For article marketing to really work, requires a strategy, not just throwing some articles against a wall and hoping and praying that something will come from it.

So, this is great advice.

Writing articles is a great way to get both traffic and links for search engine traffic. But here’s something I discovered about the traffic side of it.

When publishing on Ezinearticles I get the most traffic from one place, but the fewest links. Where the other ezines give me only about one unique visitor per ezine.

Yet, if I distribute to a lot of ezines, I get just about as much traffic from all of them put together as I do from Ezinearticles. So, that still doubles my traffic, but I get more links from that large distribution.

But, from what you are saying distributing to all of those small ezines may actually be hurting my search engine positions.

Thanks for great info.
