Every day another article submission service goes online.  Submitting articles to reputable online article directories is an important tool in driving traffic and subsequent sales to your website.  They also create vital branding for your company.

Perhaps the most important value is online article directories build one-way incoming links to your site.  It’s also impossibly expensive and time consuming for the already over burdened business manager.

Some managers go it alone by downloading article submission software.  This can work if you are lucky but chances are if the article directories are included with the software they’re already out of date in the fast moving world of content writing.  It can take hours every week just to keep directories up to date.

Furthermore, each directory has its own technical requirements such as accepting articles in HTML format versus text.  Adapting each article to all the rules of every directory is also a time killer and few software programs can spot all of them.  Why not put this important job in the hands of the experts and contract with a service that does all the work?

Look for a service that promises to submit your articles manually.  This will guarantee all requirements of directories are met.   Make sure the service will submit your content in several categories, insuring the widest possible exposure.

Ask them what they do to protect you from SPAM.  Do they maintain a separate email account where the login and password gets verified with each submission?  This is time consuming, but vital for the flow of articles and back links.

Services like this usually charge by the month or the year and for all the work that is involved, an article submission service is surprisingly affordable and one of the most cost-effective tools your business can have.

As you will note this article is written with the end user in mind, however if you wish to become involved in this type of work then we here at Virtual Assistant Jobs would like to hear from you.  We have positions open and are looking for more VA’s.  fill out the contact form and we will get back to you.
