Many times when people think of article marketing they limit themselves to submitting articles to online article directories. However if you do this you are limiting yourself and the number of potential readers available to you.

In this article we'll talk about why you should submit articles to blogs and how it can become a very valuable article marketing strategy.

1. For starters do you have a blog of your own? It is a proven fact that Google and other search engines love blogs.

This is especially true if you are adding fresh content on a regular basis. Therefore you should be writing and submitting articles to your own blog and doing it the correct way.

These do not have to be long articles to get the results you want. They do need to be structured to target specific keyword phrases relating to the niche your business is in.

For this reason you want to have a keyword lists of articles that you're writing around. By including these phrases in your title and in the body of your article you are giving the search engines exactly what they want.

The more articles you write and submit to your blog the more potential traffic it can bring to you. Therefore this can be a very good article marketing tactic for you to follow.

2. Not only should you write and submit articles to your blog you should bookmark your blog posts as well. Using a service such as Only Wire is a quick way to get your articles into a large number of directories with one click.

Only Wire allows you to list the title, URL, tags, and summary of your article before you submit it to the online directories. We are talking about directories such as Digg, Stumbleupon and others.

Search engines love these directories and spider them every day. Therefore the more blog posts you are bookmarking the more you are going to get search engines coming back to your blog. Over time this can become very valuable backlinks both for search engine bait and for new readers.

3. Join Free Traffic System and get blog articles posted for you. This is a way to get automatic content added on a consistent basis.

You can also write articles and submit them to other blogs in the system. This is a good way to build back links to your own blog as well. The more articles you're getting into other people's blogs it becomes natural traffic growth in the eyes of a search engine.

4. Become a guest blogger and write for other blog owners. Millions of blogs need content and if you're willing to write fresh content for them they would be willing to post your article in their blog.

Of course you get to include a resource box at the end of your article that includes a link back to your website. Just by letting other bloggers know you are available you can quickly build up a group of blogs to write for.

These are all good reasons why you should submit articles to blogs as a valuable article marketing tactic. This is just another good way to get more mileage out of your articles.
