From day to day, it seems the article directories "in favor" with Google keep changing. Currently, they seem to be: Ezine GoArticles HubPages Squidoo And perhaps in the ffuture...Google Knol Yes, no, maybe? Any opinions? Please weigh in on the topic.
Ezine is the best one. Goarticles, I stop using it for some reason. Squidoo and hubpages are not really article directories. Sure you can post your articles on them but They are still called web 2.0 Lately, I think google have been showing more love to hubpages than squidoo. Also take a look at Bizsheet, I am getting some pretty good result with it. Mega
I hear a lot of marketers going on about Knol and how it's going to be the next best thing. I really only use Ezinearticles at present although I do have a few at articlebase and I hear a lot of people talking about Buzzle.
I wouldn't say that Squidoo and Hubpages are article directories, because it's like a mini-website, not a directory. So if we are talking about directories, then here's my top 5: 1. Ezine 2. ArticleBase 3. Buzzle 4. SearchWarp 5. Isnare GoArticles really suckz.....
I'm finding hubpages to be a waste of time. I can make a squidoo lens and a hubpage that are basically identical in overall content, but not duplicates, and have it rank very well while my hubpage version does nothing. Maybe it's just me, but i don't get any love from them.
