They also provide a service entitled article leverage which allows you to alter parts of your article, so that a slightly different version of your article appears at each different article directory.

ABOUT SUBMITYOURARTICLE.COM

As I have explained above SubmitYourArticle.Com is an article distribution service which distributes your article for you and also comes with the additional article leverage service which alters your article slightly for each new directory it appears in. To review this service I will talk you through the typical article distribution process using SubmitYourArticle.Com and article leverage then provide an overall opinion on the service.

So to begin you log into your account and click the 'Submit an Article' button. You are then presented with a form requiring you to enter; the article title, the article itself (in plain text format), your resource box/author bio box in both plain text and HTML format (useful if you want your links to be anchor text links), a short description of the article, the article keywords, the article URL (for example if you have published the article on your website you may want to enter that URL here) and the article category. Then you preview your article and if everything's OK then you can save it. Overall, this stage is pretty simple and is no different from entering your article into a normal article directory form.

Once your article has been saved you have the options to edit it, publish it or delete it. At this stage you may also notice one of SubmitYourArticle.Com's additional features - Article Boost. If there are any potential problems with your article that may prevent them from being published, Article Boost will detect them and notify you here. You can then make the necessary edits to your article. I've found this to be a pretty useful feature because sometimes my article is too long or not formatted correctly, so it's good to know this right away.

After this you will want to submit your article. You have the option to submit it normally meaning the same article goes out to all directories or via Article Leverage which means an altered version of your article is sent to each article directory. If you choose normal distribution then you're finished - that's all you have to do to submit your article. However, if you choose article leverage there are a few more stages. I generally choose article leverage to avoid the issue of duplicate content.

If you submit via Article Leverage the first screen will ask you to enter two or more variations of your article title. You just think of as many as you can and then wack them in here. Next you are asked to enter a variation or two on your existing introduction. Then your asked to enter variations of random sentences within your article. After this you are asked to enter variations on your plain text and HTML resource boxes which is useful if one article can potentially promote multiple websites. Once you've done this you are taken to a preview page where you can view potential variations of your article. Once your happy with everything you can complete the final step and distribute your article. Overall, article leverage takes an additional 20-30 minutes but I think it is time well spent.

So that's all their is to the SubmitYourArticle.Com service. Using Article Leverage I would say it takes a maximum of 30 minutes to submit your article - a significant time saver if you compare the time it would take for you to submit your article to every article directory manually. I've also got to compliment the customer service at SubmitYourArticle.Com. When I started out I had a query and they responded promptly and were very helpful.

So do I have any criticisms? Well my first criticism is that they limit the number of articles you can submit each month to 8. Although I haven't managed to write more than 8 in a month it would be nice to submit unlimited articles each month for the fee. Secondly, your article distribution credits do not carry over into the next month. If you only submit 5 articles in month 1 then you cannot submit 11 in month 2. This is quite annoying if you are a bit slow with your article writing one month.

Overall, I highly recommend the service. Although the limits on article distribution are slightly annoying it is such a relief to just enter your article into the form and then let SubmitYourArticle.COm do the rest. Manually submitting articles used to take me hours but now I can have unique versions of my article out there within 30 minutes. Plus, they also provide you with a lot of additional information and advice concerning article marketing. I've learnt a lot from the SubmitYourArticle.Com newsletter which has helped me improve my articles, titles and resource boxes. SubmitYourArticle.Com have provided me with lots of new information, a great service and saved me huge amounts of time which in my opinion is well worth the monthly fee.

GOOD POINTS

• Seriously reducest the time to submit an article to hundreds of directories.

• Article Boost identifies potential problems with your article that you may have missed yourself. - Article Leverage allows you to distribute unique versions of your article to all the directories. I can't even imagine how long this would have taken manually.

• The additional resources on article marketing are really useful and have taught me a lot.

BAD POINTS

• You can only submit 8 articles per month.

• You cannot carry over article credits to the next month so if you do not submit 8 articles each month you are losing out.
