An Experiment of a Webmaster

Article writing is something I’m going to begin playing with very soon. I’ll modify and submit my tutorial articles so far to an article distribution site so bloggers and ezine writers can all pick up the story and post the article for free. At first that seems like a bad idea because I’d be giving away all my content, but its really not.

When you post an article for others, you are allowed to put an author box at the bottom. In the authors block, you tell a little bit about yourself and can include links. When others pick up the articles, they have to leave them untouched and links intact. When a search engine crawls the article directory or the end site where your article is published, your link is intact and counts as a backlink. So the idea is mutually beneficial to you.

Once google begins indexing my site more regularly I am going to start submitting some of my tutorials and writing to these sites. I also am thinking about offering some of my writer friends the chance to get their names out there. If they write the articles, I’ll pay for the widespread submission to directorys and help them track the progress. In return, my links will be included in the resource box at the bottom. The more links you have, the better you’ll rank.
