What is the best way to promote articles you've written

[staffjam]

Hi,
I've just written a set of very good and well researched articles. The site isn't that popular - so i was wondering the best ways to promote them.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Best way for unique articles is to put them on our own site

If you still have extra articles that are somewhat related to the niche your site is targeting then article directories etc are good way to get some links in.

I agree with Nick. If you have very good articles then it's the best for you to publish it on your own site. and other middle related articles can be submitted on article directories and your dummy blog with backlink inside. so you'll get quality backlink.

Agreed with other replies, add the best articles to your site and then submit any left overs to article directories. Then work on building backlinks to your website by commenting on relevant blogs/forums. If you've got great unique content and relevant links coming back to your site then the search engines will love you.

Why should you develop other sites?
If you have quality content, post it on your site first.
Then you can post the same article in other article directories to get more link juice.

Articles

Hello there.

About seven years ago I wrote an article entitled "Domain registrants beware" and submitted it to Articles on All Regions, Law, Accountancy, Management Consultancy Issues
It was well received and well read at the time. I then forgot all about it until I decided to do a Google search for my own name (Ralph Cockrell) and was pleasantly surprised to find that my own site Literary Agent and Information Consultant ralphcockrell.com was at the top of page 1 and the article I wrote for Mondaq was the third item on page 1, and likewise for Yahoo and Bing (Which is being used by libraries in the U.K.)
As I have never used ppc for this site; and the site is fairly new; then I can only assume that the ranking has been helped by this, and other articles. Posting her at NP also shows when searching for my name.
So in conclusion I would say give Mondaq a try and any other article writing specialists such as iSnare.com

I hope this has been of some help to you; and not too long and boring.

Regards

You can submit your article to article directories or even classified ads sites and press releases sites..

Well article directories are good to submit articles , this way you also can get some back links and Traffic too, But if you think you have very unique and user friendly content and you can't place them to on your own site , then you can create some blogs on free blogging plate forms , like blog spot and wordpress... because after some time you'll get some pr and visitors too on them, so it will help you to promote your site and business

it also depends on how many articles you have written and whether you going to continue writing in the future. one option is to start a new blog and link back to your own website. not from every article you publish though it would be too many links pointing to the same domain. from article directories i recommend ezine, buzzle and goarticles - they distribute your articles quite well if they are valuable to your audience

Bookmark your article.. that's the best source of traffic.. also you can use for getting some instant traffic.

HI

First put them on your site... and get some bookmarks to your site.. then around a week later submit your articles to all the article directories.... you want the serps to index your site first with the articles on it.

Thanks
