We all know how important articles are for the promotion of our web sites. Knowing this, it should not be hard to realize how profitable it could be to own an article directory.
When you start your pursuit of finding an article directory script you must do a little research. If you are happy with a directory that is just like most others then you can just download one of free scripts that are out there. If you would rather have a unique article directory that the SE's love then you will need to find one with good options.
There are very few article directory scripts out there that offer a lot of good features but they are out there if you look. Here are a few features that you should make sure the script you choose has:
- Comments - If a viewer reads the authors article and likes it they should be able to give them a good comment. This is a plus for everyone involved. The author gets kudos for a well-written article. The viewer gets to say what he or she has on his or her mind and you offer this great article so it looks good on you as well.
- Article Rating - If an article is extremely valuable then others can give it a high rating. If it is not worth reading then the viewers can give it a bad rating and let others know. This is a feature that most article directory scripts have and it is one tha
t yours should have as well.
- Multiple Feature Admin Panel - This is a must-have feature. If you cannot properly manage your article directory script then your directory will fall behind. The admin panel must be well organized and easy to use. Also, it should have good features like automatic email reply for articles accepted and denied, SEO tools to check your SE stats and easy to implement RSS feeds.
- Built-in Ad Placement - This will save you loads of time if you plan on monetizing your site with Google Adsense and/or affiliates. The article directory script that you choose should have the ability to easily place the ads of your choice to a single spot that will show up on all pages.
These are just a few of the many features that you can find when choosing the article directory script that is right for you. Whether you choose a free script that everyone else uses or not; be sure that yours is very unique and SE friendly. Furthermore, before you purchase your article directory script see about free installation and support. There are some companies that offer free installation and support for so long after installation.
