You are putting in the effort to create quality articles. Now you are ready to submit them to the article directories. There are hundreds if not thousands of them, you scratch your head and ask yourself, “Where do I start?” Don’t waste your time submitting to all of them. Actually you really want to submit to only the best directories. Here I am going to list the top ten article directory sites that you should make sure that you get listed on.

These ten sites are listed below in order of page rank on Google and Alexa Ranking. You know the smaller the page rank number the higher it is up on Google.

1.GoArticles.com is owned by Canadian publishing giant, Jayde Online, Inc., and has been around since 2000. PageRank: 3 (http://GoArticles.com)

2.Searchwarp.com is a very nice article directory, it feels more like a friendly community than an article directory. It’s very colorful and vibrant. You can also publish your photo with your article. Searchwarp has been around since 2002. PageRank: 3 (http://SearchWarp.com)

3.Isnare.com is an outstanding article directory owned by Glenn Prialde of the Phillipines. Isnare has been around since 2004. PageRank: 4 (http://Isnare.com)

4.IdeaMarketers.com is a great article directory that will not only let you submit articles; you can build your own ezine as well. IdeaMarketers is owned by highly respected entrepreneur, Marnie Pehrson. IdeaMarketers has been around since 1998. PageRank: 5 (http://Ideamarketers.com)

5.AmericanChronicle.com is another one of my favorite article directories. Actually, it’s a family of 21 different article directories. Like Buzzle below, it’s technically an online news magazine. And also like Buzzle, you can still submit your articles to them, once you pass their approval process. AmericanChronicle has been around since 2004. PageRank: 5 (http://www.americanchronicle.com/notices/submit_info)

6.Buzzle.com features its own directory, free e-mail, message boards, news, articles and short stories online. Buzzle provides information on health, travel, science, technology and lifestyles. Technically, Buzzle is an online news magazine. But you can submit articles to them, once you pass their approval process. Buzzle has been around since 1999. PageRank: 5 (http://www.buzzle.com/authors/become-author.asp)

7.WebProNews.com is an articles and newsletter database covering a variety of ebusiness topics including SEO, SEM, and Affiliate marketing and ebusiness site design/development. WebProNews has been around since 2000. PageRank: 6 (http://WebProNews.com)

8.ArticleDashboard.com bills itself as “the premier source of free content for newsletters, ezines, and websites.” The site also offers free syndication services for authors and publishers. ArticleDashboard has been around since 2005. PageRank: 6 (http://ArticleDashboard.com)

9.ArticleCity.com bills itself as “your one-stop source for free articles.” And not only can you submit articles; you can submit press releases as well. ArticleCity has been around since 1999. PageRank: 6 (http://ArticleCity.com)

10.EzineArticles.com is a matching service between tens of thousands of expert authors and millions of readers & publishers looking for expert solutions to millions of problems. EzineArticles is owned by highly-respected entrepreneur Chris Knight, and is arguably the king of article directories. EzineArticles has been around since 1999. PageRank: 6 (http://EzineArticles.com)

My final piece of advice on submitting your articles is this, do it yourself. If you don’t have time to do it yourself then hire someone to do it for you. Don’t use software that is going to do it for you. Doing it yourself will save you time and frustration and it will allow you to stay on top of the which sites are doing their job and which sites have vanished from the net.
