Article marketing is probably one of the most important element of SEO or search engine optimization. It’s a great SEO technique for acquiring backlinks for your new or established website. Backlinks or text links as it is commonly known in the SEO industry are used by search engines to determine where to rank a website in the search engine index or SERP (search engine results page).

Search engines like Google loves quality content, and you can provide this needed content by writing in your field of expertise. In exchange for your hard work, Google could reward your article writing efforts with backlinks to your website.

In order to acquire these backlinks to your website, you need to submit your articles to article directories that will allowed the placement of an author’s bio at the footer of your article. Most article directories may allowed you to use as much as three unique text links or URLs in your author’s bio.

Once these text links are cached by the search engines, you could be credited with backlinks to your targeted webpage. It’s critical that you do the keyword analysis beforehand to find the right keywords. If done correctly, your targeted webpage could be elevated into the much coveted top 10 listings in the search engines.

You can leverage this awesome technique by simply writing good articles, and submitting them to article directories. I’ve listed some of my favorite websites that allows the use of an author’s bio. Additionally, I’ve also checked to make sure that none of these article directories are using the nofollow tag. Nowadays, you don’t want to waste your time, and submit your articles to websites using the nofollow tag because Google might not follow or pass any Pagerank credits to your targeted webpage.

Note: as of this writing, these websites are not using the nofollow tag
