Posting your articles on the most popular article marketing sites may be good idea, but they do not pay you in any way other than directing some traffic to your site and’or giving you a byline. There are a few sites you can use for article marketing, that also promise to pay you for articles, share their revenue with you, or pay you per 1000 views of your articles. You won’t get rich off of these sites either, but if you’re a prolific writer, it may pay to submit your articles to Bukisa, HubPages, Helium, Suite101, eHow, demandstudios, AssociatedContent, Xomba, or Squidoo. But then again, if you’re a prolific writer, why not start your own blog and keep all the advertising revenue for yourself?

There are hundreds of article marketing sites on the web, but if you’re going to go through the trouble of writing articles, or buying articles, why not submit them to the most popular sites? Probably the most popular article marketing site is ezinearticles.com. Other popular article marketing sites are goarticles.com, isnare.com and articlecity.com. The whole idea about article marketing is to have your articles copied and posted on other websites – hopefully with your back link intact – so be prepared to see your content elsewhere on the web.
