One simple and effective way to build traffic online is to submit your articles to the online directories.
There are people out there who need content for their publications, newsletters and websites… and they will search these directories for articles they can use.
If you are already writing an ezine or newsletter this could be as simple as taking what you’ve already written and submitting it. If you don’t have an ezine you may need to whip up a few articles from scratch.
It can take a bit of effort to post your articles, this is something that a VA can help you with on a weekly or monthly basis.
Below is a list of online articles directories that you can submit to… or you can enlist the services of Jean Hanson who will submit your article to a variety of directories for $25 each. For details go to www.VirtualizeYourBiz.com
