Please do let me know the minimum and maximum duration for the acceptance of an article in se friendly quality article directories and same for the sites in general directories??? Awaiting your valuable comments...
Depends on the site you submit to. Most will get around to looking at your article within a week or two.
Ezinearticles will usually take about 7 days if you are new and haven"t submitted before. As soon as you have 10 articles accepted it will usually take 24-48 hours. Many of the other article directories will take less 24 hours. It really just depends on the submission rules of each directory.
The duration depends on the article directories. Few directories will have automatic approval and they directly publish your articles. So, choose good and fast approval directories and submit in them.
