Should You Submit Articles To Niche Directories?

Article marketing is a time consuming activity if you do it right. But there can be some big payoffs. Should you spend your time researching and submitting articles to niche directories?

Yes, I say you should. But understand that very few niches have that many article directories that specifically focus on their niche. You might find one or two article directories that serve your niche and if you do then you should submit every article you write to them. But don’t just focus on those directories. Also focus on high traffic general directories with authority.

The key to article marketing is to get your articles seen in as many places as possible. You are trying to do two things: Drive traffic to your website and build back links. Anything you can do to further each of these objectives is a positive. Niche directories are great for delivering targeted traffic, but the links are also highly relevant links if you article is picked up by a publisher. General directories, however, will usually see more traffic than niche directories so I wouldn’t discount them.
