Todays “Quickie” is terrific, easy way to get links and boost traffic to your articles! This is from a post in the “War Room” on the Warrior forum.
BTW- this works not just for EzineArticles, but for most article directories, and can be adapted for your Squidoo Lenses and other sites.
How To Get 100’s of Links To Your EzineArticles
This is a very simple trick I have seen many articles authors using but I have never read about it here or in any ebooks. EzineArticles.com already have a high PR and if you manage to get more links pointing to your particular articles, they will have more chances of showing up high in the rankings. You know the SEO part right?
Here’s how you do it:
Go to your expert author page where you see all your articles listed. The url is something like this:
http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Author_Name
Right next to the header mentioning your name and your author status, you will find an “RSS icon”. Simply copy the url the icon points to.
Now, use this RSS url and submit it to the large number of free RSS directories available of the web and you have 100’s of links pointing to your articles in no time.
Here’s a list of RSS directories to start with:
55 Active RSS Directories to Help Promote Your Feeds!
(not my site - got it from Google search)
I hope my above trick helps you in your Article Marketing efforts.
If you follow the above ‘formulas’, you will begin to generate traffic, it will build steadily, and your SERPs ranking will improve steadily.
Guaranteed.

Hi Michael, great tip. Thanks!
I have a question: If you have a blog then could you submit your blog or a post’s RSS feed to all these directories? Will that help?

Thanks for stopping by, Peter -
Yup, you got it! Anything that you have that has a feed can - and should! - be submitted to as many of these directories as you are able.
For a blog, you would just submit the single feed URL, and it will then automatically pick up each new post.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the tip — I’ll give that a try!
Question on RSS feed directories…do you recommend a paid software product like RSS Submit, or do you simply go with manual directory submissions?
(I’ve also heard that Ed Dale had a free RSS directory submission tool as part of this year’s 30DC, but I’ve not checked that out to verify)
Thanks!
Alan

This is really useful. I have been doing it for a while. Took me some time to discover it, though. I haven’t seen this tip mentioned in many articles. Great stuff.
