I have a few questions about article marketing. I created my first website a few months ago, using wordpress and hosting it on my own domain. I picked an adsense-ready wordpress theme and had someone personalize it for me, and then I uploaded the theme onto Godaddy (a really complex and torturous process, so I am desperately trying to find an easier way, but that's a topic for another thread.)

I wrote some articles on ezinearticles.com, and a few on associatedcontent.com, and started getting some traffic - a few dozen visitors a day, and a decent clickthrough rate of about 6-8 percent.

My questions - is there any particular mass article submission process that anyone here would recommend? (As in, either software or a site like isnare or phantomwriters which you pay to submit articles for you?)

And if I've written 20 articles for ezinearticles over two months time and am now averaging a few dozen visitors a day, is that good or bad? Does it mean that this niche isn't that good and I should look for a different niche? I'm a good writer (I'm a reporter by trade), my site has all original, informative content, I get some return visitors...I just wonder if I should be getting more traffic. My site's been up for three months total - and I got ZERO traffic for the first month, until I started submitting articles to ezinearticles.com
