Article sites that allow you to publish your work and have it republished on multiple sites are great tools for free exposure and building incoming links.

Here's an example of a simple article that was just published and includes references to Repspace:

I agree that articles are a very fast way to:

• Give you credibility in your field
• Build your business brand
• Generate traffic to your site
• Build backlinks to your website
• Create free advertising

If you have not yet begun writing articles to promote your business, I highly recommend that you give it a try.
Here are a few of my examples:

If anyone needs any pointers on how to get started, I'd be happy to help!

I agree 110%.  The great thing about article marketing is it's content rich information, provided it is a well written article, that will may be picked up by several site owners.  Once your well crafted article is out there, who knows how far it may spread.  In a term, it can become viral driving traffic to your site that have already decided that you are an authority or knowlegeable person.  This creates a great deal of credability for you and somewhat prequalified visitors to your webspace.

I encourage all my site visitors to consider this low-budget but effective maketing method.
