At the moment one of the best ways to gain back links, search traffic and even visitors is to produce articles. There are many many site out there that provide free article submission services, but why would you do that?

The reason is that the article sites are refresh with content on a regular basis, meaning that robots will happily visit everyday looking for juicy new information to report on, this means that your article will be picked up very quickly, which is great, by why I hear you say.

Generally with article submission you are allowed a add 2 or 3 links in the resource box of your article, these links will be very useful for you. So you have complete control over the content, then have control over where the relevant links link too and get to choose the link text - win win win situation??? well maybe!

I have been using some great article directory software for a few months now, the software is by Article Dashboard, its very easy to use and is ready to go with very little programming. If you want to adjust template and so on it pretty easy, I have some code skills and found it pretty easy.

The site I built is GetMyNameDown.com which is a free article submission service, I have many categories and now have over 250 authors posting over1200 articles. I generally get about 20 articles a day, but have now started to get very strict in what articles I post for people.

I mainly started my article site so that I could use it for SEO during work(I work for a Digital Marketing Agency), having another place to control for links etc, but the site is now getting used more and more by other individuals its madness.

If you want to get a great article site up and running I would defo recommend the Article Dashboard software, all you need is somewhere to host it and you are away.

If you have any articles to submit, please add they to my Article Site
