Backlinks are a great way to improve your website position in search engine result placement (or SERP) and for higher page rank. It is very important that you get a lot of quality of backlinks for your website; the more your website will be pushed up in results you can get from search engines.

Over the time many bloggers have adopted many different ways of building up backlinks, the most common of them being by commenting on other blogs. Also it is also quite popular to leave your link as a signature on many forums. These not only help in attracting some residual traffic but also support in your endeavor to build one-way links. One-way links are much more effective than reciprocal links, where you have to link back to the site which links to you. These are all some tips and tricks in SEO.

Personally, I feel that there are some methods of getting one-way links that are still not utilized to the optimum extent. One such way is by submitting to article directories. Most of these article directories have a very good page rank. When you submit an article to an article submission directory you should make sure that you are submitting to the correct category as many people who want to read something will browse according to the website categories.

In your profile page, you will have to write about yourself and give your personal details along with a link to your website. This link is DoFollow and is the all important backlink which you are looking for. Just make sure that your article conforms to the Terms and Conditions given by each Article Submission Directory as they vary a lot. Also it is required so that your article is not rejected.

Another major advantage of Article Submission directory is that you can project yourself as an expert in your niche through your articles. If the content turns out to be good, then many readers will visit your website and may become your loyal readers.

Below I have included links to six of the most popular article submission directories on the internet:

  1. EzineArticles
  2. ArticleDashboard
  3. American Chronicle
  4. ArticleBase
  5. GoArticles

Apart from these there are a lot many article directories that are available; I have listed out the best of the lot. Do you have any more article submission directories which you use?
