Things To Remember Before Article Submission

It may be a job, an experiment or just a hobby for many of us to write and submit articles. Today there are millions of article writers around the world and 35% of them write to submit at online directories. Many of us still don’t know how to submit and what all things to be examined before submitting an article. The Article Submission Site to be chosen varies depending upon target behind the submission.
1) For Getting Audience
If you are writing articles to spread your knowledge to a vast audience, the first thing you must check is that ‘How much popular’ is the article submission site. You could check it out by simply observing various ‘Article Counts’ and finding out the number of subscribers to that site.
2) For Getting Links
Webmasters, who are very new to the field of SEO simply don’t know the fact that every links are not counted for SEO. The links are basically of two types. ‘Dofollow’ and ‘Nofollow’ types. ‘Nofollow’ type links avoided by Search Engines for calculation of search results. ‘Dofollow’ links are same as ordinary links. So before submission to an ‘Article Directory’, you should check some of their random articles whether the links they allow inside the article are of ‘Dofollow’ type. You could check it out by simply right clicking on the link and choose ‘Inspect Element’ and observe whether the code ‘ rel=”nofollow” ‘ present there [for Google Chrome]. Other browsers also have some similar options to check the link type.
EzineArticles did allowed ‘Dofollow’ type links in the main body of article till a while ago, but now they have restricted ‘Dofollow’ type links to only inside the ‘Resource Box’.
Another problem that arises here is that most of the article submission site does not pass ‘Resource Box’ to their free web content subscribers. So your ‘Dofollow’ type links will remain bound inside the main article only.
The ‘Page Rank’ factor is also very important things to be considered. The more is the Page Rank, the higher is the value of link from that page. EzineArticles and Buzzle are some of the
Highest Page Ranked ‘Article Submission Site’ I have seen so far. You could use the service of ‘CheckPageRank.net’ to check the page rank of different Article Submission Sites.
3) To Get Web Traffic
Your writing skills is the factors that brings you web traffic through articles. You should do your writing brilliantly so as to drive traffic via links in the ‘Main article Body’. You could give a small interesting description and exploit the readers interest to read the rest of the story via links.
You should also be careful that your article is something that people loves to read and is based on some trending topics. You could find what are the trending topics on web using ‘Google Trends’ and ‘Twitter’.
4) Product Reviews
Writing reviews on new products also need excellent writing skills. The article should be interesting so that the reader could get an interest in buying that product.
