Ever run into this? You've placed your website up, but you're not seeing the traffic you had first envisioned. You believe you've tried practically everything humanly possible, from search engines submissions to reciprocal linking, but it's still not working.

Well, listen up! Though reciprocal linking is helpful when it comes to increasing rankings amongst the millions of websites on various search engines sites like MSN, Yahoo, Or Google, it can a very slow process.

But don't worry. There is a faster and more effective way to increase your search engine rankings and boost your traffic at the same time, using article writing.

Article writing is a great, easy and faster way to promote your site, your products and services. You simply choose a topic to write about that has relevance to the products and services on your website and follow these basic guidelines.

1) Resource Box with Link- While an article does wonders, there is a specific fundamental aspect that must be considered in the content, your website link. After you finish writing your article, at the end of the article, create what is called a resource box. This box should contain information about you or an offer for more info, a free report or something to go along with the article, as well as a link to your website.

2) Article Directory Submission - After creating your article, you then need to submit it to article directories. You can also surf on over to helpful submission services like those offered at http://Isnare.com, and allow them to distribute your handiwork, giving webmasters the permission to publish it on their own site, with your resource box intact. The results are you get reciprocal links, one good site at a time to help with human traffic and search engine traffic. These links can often turn into dozens and more backlinks, all from one little article over time.

3) Craft Good Articles - So, what determines how and how many webmasters will take your article and publish it on their own site? Here are some tips:

• You need to submit a good quality article in terms of writing and interest.
• The headline must be catchy and grab the reader's attention.
• The topic must be one of interest for the targeted reading audience.

If you are wondering why you should post your written articles on other sites and allow others to use them, there are several good reasons:

• Submission sites see more traffic on a daily basis
• You will gain valuable backlinks to draw in traffic to your site
• You will save on your own bandwidth
• The exposure you gain through others reading and posting on their website, creates a higher search engine ranking for your own site.

Many successful websites depend on article writing and marketing for their success. On the average, people submit up to two articles weekly to help increase traffic immensely.

In short, the more you continue to write articles, the higher your traffic will jump. This traffic will be coming from two different areas: first the articles, as people read them and come to you for more information, and second the websites, because your ranking improves with each backlink from other sites.
