    I was actually trying to find out how successful the techniques was.
    Did you get x amount of link backs.
    what article websites were most successful.
    how did you research your subject and decide on a good one etc.

    I picked the subject I knew, that allowed me to write
    articles that others wanted to share. Creating backlinks
    to my opt in pages where I gained leads into my sales
    funnel.

    Article marketing is an inexpensive and powerful marketing
    tactic, here's why:

    From Overture, a keyword suggestion tool, you will see
    the millions of searches done to a certain keyword. When
    these keywords are typed on search boxes of search
    engines, indexed websites containing articles with those
    keywords will be displayed. And this is what leads traffic
    to websites with keyword-rich articles. Yes, the magic
    word is articles.

    Content is king. You can say that again. That is why
    writing articles is one of the most utilized Internet
    marketing media today. Internet surfers just can't get
    enough of information on various fields. Providing information
    through these articles is a surefire way to drive hot traffic
    to your web site.

    Why is this so? Here are the benefits that writing articles
    can give your Internet business.

    1. It's absolutely free.

    Too good to be true? Not. Okay, you have to pay for
    your Internet Service Provider. That's it. All you need is
    your thoughts, your computer, and your hands. If you
    have those, nothing will stop you from typing words
    that will make you complete that article for your website.
    On which aspect of that process did you really shell out
    any cent? Maybe later when your electric bills come.


    2. Your website will be noticed in a short period of time.


    Submit that article of yours to article directories that
    get the most web traffic and in no time your web site will
    be crawled. That is if you don't forget including your
    resource box or byline.


    3. Obtain back links automatically.

    When you submit your articles to directories, surely, other
    websites will make use of your article too. With the
    copyright terms of your articles, the URL of your website
    will still be in tact and will subsequently direct more traffic
    to your website.


    4. Improve your reputation.

    As an Internet marketer, if you plainly display your products
    on your website, you will not gain much conversion rate.
    Conversion is when your traffic converts to sales. You have
    to show that you are knowledgeable on your field. And what
    better way to show that than by writing articles that will
    allow you some bragging rights, right?


    Just make your creative juices flow and jot down or key in
    those ideas quickly to jumpstart your article writing momentum.
    With those benefits listed above, a writer's block is the last
    problem you will ever be able to surmount.

    And to answer your question, I have had the most success
    using www.ezinearticles.com, forums, and blogging.

    What may be successful for one may not be for another.

    In other words...try it for yourself.
