So you have your article written. It has correct spelling and grammar, it's cleanly organized, and it's informative. Now what? How do you get it out there and making you money?

The First Path: Manual Submission

The first path takes a lot of time, but it won't cost you a cent. You simply sign-up with various article directories, and then submit your article. In the the resource box, put your name (or your pen name), your website, and a little about you, as well as a little about your website. This is so readers can explore your work further if they find your article to be useful.

The Second Path: Automated Submission

The second path costs a bit of cash, but will greatly decrease the amount of time you spend submitting to article directories, as well as enable you to submit to many more than you ever could have without a program. You can simply Google article submitter, and you'll get thousands of legitimate results where you can download a submitter for a few dollars. With most programs, you have to put in your information, and then it will sign you up with directories as long as you check a box saying you accept to the sites terms and conditions (for each site). Then, once you've signed up with as many article directories as you like, you can enter your article into the program, and it will submit your article to every directory you've joined. This requires a bit of work at the beginning to sign up for directories, but if you are going to be writing multiple articles, this is a very time-saving approach to article submission.

Once you have picked your path, you can continue the process of Article Submission, and start pumping traffic from your masterpiece.
