You've become infected.......
just ask my wife....
Sandra hates it when for lack of anything better to say... see uses one of my quotes....
Seriously... Linda is correct... natural effect is much, much better then submissions... let the SE's find you... that is not to say that you dont sprinkle cookie crumbs arouond the net to move things along...
go find a few good complentry websites... and ask to trade links... write articles and submit them to article directlies... (hint: I have an article directory or should i have said...shameless plug )
do a search for article directories... go visit some sites... make a list of site you want to submit to... try and get a sense of how long the site has been online... if it's new.. "plain jane"... few articles.. lots of ads, drowning out the real purpose ofthe site, "articles" good chance it'll be gone in a few months..
dont get caught up in the frenzy over doing bulk submissions... unless the sofware you use allows you to:
a: pick the sites you submit to
b: you get to pick the category or sub-category
do manual submissions... you want to find articles sites with a category niche that are a good fit...
doing manual submissions take time... but the effert will pay over time... I'm seeing lots a large influx of article sites currently... because it a hot fad... right now...
What I'm seeing is what happened to blogs.... a lot are jumping on... without looking at what is required to be successul.. in terms of time and money...
in 6 to 12 months thes same folks will abandon their articles sites as they did there blogs... and move to the next fad..
if you submit articles manually you get to pick the category or subcategory... most article site owners approve these requests if they are approperate...
give yourself 12 months before you start to see results.. if you do things "right" (smart) the time frame will be shorter...
like the saying.. "Rome wasnt built in a day..." it applies to everything is life..
HEY... linda... it's all your fault... I'm becoming a philosipher...
