    I am creating new content
    250-400 words.

    Whats the best way, to put it in website, and than social bookmark, and put in facebook, twitter etc...
    If i put in website, so shall i like include the title of that content in main-page? so google would assume main-page is usually updated?

    or to just put that content in various Article directories??


    Dont just tell me please that do this or do that... give me some advantages and reasons.. Will help..

    Well, you have to have some content on your website and regulary adding new and it is also good to have some content in article directories to get some quality related backlinks. Don't forget to bookmark articles in article directories, too.

    Both methods are equally vital. But if you are building back link it more important as well as more traffic to use the content on your site, social bookmarking, twitter and what ever.

    you need to do both. adding content on your site is important as more often you add contents, more frequent visit you get from googlebot.

    on the other hand, submitting articles not only give you backlinks, they give you traffic as well. i get fair share of traffic from few top article directories so its well worth it

    I would suggest just adding it to your main web site. This way you will be showing Google that you have updated fresh content every once in a while. That may help the rankings. As google loves unique fresh and new content.

    Website Advantages:
    - Get bots to visit frequently and it may help your SERP ranking as well

    Article Directory Advantages:
    - Gets backlink and targeted traffic that will increase your SERP ranking as well.

    I don't see any disadvantages posting to either sites. Maybe, you should split your article submission to get both benefits.

    Hi there,
    Both things are very useful. Submitting content to your website is very necessary since it completes your web site and make it to look good and unique, while submitting articles to the directories are necessary from the SEO point of view. Article submission is a part of SEO but putting content to the web site is an essential part of your web site.

    I think my advice will help you. The article you write make it two parts by changing some contents of the article, so that it do not look like duplicate. The good one post on your blog and the other post on article directory. Every time you write article you can do the same, it will give you more time to write article.

    Both are useful. You can submit your article to directories and post it also in your site. But make sure to rephrase it so that google will not recognize that as duplicate content.
