To direct the maximum amount of traffic to your website, it is necessary to send your articles consistently.  Sending a few [1] high-quality articles per week to different article directories is recommended.  Follow the regulations that article directories set, such as the maximum number of allowable article submissions per day or week.

There are numerous article directories on the Web you can send your new articles to.  You can submit your content to two types of directories: some of the top article directories, and directories that are oriented towards your niche.  You can locate the second type of directory via Google, by typing in your keywords plus the additional phrase ‘ezine directory’.

Here are some of the top article directories on the Internet:

•    [2] www.myarticlenetwork.com
•    www.ezinearticles.com
•    www.goarticles.com
•    www.articlebase.com
•    www.articlecity.com
•    www.articledashboard.com
•    www.ideamarketers.com
•    www.isnare.com
•    www.searchwarp.com
•    www.selfgrowth.com

Reviewing your articles for any oversights, such as misspellings, and following correct sentence structure and grammar are important.  Your article marketing efforts will benefit from making sure that your content is top-notch, while you ensure that the links and other details you provide in the resource box for each article are accurate.

Manually submitting articles to the directories one by one may prove to be tiresome after the first few times.  There are many automatic article submission programs you can download from the Internet at no cost, which will streamline the process for you and decrease the chances of any mistakes due to human error.

The Article Submitter from Brad Callen is a viable alternative.  The software automatically completes the required information for you.  All the user has to do is click on ’submit’ and go to the next website.  While cutting down on time and effort consumed, the software also shows the Page Rank of whatever site receives your articles.

There are even more sophisticated options which require you to do less work, such as isnare.com and articlemarketer.com.  These article submission websites give you the ability to disseminate your articles via article directories much more quickly and easily.

Isnare and Articlemarketer both charge rates for their article submitting services.  The rates you need to pay depend on the amount of content you want to send, with Articlemarketer’s annual rate coming at 9, and Isnare requiring to send 10 articles.  Articlemarketer’s yearly fee enables you to send an unlimited amount of content for submission to directories and other sites.  Articlemarketer’s free account permits the posting of articles to a few dozen websites.
