Top 7 Tips For Submitting Articles Online

Online PR in the form of website and ezine article placement can be a great way to build your personal brand. You showcase your expertise in the article and raise your status. You get an author's box at the end of the article containing a bio, as well as email and website contact information. Readers may click-through on your URL to learn more about you. More links improve your search engine rankings. The benefits go on.

Here are my top 7 tips for online articles:

* develop an enticing title

* make the article informative and useful, and without hype or jargon

* keep it focused on a relatively narrow topic

* keep the length under 1,250 words

* proofread to ensure there are no typos, punctuation or grammar errors

* end with an author's box of less than six lines, complete with short bio, email address, web URL and telephone number

* develop a list of article archives and ezines that publish features on your area of expertise.

Some archives you'll want to review are Articles 911 and Ezine Articles. A number of online directories provide lists of ezines in your topic. Check out EzineLocater and Ezine Search.
