Whats wrong with article directories?

    Hey there,

    I submitted some articles to some directories just random ones even to High PR like 30 different directories
    But only like 5 published my articles.
    All the rest are pending for nearly a week now - is that normal?

    Or does that mean that the rest of them are dead?

    Based on the number of submissions most free directories receive, it is not unreasonable to have to wait much longer than a week.

    Well you have nothing to do right now about it.
    The articles should get approved though if the content is original and in good quality.

    Well I don't do any spinning or anything to it, I just write in my own words as good as possible. I don't think that is the problem.
    Ok I think is nothing else left as just avoid those directories for a while until they approve them.

    Thanks for help

    The directories that are human edited can take longer to publish. When I first started with EZA it would take a week to get my article published. Now that I have a good history with them it only takes three days on average.

    You want article directory where articles are reviewed and approved by actual member of staff. It can take longer and sometimes your article do not get approved but overall quality of the article directory is lot better than the ones that automatically approve all the articles. Our article directory is niche article directory but we get lot of submissions that are totally unrelated to our nice or are just bad quality so it takes time to sort out the good ones. We usually try to get articles reviewed and published in 3 to 4 days.

    May be they have too much pending articles to review may be they are dead like DMOZ project.
