Undoubtably the best articles sites?


To all you experts out there.

What are the best article sites to post unique articles. There are so many to choose from so i'm wondering which ones are considered the best to target, and how often one should post an article.

Thanks in advance.

Article databases/indexes got hit big-time, so its not worth bothering about anymore. Such 'resource' sites, areas and sections that ARE the best, great etc won't be open to the likes of non-resource sites anyway.

We are talking about actual resource/portals here and why they are created in the first place. Most are built to gather info of a certain type, so if you don't fit their criteria, then you won't be of interest to them - get it.... Most forum members are self-employed services eg: Copywriters, SEO's - so nothing related to the huge portals available, and that's not even taking into consideration that the content is even good or not, that would tempt such portals anyway.

If I owned a travel portal, why the hell would it want some two-bit car-wash service even speaking on the subject of travel? it wont be an authority opinion or facts - its just spam. No question that I'd see the car washes own link, thus work out its only spam - so ofcourse I won't publish, no matter how good the article - the article doesnt serve me as its not my link attached to the article.

If you must write articles, then put them on your own website.

If you can find good quality RELEVANT and non-spam websites, who are willi ng to publish your articles, then by all means go with those. A fair benchmark of quality is to ask if the readers of the article on the target site might find it useful, and might click the links to visit your site.

As the poster above mentioned, dont neglect your own blog in line with publishing quality content on other sites.

Yeah, switching from article directories to guest posts on relevant blogs/sites, along with your own, is important.

If you're able to output a high enough volume, publish a couple of 1000+ word articles per week on your own site, then another 1 or 2 articles on external sites.

Content may be king, but getting your remarkable articles in front of the target audience is a great way to build authority and gain traffic, without waiting months for Google to rank you highly in search.

Put them on your own site. You will them get all the traffic, all the link juice, all the leads.

The difficult bit is creating articles that google wants to index and rank well.

So spend the next week reading the stuff on http://www.copyblogger.com/. Ignore the promo for scribe, the good stuff is in the tutorials.

I'd agree with most of what's already been said. It's better to place articles on your own site and a select number of guest blogs posts should be created on a regular basis...the number should depend upon budget and time. Quality of quantity. There are other ways to market online - banner ads on niche sites, email marketing...the list goes on. Integrate and test opportunities.
