Article Writing

Article writing actually serves a dual purpose online.

While it is true that writing articles is a well known link baiting technique most website owners don't do article writing for that.

Articles are actually a great source of web content. And since the search engines all prefer a website that is always growing and changing they will look favorably upon your site if it grows because of articles.

But hosting articles on one's own site is not the only way to build links. There are a variety of article submission services, both free and paid, which will accept articles written by you.

Such services can also be used for link building.

Finally, and related to link baiting, a compelling article can get picked up by news services and sites such as digg and reddit. Not only will these sites drive traffic to the site, but they also encourage other sites to link to your articles.
