You’ve written your article, distanced yourself from it for a couple of days and are now sure it is ready to be submitted to article sites. Each of these sites has its own rules regarding submission regardless of whether it is called an article bank or an article directory.

You need to start by doing your homework. Most of the sites will require you to register, which costs nothing. Making a document with your name, address, telephone number, email address, business name, and website address, as well as the username and password that you would like to use will save you time . You can copy and paste from it into each site. You can also use software, such as Roboform at www.roboform.com .

Read the submission guidelines completely for each site before you submit for each one is different. The sites will vary on how many articles they will accept each week. Some article sites require an actual human being to register. Not following the guidelines set forth could cause you to be banned from ever posting.

While most sites will post your entire article, there are some that will only post a brief bit and link to the article stored at your site. You will find it boring to type in the same information over and over again so that is where the cut and paste document or Roboform comes in.

It’s much easier to have a ready-made document or software to fill in the repeat information. Next, fill in your headline, subheadline, the body of the article, and your author’s resource box information, cutting and pasting works well here. Some of the sites will keep your information on file but you may find yourself needing to change this information when you choose to promote a different product.

After submitting your articles, you will see an increase in the amount of mail you receive. Using a different email address solely for article submissions will help. You will need to make sure and check it, however, because the article sites always check for email validity.

There are hundreds of sites to submit your articles to, but the following listed ones are the ones you should start with.
