If you're an article marketer, you already know that generating traffic from your articles is probably the best traffic generation method on the internet.

However the problem is that distributing your articles to each of the article directories take a lot of time. And that's why more article marketers are now turning to using article submitters. It doesn't only save them time... It also helps reduce their effort significantly.

By reading this article, you are also most probably looking for a faster way to submit your articles and to attract traffic to your websites.

That said...

If you're like most of the article marketers, you're probably feeling a little confused over which article submitter to use.

Well, you're not alone.

The truth is that there are several article submitters out there. However, not all of them are truly time-savers. Let me explain...

You see, article directories update their article submission process regularly. And what this means is that article submitter developers need to constantly update their software to keep it up to date.

However, most of them do not. And that's why you'll find even the once-famous article submitters out either outdated or they simply don't even work anymore.

So before you choose an article submitter for yourself, always make sure you do your research well.

Read unbiased reviews from article marketers, watch the demonstration videos and find out if the software can really save your time. The biggest problem many article marketers face is to deal with failing software and support.

It really zaps up your time and defeats the purpose of getting a software.

And to just to help point you in the right direction, here are some functions the article submission software you're looking for ought to have:

1. Submission to Specific Categories.

Most article submitters submit to general categories which are already flooded with spam articles. So smart webmasters no longer go for the "Internet Marketing" category when they can go into the specific categories such as "Site Promotion".

And this means that article marketers who are submitting their articles to the main categories are just wasting their time.

2. Submission to the top high ranking article directories.

These are the websites with low Alexa ranking (high traffic) and high Google Pagerank (maximum SEO benefits) to reap you maximum benefits for minimum time.

3. Fully automated submissions.

You see, most article submission services promise you full automation and the likes, but most of them don't deliver. Most still require you to click the "Submit" button for each of the website while some might even require you to specify the categories for each of the article directory, or input security codes.

And what this means is that you still need to be seated in front of your computer to click away.
