It is a low cost - but sometimes a time consuming work to write articles to submit to maybe hundreds of article directories and ezine lists. To ease your work, you might make use of some of the free or paid article marketing submission tools.

When you have finished writing your article with all the right keywords, and written your bio, you go ahead and submit your article manually, or with one of the article submitters.

Now you relax, and wait for all the traffic that your new article will bring to your web site. Only if things were so easy! Maybe you had success submitting your articles that way a few years back, but not today.

As with everything else in life, the internet has undergone rapid changes, thus making article submission far from being as effective as it was only a few years ago.

The Problem:

What happens, is that you now submit an identical version of your article to every article directory, which means you are distributing duplicate content all over the internet. All the major search engines now filter out duplicate content, so although you have your article on hundreds of article sites, now it may only count as 1 single backlink to your site.

The Solution:

You should keep submitting your articles to the article sites, but only unique versions of each article, because you want each and every article to build a link to your site. If you submit unique articles at least once a week, you can have thousands of backlinks to your website within a very long time!
