If you arrived here through the link on the article Google,
To Be Or Not To Be, please read on for more information on how to
submit your article and give your web promotion a kick start, as well
as how to go about writing your article, it does not matter whether
you have written before or not.
Submit your
article
The most important factor to realise before submitting your article
to the article directories is to make sure that your content is formatted
in the correct manner. Different article directories have different
formats which you have to adhere to in order to get published.
Make sure your content is relevant and new, preferabily write it yourself
or have an original article. If you are going to use PLR articles, change
them so that they are different to the original by at least 30 percent.

Please do remember getting your article published is only the first
step. People need to read your article and post it on their blogs, websites
or ezines as content. That is where you generate the traffic, and get
the all important links for your web promotion, not just by having
it published.
Ensure that your article is interesting to the potential reader.
You should submit your article to as many directories as you can. You
can do this manually one by one or you can use article submission software
or services. Doing it manually takes up a lot of time, considering you
could use the same time to write 3 more articles, work out for yourself
which has the best value.
The article submission service I use Submit
Your Article I will personally recommend as their service is extremly
good and you reach a huge amount of directories within two days of submitting.
They might however be a bit pricy at $37.00 per month if you are only
starting out but do yourself a favour and have a look at them.
I can vouch for their service as I submitted 4 articles over a period
of four weeks and started a new site at the same time. My site was
not indexed and had no pagerank. Within 1 week my site was indexed
in Google, Yahoo and MSN. 3 weeks later, because of the backlinks I
received from the articles, my main page has a PR4 ranking and some
of my other pages has a PR3 ranking.
As I mentioned they are a bit pricy and if you are just starting out,
you might consider one of these products that will give you very good
results as well.

Writing
your article
This can be an extremly daunting task at first, but don't be scared,
every writer had to write his or her first piece, and all of them
had the same fears. So remember you are not alone!
The most important thng to remember when you are writing your article
is that it needs to be topic spesific. Write about a topic and don't
wander off in all sorts of directions, it just confuses the reader.
The article market has many writers who you are going to be competing
against, but this is not a problem, all you need to do is write in such
a way that the reader can follow easily and you will not lose him.
Always keep in mind, no matter what you read, it will always follow
in a sequentional manner taking the reader from point A to point B.
Write as if you are telling a story.
