Write Short Articles for Article Directories

Here is a traffic source.  You can write articles for article directories.  Don't expect to get a whole lot of traffic from them.  You will have to write keyword rich article titles to get views.  Usually you will be able to add information about yourself and maybe a hyperlink or two in a resource section.

There are a number of reasons to do this.  Sure it takes time and effort to write articles, but when you get the articles accepted they can stay in the article directory for a long time so you could get links and traffic for years to come.  Each article directory will have its own rules and guidelines so pay attention to them.  Otherwise, you can spend a lot of time writing articles only to find them not accepted by the directory.  Some directories are easy to get your information into and others can be much more difficult.

Putting your information in a directory takes some effort and you might not see results overnight.  Some of the larger article directories include ezinearticles.com, articlesbase.com and goarticles.com.  When you get your articles approved it can help your website or blog get some traffic.  If you have some extra time write a few short articles and submit them to article directories.
