Article Marketing is just one of the many ways of promoting a service or product. If you don’t have enough money to market it using other means, this will be a good way to get started. In posting elsewhere or in your own website, the most important thing to do is to use relevant keywords so it will be easy for visitors to see your site.
Some people say that the rise in the number of people who use article marketing has a negative effect because it has brought down the quality in the articles written. To prevent this from happening, you have to post articles that are relevant and informative.
Writing Articles is one part. But the most important part is publishing your articles to the Article Directories.
Here is the Top 50 Article Directories listed by Alexa Traffic Rankings and Page Rank.

You have to sign up for each site individually to submit your articles. Each Article Directory has different Terms and Conditions. So make sure you read the Terms and Conditions carefully before submitting your articles. Adjust your articles according to terms and conditions of every Article Directory. Otherwise, your articles may be rejected by the Article Directory.
Few vital things to consider while submitting an article are:
1. Word count: Be very careful with this aspect. Some submission sites will reject your articles for the mere fact that you lacked some words in your piece. While others allow 300 word count for the articles, most sites prefer a minimum of 500.
2. Avoid spamming: Choose a category where you think your articles will best fit in. Do not post your material on multiple categories for each site. This will result to spamming and the site can ban you for such act.
3. URL: Read carefully what the site’s guideline is about placing your URLs. Some may allow this to be included on the body. And other sites would only accept URLs if these are included on the author’s bio box.
4. Language: Basically, the language of your articles must be in English. You can use other languages and look for submission sites catering to such market. This can be done if you really want to broaden the reach of your materials. You must remain professional sounding when it comes to your work. Do not use any obscene language as this may be taken as a negative thing against you.
