Can anyone recommend some of the better article sites to submit to? I know of: ezinearticles.com goarticles.com Glenn
Ysf1's Article Depot - http://www.articledepot.co.uk/ He works hard to promote and maintain the site - lots of value in that.
I think the two you mentioned give you a lot of bang for your time. We opened one (ContentTycoon.com) recently and are putting lots of time and money into making it a great site/service. Also the one AzAkers mentioned is good. Really though, you should submit to everyone you can. Today's smaller site can be tomorrow's industry leader.
Personally I think the distibrution though www.isnare.com is the best but Padawan has a good list here Or you can try the list below: http://advisor.com http://amazines.com http://articleresponder.com

http://www.info-sales.co.uk/index.php?page=article some of those takes just too much effort to submit your article (you must upload pics, your business summary, info about yourself, the article, solve the Riemann Hypothesis etc just to have it published.)
Just remember the Pythagorean Theorem and you will be fine Actually, if you are submitting articles to build up brand, trust and reputation, these extra steps are good to do. iSnare is ok, but it is a little bit on the archaic side. I use it myself, but am disappointed in the lack of html support. For example, bullet points. Articles typically come in with weird symbols in them. Also the lack of keyword links in the signature is a big turnoff for me. This is one of the main reasons for doing articles. It is good for getting wide saturation, but sure would be more beneficial if these items, especially the signature issues, were corrected. It is the best and most inexpensive mass submitter I have found.
I post each of my articles to 30 of what I and others here list as including the top article sites. I haven't posted to any of the yahoo group sites yet ? How important is it to post to 30+ 50+ sites (compared to say the top 10 or just 15 sites) ? How important is posting to the yahoo article group sites ? As far as gaining more traffic etc Thanks
I only post to 5...I actually believe the amount of benefit versus the time it takes drops severely after the major ones. You are better of writing more articles then submitting to places you may never get a link or have your article picked up at.
how much trafic do you expect from article sites? like you said you only submit to 5 so how many visitors do you get?
How about this guys http://www.media13.com . Submitting an article to article sites is only effective if those are well written and accepted by the article sites. Recently we have launched article submission service.Here we gurantee minimum 10 links from all different article sites and ofcourse you will get traffic from those article sites where your aricle has been published. We have already submitted tons of articles and came up with guranteed results and finaly satisfied our customers. I have also tested my own sites.
Let me just say that the writing quality of articles overall is sub-par. You would have to write at a first grade level to get denied from most article distribution sites. Why? Because the service is simply there to make the content available to others, not to judge quality, which is the website owner's job. That said, the better your article, the better your campaign will be. By releasing great articles, it is easy to rise above the pack. As to submitting past the first couple of larger websites, that is a matter of preference. Each of us has a different agenda. At the very least, I would probably manual submit to some key ones and iSnare.
Submitted an article to tons of article sites won't help much but submitting to few best ones only. I also like iSnare and regular visitor of that site.
As to what are the "best" ones. Two come to my mind: Ezinearticles.com and goarticles.com. By "best", I am only talking about articles being picked up and not about features, presentation and so forth. I try to submit to places where I know or think they are marketing their service (like the two I mentioned, mine , articledepot.co.uk and so forth). Many of the sites on these lists are just auto article systems. That is pointless. That's why I manually submit to the ones I regard as being actual working websites and use iSnare for all the other fluff.
Bluegill, Submitting to the Topica and Yahoo Groups has the wonderful benefit of getting your website spidered very quickly and the link in your article stays good as long as the group is still open. I also get a great deal of my articles picked up by publishers who search through the groups for new articles. Bonnie
I think some of the smaller ones also obtain articles from the bigger ones. I do not recall having posted my articles in one of the smaller article site so I was quite surprised to find my one year old article listed on there.
