i want to start an e business but i am not techie savvy. what is a copy?
Most of the article sites where using Captcha image control so using automatic submitter, those will be left out.
Anyway, only few of those article directories where useful so here is the list I tested out - http://veikoh.wordpress.com/2007/06/...-does-it-work/

Always be use manual submissions.
If you do automate submitters, there are many chances of being denied the articles in directory.
So go for manual one.
Hi Hector,
My suggestion is to manually submit your best articles to the directories. Furthermore the articles you submit should be unique and not already on your blog or website as you can potentially get penalized for having duplicate content.
I have tried automatic article submissions and they don't seem to work for me as it rules change on the major article directories. So a majority of the software sold don't seem to work.
Best thing to do is to spend time writing good articles and submit them manually making sure the article is unique!
What is article submission services, what is its importance?
Nowadays i hear a lot about article submission can anyone tell me more about that?..
You write an article and send it to a submission service. They in turn send it out to hundreds, if not thousands of article directories and services. You can also buy software that does the same thing for you without going to a separate service.
Of course, the idea is to get you article, and the links therein, on as many sites and computer screens, and picked up and followed by as many SE bots as possible. However, there's a lot to be said about quality over quantity. Submitting to a few GOOD article directories is better than submitting to a thousand POOR ones.
A lot of them simply crawl the good directories and duplicate the articles on their own sites anyway.
I would say submitting the articles manually is the best option as it gives you more options to choose a niche to submit the articles. and submitting to quality directories is always good rather than doing it to all the poor directories. All the best
I always submitt the articles manually myself. Allocate couple of hourse every week or month depending on how much contents you have to article submission, this way you dont risk being penalized.
Good luck:-)

First of all Article Submitter software does not work properly and there are lots of issues with the article spinning technique used to rephrase article to avoid getting penalized for duplicate contents. This may result in grammatical mistakes or irrelevant changes due to which your article might get rejected.
Article submission to mass quantities of these low value article directories is a horrible idea. It creates massive duplicate content issues and very low link building value.
Write really high quality articles, mix up the copy and anchor text for the author bio in each directory submission and only submit to just a few (2-4) of the most relevant directories for the article topic.
Trying to have these articles rewritten and regenerated with software simply spews out unreadable crap that humans won't get any value from. That's also a bad idea.
A lot of the inferior article directories simply crawl the good directories and duplicate the articles on their own, often inferior, sites anyway. Once you put an article on the web, you really have very little control over what happens to it or where it might pop up.Quote:

Try to rewrite the article in your own words then there will be no problem I think. I did it and so far I was fine.
only do manual submission, using any kind of software is spam
Ya definitely, article submission can increase your page rank & boost your SERP.. But you need to have informative articles. PR is based on the quality of your backlinks.
i just wana ask one thing regarding article submission to sites
Is it advisable to write articles specifically for submission purposes only?
What I mean by this is...If i write an article and include it in my website, can i submit this article to an article directory? or do i need to write another one only for submission purposes?
An article submission strategy should form an essential part of promoting your web site, but if you are missing one vital ingredient, most of your efforts will be in vain. This article will show you what you could be missing, and how adding this to your strategy can have a hugely positive effect on the results you get from your article submissions.
Many people seem to believe they can spend just five minutes writing an article, submit it to lots of article directories, and then enjoy an avalanche of traffic to their web site the following morning.
No SEM campaign is complete without SEO. Moreover, since the purpose of SEO is to make the site better for both search engines and users, you may find that it will suffice on its own. In any case, the advantages of SEO over the other aspects of SEM make it clear that, even if you are going to spend additional money on advertising and paid placement, SEO must be your first step in promoting your site.
Automated tools can be a great time saver, but the most important messages are hand delivered right? So the same should apply on the web...make sure you manually submit it if it is an important resource to give it the best shot at being accepted. Also, if you use some of the free automated programs you may end up receiving a lot of junk emails.
The article directory proposes to make your life easier, providing useful articles, tutorials and information resources from and about various life issues. Here you may find: free business articles; financial and e-commerce articles; free internet tutorials; science and health information; free sport and fitness articles; reference and education articles.
I you submit to article directories as part of your SEO strategy, it's always best to write an article specifically for the directory. You don't want articles on your website duplicated all over the web, otherwise you dilute the potential for your page to be ranked highly. If you have trouble finding the time to write articles, you can outsource it for as little as $4 per 300-word article.
Try elance.com or rentacoder.com for outsourcing. I currently use Pajama Team and have been very happy with the results.
I prefer manual submission over the automatic submission because I know that my articles are actually submitted if I doing it manually whereas in automatic submission, I don't have an assurance if my articles are actually submitted.
Any thing which is a auto submitter will not help in the long run or some times they even might not give you any results too. Search engines always like natural linking to be more specific human submitted. If you are using any auto submitter you might not able to submit your site for the sites which are top and has a very google weightage by google. So do manual submissions. If you could do 10 submissions also will make the difference compared to auto submitter.
software will do submission to multiple site. in this way you are not gonna submit unique contents.i always prefer manual submission.
Yeah, I agree with the opinion that a number of directories are not indexed by search engines. One must be careful about directories PR before submitting an article.
In fact the technique is that the directories direct traffic coming to their sites to yours through articles you have submitted there. If a directory itself is not ranked then it is a true fact that it would not direct traffic to your site.
I agree go fr those directories you believe in otherwise you wont have any advantage
I have tried automatic article submissions and they don't seem to work for me as it rules change on the major article directories. So a majority of the software sold don't seem to work.
No it doesn't hurt your ranking or your website.. but try to avoid such software as it is sometimes not work properly..
I'm guessing you want to submit to article directories for the backlinks to boost your sites's ranking.... Well here's the catch, not all article directories offer you do-follow links (those that crawlers index). Those that do have the do-follow links, and a high PR scrutinize the content that's submitted. They want their articles to offer their readers value, so their guidelines are strict. If your content is not unique, your articles will be denied.
My suggestion is to submit to these directories manually and first (before you have the content elsewhere)
Ezinearticles.com
**********.com
ArticleBlast.com
Amazines.com
ArticleAlley.com
ArticleDashboard.com
They rank well and fast for the keywords, and will send not only the traffic but also the bots to your site, as they are Do Follow links.
Then you can spin your articles with care; to provide enough value to the readers, and do an auto submitter. BUT Google can sandbox you/penalize you if your growth seems artificial. Better take is slow and steady, rather than get stuck in the sandbox for 6 months over 100 crappy links.
Good advice, Jeremy.
Thanks.
Old Sarge, what's your take on no-follows? I was conversing with a person adamant that no-follow links are in fact indexed, but the catch is that they don't "pass the juice". What's your experience been like? Do they get indexed? Are they followed but carry no PR value?
From my experience, they're treated exactly as their name says ... no follow. I think the SEs ignore them altogether.
There IS one exception I suppose. Google (supposedly) pays little attention to (certain?) meta tags these days, so I guess that means they pay less attention to the "no follow" than they used to. Maybe your friend is on to something ...
Why don't you submit your article manually? risk free
i think it is more time consuming job. in one article writing time one can submit back links to many sites.
Unfortunately that blog post doesn't seem to be there any more.Quote:
