Articles really do help your web site

As part of any Search Engine Optimisation programme SiteWeave undertake we recommend that the owners of web sites write one or more articles about their business. Articles need to be of a general nature and not mention any company or product names - these, and contact details (email address and web site address) are included in the "Resource Box" which follows the article.

SiteWeave normally suggest that articles are submitted to between three and five article publishing web sites and we will also add the articles to the client's web site.

Articles on your web site can be found by searching Google (see below) and may also be copied and displayed elsewhere on the Internet. Crucially, when article are copied the "Resource Box" is also copied and thus the client's contact details are spread even further afield.

Articles added to the client's web site provide useful, informative and authoritative content which visitors to the web site will recommend to others and also return to read themselves. Of particular use are articles that provide advice on buying or choosing a product or service.

In addition the articles provide an opportunity to add more key words, thus raising the profile of the web site.
