    Article submission is supposed to be one of the quickest ways to get good traffic.
    I have submitted my articles into article directories expecting to get good and quality back links. I am also following all the guidelines while submitting the articles. And i can also find my article being published its not that they are rejected or declined but the thing is that i haven't got single back link. please explain.

    Thanks In Advance,
    Kranthi.

    Article Directories are poor for traffic and backlinks, BUT the main benefit is that fact that other sites might host your articles and give you free backlinks. I've written and posted over 500 high quality articles and I wouldn't rely on them for traffic if you intend to use one directory I would highly recommend http://www.ezinearticles.com/

    I haven't had many clicks from EzineArticles even though I rank fairly high in google for the search terms. Yet they are great for backlinks.

    I suggest you submit your articles to only quality directories. I only get traffic from about 3 article directories. And I see backlinks from 15 article directories in google webmaster tools.

    I have written the detials in my post here

    Try to write articles with list of items.

    Say,

    "Top 10 mistakes you would make before and after wedding" would sounds buzz than some other ordinary topic or heading.
    And i also that articles are great source of backlinks, but one can not expect that in a very short period of time.

    I've submit my article to lots of article directories also and more of them accepted but only few of them also are showing on backlinks. I don't know why also. I know this can also send traffic but only few are coming to my site.

    i will suggest you to get the Quality content for your Articles and also upload in yoour site.

    after that submit in only 50 to 60 quality and high rankings directories.

    you can check your content with copyscape.com.

    sure, you will get benifits soonest.


    Thanks
    John
