How to Submit to Article Directory the Right Way

Every article directory has different requirement regarding the length of the article. The article should contain at least 250 words. However, it is recommended that the article has 400 – 700 words. The minimum word count requirement is listed in the submission guidelines. The article should not contain more than 5000 words. If the article is too long, it will be rejected by the article directory. Furthermore, no visitor will be interested in reading article that is long. People want to read article that is short so that they can skim through the points. The shorter the article the higher the conversion rate will be.

When you provide a lot of information in the article, the visitors will be less interested in visiting your website. The title of the article should not be repeated in the content. The content of the article must be related on the article.

Many article directories allow you add summary to the article. The summary is a short description about the article. The summary should contain two to five sentences. It should not contain too many words otherwise people won’t read it. If you don’t want to write a unique summary, you can use the first paragraph of the article as summary. Using the first paragraph as summary can cause duplication problem.
