When it comes to search engine optimization, professional marketers know that distributing content in as little time possible to key locations on the internet is one of the biggest secrets to getting high search engine rankings. However, it is usually more difficult to submit SEO content manually. For example, if you are writing a 500-word article related to your niche, it would take you hours to research, create, edit, and distribute your content. The process, when repeated, becomes extremely slow and tedious (and therefore almost humanly impossible) for any person to endure. In short, submitting SEO content manually is too much work for so little return.

You can only reap the positive results of creating and distributing SEO content if you know how to leverage and automate your marketing efforts. By automating various aspects of your search engine optimization campaigns, you can do so much work with less effort, plus you will reap more returns in terms of profits! Most marketers choose to be the “lone ranger”, thinking that they could do it all by themselves without outside help. On the other hand, professional marketers use systems and tools that allow them to gain maximum leverage and do more work in less time. Here are some ways you can automate certain parts of your SEO campaigns:

1. Outsource the writing of your SEO content. You may love writing articles and blog posts on your own, but on a large scale, you have to explore the possibility of outsourcing the SEO writing tasks to somebody else. For example, you may want to have ten new articles written for you every month. A good solution would be to hire a freelance writer or virtual assistant who will do that task for you. Sure there is a cost involved in outsourcing, and you have to carefully instruct the freelancer at the beginning, but the returns are much bigger if you know how to distribute your content well.

2. Use Automated Article Submission Services. There are online services that allow you to automatically submit your SEO content to popular article directories and high-authority blogs online. Unique Article Wizard and SubmitYourArticle are two of the most well-known sites that offer these kinds of services (mention of trademarks in this article is not made for promotional purposes). Plus, you can choose to “spin” your article so that the SEO content will turn out to become a different version on each blog or article directory you post in. This is beneficial if you are trying to get backlinks and high search engine rankings.

3. Submit your SEO content to Ezine publishers. Ezines are online mailings which are regularly sent out to a group of subscribers who have an interest on a particular topic. The key for you is to find ezines in your niche, contact the owner of the Ezine, and negotiate the possibility of you sending out a one-time mailing of your article to their Ezine list. When your article gets mailed out, it could potentially reach hundreds of blog owners who would be willing to repost your article on their sites. As unique versions of your articles spread naturally through the web, you will find that you will generate more organic traffic to your website.
