websites you will receive a box at the bottom of the page with the info that you would like for your reading audience to have. The most important item should be your website address. Try to use keywords from your website in the article you write and when possible include a link to your website in the body of the article as well. When you add this link to the bottom of the article or in the body you will be receiving links back to your website.

This is the best cost free way of promoting your website. There are literally thousands of people searching for content for their own websites and they are seeking out websites with “free articles”. If you have written a few quality articles pertaining to the content on your website or articles with useful information that is interesting and can provide other websites with enjoyable reading, they will download your free article with your website link and place your article on their website. Now, you have a link from the free article website along with each person that desires to use your article. There are hundreds of websites that offer free article submissions that you will soon realize once you check out www.info-sales.co.uk/article.htm. With all of these websites that are using your article you will be able to have a great number of “backlinks” all pointing to your website. You will be able to achieve a higher ranking in the major search engines.

Now, you have the websites at your fingertips, but what should you write about? Well, it is always best to try to write about what is on your own website. You want surfers to click the link in your article and visit your site. Make each article as interesting as possible and write something that is not all over the internet. If you have a food website that you are wishing to promote, write an article on a recipe that is your favorite. If you can not think of anything to write use things you know, like your hobbies, raising children, how to build a website or anything else. If it does not pertain to your website you will still have a link at the bottom stating the author and the author’s website. Therefore, you will still be getting traffic.

No matter, what reason you built your website in the beginning you want it seen. If you do nothing to promote your site, you will not have visitors, you will be buried way back on page 27 in all the searches, and you will be losing money if you are selling products. You may think that since you are trying to sell products on the net that you do not have any reason to write articles. But, you still can promote your site with articles even though all you have on your website is a shopping cart. Think about it, what products are you selling? If you are selling gift items, you could write a simple article about giving some of these items to friends and family members for birthdays and other Holidays. The main reason to get your articles on as many article submission sites as you can is to get your website noticed.

Submitting articles is the best free advertising on the internet today that will supply the webmaster with quality content while providing you exposure for your own website as well.
