We got a site through real estate web design and we are now doing SEO. Are there any good article submission companies that someone can recommend? Please help.

Thank you

You most likely need to be more concerned with Link Relevancy. What this means is sites that link to yours are relevant to the keywords/content on for/on your website. The more relevant links into your website the better off you are with Google that is for sure.

SEO is easier said than done.

The article directory is already PR4 after only a month or so, and the SERPS are bringing traffic to the articles. Combine that with the on-site traffic to our articles and you could say that the traffic is quite good after such a short period of time. Our most viewed article has been viewed over 1,200 times already. Pretty good free publicity, I'd say.

Thats pretty impressive for only one month. really what i mean is does the individual articles rank well in the serps? The only reason why i ask is because the page the actual link is on is what really counts. Good job on the page 4 rank.

I haven't checked individual article pages to be honest. The feedback from users has been great, the authors are enjoying new publicity, and I'm pleased. You can't go wrong with it!

lol. Keep it coming, Donte! It could take minutes (when we see them come in) and it could be a few days. Typically, if the article is good, it is approved right away. If there are issues, I'll take a few days to approve because we give feedback.
