Article directories are websites that allow for free articles to be posted. Anyone can post articles there for no cost at all, so long as it is of good quality material (i.e.: No soliciting for pornography and other lewd material). These articles are posted there by whoever owns them and copyrights are not transferred to the website. Your name and credentials are visible to those who peruse your article, so they will also get to know you. For even more specific marketing, you can attach your email, contact number and photo so potential clients know exactly who to contact.
Interested clients will view you as an expert in your field and thus visit your website (assuming you do have one) Thus, your command of the language must be good to give a favorable impression. If you cannot write well, then hiring a professional writer is a smart choice. If you impress potential clients fro your article, then income will come rolling in no time-thus covering your costs for hiring a professional writer.
Posting articles in article directories are a good, and free form of marketing that you should make use of. If your services are global, then so much the better as the internet can pull in customers from you all over the world, thereby increasing your customer base.
For example, if you are a freelance writer working from home, you may post one or several articles that you've written online to showcase your penmanship. Those who are looking for the things that you have written or looking for your expertise will peruse your articles, and see for themselves your formidable skills. Then, they may decide to contact you for help, and generate more income for you. If you do a good job for them, chances are that they will recommend others to you, thereby increasing your customer base.
Once you have posted your article online, others who have similar interests will link you as an associate and will use your article for their sites (with your permission, of course). This is beneficial as you get to reach even more people-the traffic from their websites!
There are many free article directories out there for you to use. Do find those which promises the most traffic as you do want to reach as many people as possible. At the same time, don't discard those with less traffic-as long as there's traffic then that should be fine.
