Pro Articles

Pro Articles is a new free Article Directory that has been set up to help publishers get quality backlinks for their content. All submissions are manually moderated with a minimum word count and a maximum of two outgoing links per article.

Writing articles that link to your content, whether it be on Hubpages, Squidoo or your blogs is a great way to establish authority with Google and increase your page rank.

So what does Pro Articles have to offer?

Content is King and never more so since the latest changes to the Google Algorithm. Recently some sites that rely on user submissions have been penalised due to the poor quality content that has been contributed.

"Poor quality content" can be defined as content that provides little (or no) useful or unique information and provides visitors to the pages with junk information linking to more junk sites.

Various topics are also being penalised by Google and from the day it was launched Pro Articles has had a very clear policy on what topics will not be allowed. Other Article Directories have had to take drastic action to ensure that poor quality submissions will not result in their being penalised.

Approach your Article Writing the same way as you would a Hub on Hubpages. Do some keyword research to ensure that you are writing about topics that are being searched for, using the keyphrases that people are searching for.

Do not pepper your article with Affiliate Links.

Use your keyphrases in a natural way to help the narrative flow and make it easy to read.

Do not use article spinning software - you will spend as much time tweaking the results as you will if you write a completely new article.

Make sure you read the Terms and Conditions on the site you are using. Some sites have a minimum word count and a maximum number of outgoing links.

Although you may primarily be writing the article to link to your other content, make sure that your visitors will gain or learn something without having to click on any links.
