This is like a crash course in getting traffic and I hope that people appreciate it. It deserves 5 stars. Although submitting to Ezine Articles might seem to be a battle, I notice that very often articles posted on Ezine Articles are listed on the first page of Google organic search. I have to conclude that Ezine Articles is still a heavyweight in the battle to get high rankings and so have to be given due credit. Not lame at all, Arindam.

I haven't read the author's article yet but Isnare claims they change the article a bit for each submission. My own feelings is the submitting to the top few is sufficient. I concede to any opinions the author has however. Rick Isnare has reported some delays they state they are working on them. I've only used their service a few times.

If you want your site visitors to submit your site to those social bookmarking services then you may paste that code on your site, but I use a different service for that purpose: http://www.addthis.com/ You may also want to check http://www.addtoany.com/ (mainly for blogs) Hope this helps. :) Arindam Michael,

After I follow your instructions there is some html code created beneath the list of the social sites. Am I to publish that code onto my site for this service to work properly - or is that code independent of the submission process? Thanks and very helpful article. Michael Arindam

You maybe right about that one but what I know is that there ARE sites which decline .exe files unless they are zipped. In this age of viruses and Trojans, .exe file is considered to be a security risk while .zip file is supposed to be more secure. You will notice that some online file storage services and even some web hosts don't allow you to upload .exe files for this very reason. Plus .zip is a universally accepted format so there is nothing wrong in using this format for all directories. If any directory declines it, I won't do business with them. But like I said, I am yet to come across one :) What I do is use the .exe extension when filling up the details about the freeware, but the main download file remains in .zip format. It has worked for me, so far! ;) Arindam P.S. Being a programmer is obviously an advantage. I wish I were one too :P Hi Rick,

I wouldn't recommend using any mass article submission service though. Read <a href="http://arindamchakraborty.com/duplicate-content-code-cracked" rel="nofollow">my article</a> to know why. Mass submission softwares such as <a href="http://www.findw.net/go/articlepostrob.html" rel="nofollow">article post robot</a> are still better since you can select a certain number of sites to submit your articles to. But nothing beats manual submission or hiring a VA to do the article submission. :) Arindam Hi Andy,
