Article Directories
A great way to drive traffic to your website is writing articles related to your website’s category and then post your article to 100s of different article directories. What’s an article directory? Articlesalley.com is a typical article directory where you could submit your articles. Hoewver, to submit to 100s of these article directories you need to use a service like iSnare that will submit your articles for a small fee.
Article submission will help you two ways: First you get traffic from the articles, and second, you get to put a link to your website in your articles creating many “free” backlinks to your website.
But to make article submission really pay off, you need to submit at least 2 – 10 articles a week on a regular basis. If you are not a prolific writer, I would suggest hiring someone from India or the Philippians to churn out articles for you. You often can get nice articles written for $5 a piece by going overseas. As you build the total number of articles you submit each week, your traffic will begin to increase each week.
Also, try to incorporate the hot search topics of the moment in some of your articles. For example, Britney Spears is currently one of the top ten searches (isn’t she always). So if you had a site that sold chocolate, you would want to have an article about Britney Spear’s favorite chocolate. American Idol is also a hot search, so you would want to incorporate American Idol in one of your articles. This strategy will bring extra traffic to your website. You can find the web’s hottest searches at Buzz Yahoo.

If you want to do this the easy way you can use PLR articles and rewrite them. As long as the articles do not resemble the original you can submit these to directories and drive traffic! The key is you need to make the articles your own. They must be in your own words and not a ripp off - otherwise it will backfire and you'll get dumped by the better directories.

Online article marketing is the best way to advertise your product and carry updated information to your visitors. This is one of the SEO strategies to get one-way links.
It is better to hire any professional writer or consult a company providing article writing and article submission services.
