A tip here is to use the free jetspinner.com and spin out lots of articles, and then submit those to directories, avoiding the duplicate penalty.
Thanks for the nice list.. but I want to know one thing, If I submit one article at 100 directories then it will treat as a spam..
Thank you. There are some excellent lists here. Exactly what I was looking for. I'm about to start submitting quite a few articles and had one question, Is it worth spending my time submitting more articles to a smaller number of article sites or submitting fewer articles to a larger number of article sites? Thanks
Thought I should add .... 1 of mine ... which is in the link , we are currently hosting to over 30 K aritcles and over 13 K authors and growing by each passing day, have fastest human review policy ... cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers Tirmizi
Although the list can stretch to quite long, I feel that the best so far and worthwhile of our effort and beneficial in terms of PR and backlink is ezinearticles. I'm not promoting the directory in any way...it's just that, don’t forget one thing. It may not be a good idea to submit same articles to all the listed sites as google can consider it as spam.
The article sites I submit to are:- http://digg.com/ http://del.icio.us/ http://www.articledashboard.com/ http://www.articlesbase.com/ http://EzineArticles.com/ http://goarticles.com/ http://www.ideamarketers.com/ http://www.squidoo.com/ http://www.ezarticles.info/ http://www.article-exposure.com/ http://www.articlewisdom.com/ http://www.articlesnatch.com/ http://www.articlealley.com http://www.articleco.com/ http://www.ezine-articles-planet.com/ http://www.explorearticle.com/ http://www.exclusive-article.com/ http://www.exchange-articles.info http://www.everyonesarticles.com http://www.ebaykings.co.uk/ http://www.buzzle.com/ http://www.articleincome.com/ http://www.articleblast.com/ http://www.articlecity.com/ http://www.articlecube.com/ http://www.articlegeek.com/ http://www.free-articles-zone.com/ http://www.usais.org/ http://www.article-idea.com/ http://www.site-reference.com/ http://www.iguides.org/ http://www.a1-articledirectory.com/ http://members.article99.com/ http://www.articlebeach.com/ http://www.articlefeeder.com/ Hope this helps.
My strategy is write one article, use the free jetspinner to spin it say 200 times. I only use about 15 versions of the article, with about 5 titles. The five different articles are the most important: 1- to ezinearticles - it is the best 2. as contnet to my main site see sig 3. Blogger blog 4. to the Wordpress blog 5. to Hubpages 6 - 15 are duplicate titles (of the first 5 titles) but all different articles thru the jetspinner, and I submit to squidoo page, articledashboard, searchwarp, ideamarketers, and a few others so I have 15 different articles under 5 titles (3 diff articles under each title). I only social bookmark the first 5 (diff titles). thats my content/article strattegy
