When I first started blogging, I already knew how important the traffic and PR were. Now everyday there are still so many people talking about how to boost your blog traffic and PR for free.

In fact, it is quite simple – link building. The more links point to your blog, the higher search engine ranking you will get. There are many ways to do link building, but I’d like to recommend the article marketing strategy, it may be one of the most powerful ways to get links to your blog, and usually it is free.

In my another post A Killer Strategy of Internet Marketing – Article Marketing, I have already talked about what is article marketing quite well.

If you search on Google you may find thousands of websites which claim to be able to make your blog or website into a miracle success – only build it once, walk away, and reap the benefits for years. It is really attractive, to me it still is. It is natural, because when people first come into the field of blogging, they may want to make quick money so they will most likely trust them. But there is a day you will find the truth – there is no panacea at all. No work no gain.

If you trust there is a miracle success, that would be getting your blog listed in the top spots on main search engines. If have done this well, you probably already are very successful.

Submitting to search engines is quite simple, but it does not mean that Google will list your blog. You could increase your opportunity of listing in the top by building inbound links. Don’t even think about the link farms, because search engines are more smarter then before.

Search engines love to see is your link on another website or blog that contains related content. You could pay for them, but if it is possible why not get links for free? There are many article directories out there, what you need to do is just take some time to write articles and submit them to article directories.

When choosing article directories, make sure you consider these:

  – Does the article directory have a high PR?
  – Does the article directory have high traffic?
  – Will the article directory accept my article?

If you are a lazy man just like Clarky , this is prepared for you, 38 Article Directories Ordered by Alexa Ranking 2009.

Last word, submitting articles to high PR article directories will definitely help you get listed in search engines and help improve your blog PR. But most people are too lazy to write articles, what a pity!
