To thehitbomb, Submitting to few directories every or a gap of few days is recommended. However, if you keep little variation in your articles, it will work too. Like; with little variation, you can vary the anchored texts too. Though it'll be not an entirely unique article but not duplicate either. To andyba, Most of them allow backlinks. If not article body in all, resource box/author profile can surely give you one or two permanent backlinks.
Thank You, Chillingbreeze!!! Are there any services that would submit my article to many such directories?
I get a lot of visitors to my site through Go Articles. I place it up there right with Ezine Articles.
I manually submit my articles to: http://www.ezinearticles.com http://www.goarticles.com http://www.associatedcontent.com I have used Spontent.com in the past and it will submit your article to over 400 directories for you. Then you can log in and see what the status of each submission is. I gained hundreds of backlinks to my sites this way.
Big content sites, like online magazines, for example, are the top places to submit your articles. Networks are #2. ~
