Becoming An Article Assassin
Writing articles can be an enormous method that can be used to create links. There are now thousands of free article directories online, each of which will take your links and happily link back to you.
Article Marketer does a very good job of distributing your articles for those of you that have a small promotional budget. They send your article to thousands of sites, giving it a ton of exposure and generating a lot of links in the process.
Writing an article is quite simple. One of the best methods I’ve used to create easy articles is rewriting articles I’ve already used on my sites. It only takes about 10 minutes to do it that way, and the leverage you gain from all the links is remarkable.
