    In the past article submission was considered the most popular SEO activity but due to huge spam Search engine discouraged it the reason why today it is not that much popular. But still subimtting quality and unique article to highy authority relevant directories can be beneficial.

    Yes why not, it is the best way to promote the website. Because content is the king in SEO term. But before promoting you should keep some important things in mind such as.

    Article should be unique
    Choose authentic article submission sites
    Don't spin the content
    Don't do keyword stuffing in content
    Don't think about word limit
    Article title should be descriptive and eye catching
    Write genuine author bio (it should be mandatory)
    Article content should be informative and user-friendly
    Avoid excessive linking
    Finlay very important step:- Read the guidelines before submitting article


    Thanks

    Awesome answer. A big like from me.
    My one answer to all such similar questions is..... every activity works positively if quality is maintained well. Even directory submissions, bookmarks, and even profile links also work well. But keep the quality up.

    In the past article directories enjoyed huge authority, so it was possible to easily rank your articles for your target keywords. So, article marketing was considered as an effective strategy to get traffic as well as useful backlinks. Things, however, changed around 2012 when Google's Penguin updated considered article directories as link farms and reduced their authority.

    Many article directories went out of business since then. Now, good article directories accept unique and engaging content as they do not want to get penalized by Google. So, in short, article marketing still works to some extent, but you will have to contribute unique articles. Spun articles are a big No No for submitting to article directories now.

    No, don't do duplicate article submission. Only one article content post in one article submission site.

    probably yes, creating unique and quality content and submit it to trusted article directories would do the trick.
