I just had a potential client ask me if I was familiar with submitting articles through the website submityourarticle.com. I looked into it, and it supposedly automates the process, submitting slightly different versions of your article (you provide the variations, like a different title, different opening paragraphs, etc.) to publishers of e-zines and online article directories.

I'm considering trying it out but was wondering if anyone else had any experiences with this service, either positive or negative, before I shell out any money. The site has tons of testimonials but I thought I'd check with my trusted pals here at VAF!

I don't know anything about the site but I have a comment! The other class I'm taking online besides the html is an article writing class and according to the material, you're the one who should be getting paid for your articles, not the other way around! Why should you be "shelling out money"? There's absolutely no cost to you to send article queries to magazines and ezines! Sounds fishy to me!

Thanks for your response! As I understand it, the whole premise behind this is that with a few clicks of the mouse, the service submits your article to hundreds of article and ezine directories and various other publishers who are looking for content. Considering that I can earn the monthly fee in less than one hour, yet manually submitting my article to hundreds of sites would take me much longer than an hour, it seems to be worthwhile from a time-saving aspect.

But I just wanted to get some input from others who might have used the service to see what they thought before I signed up. Is it a scam? Or is it a good service that can truly drive loads of interested visitors to my website (as it claims to be able to do)? Things that make you go hmm....

I suppose, if it's not TOO costly, it might be worth a shot, just to see what happens! I'll have to take a look now that you have my attention!! I may even run it by my instructor to see what she thinks and I'll get baack to you! I just wouldn't give them access to a credit card (lol) which could turn into a nightmare! I'll be very interested to see how this works for you, should you decide to try it!

Hi ladies!

Yes, I use this service and it is what it says it is. It will submit your article to hundreds of directories. The cost is $37/month... much cheaper than your time in manually submitting your article to various article directories.

I highly recommend it!
