How to post article:

Many SEO Newbies don’t know how to post articles in article directories. They don’t follow the editorial guidelines for posting articles. Here I come with some guide lines to make you know how to post article.

Before posting an article all you must see that the article is original not a copied one and not try to include any affiliate links in it. Submit your article to your related category, do not submit it in many categories, this may put your article in spam category by that particular article site and your authorship may be suspended.

You may include up to 3 hyperlinks in an article, as well as in your author biography. All the anchor text will have “no-follow tags”, but some site provides “do-follow” after you become premium user. All your contact information should appear in the author biography column.

Below is the format to help you guide how to post articles in article directories. If you follow it and post some articles, you’ll come to know how to post article perfectly, this will help you to generate traffic to your business.

I – Title: A maximum of 150 characters and minimum of 2 words. (I specially recommend using up to 80 characters for best search engine results). Do not use ALL CAPS. Do not have the name of your company or website in the title. Your author name should not appear in the title.

II - Article Summery: Every article must have an article summary (up to 500 characters). The purpose of the article summary is to give the reader a quick overview of your article. HTML tags are not allowed within the summary.

III - Article Body: Your article should have a minimum of 250 words and a maximum length of 12,000 characters. The following HTML tags are allowed within the body of the article. page-tag, break-tag, bold tag and link tag. Only one keyword will be allowed for 100 words. Do not use hard breaks in your article, only at the end of a paragraph (clicking Enter twice or using the
tag). Bold, italicize, or underline only text that needs to be emphasized, not the entire article

IV – Keywords: You always select up to 15 highly relevant keywords that are separated by a comma. Non-relevant keywords will be removed.

V - Author’s Name: Do not user your website as the author name. Your author name should not appear in the title of the article.
