Just what are the Benefits of Submitting Articles to E-Zines

E-zine advertising is perhaps one of the most underused forms of promotion. It is a good idea to do your homework, before launching your viral marketing campaign. Article writing and publishing has become the latest buzz in the internet website marketing world. The name of the game as far as Internet marketing

More than one online article author has said that on the Internet in online article submission websites there are some really "crappy articles" out there. This is their direct words in describing less than acceptable content. Of course there are also some really good "serious" online articles too, so let's not jump to too many conclusions here.

Myself, I have written thin content articles for the pop culture crowd with little if any real substance and I have written some very serious articles as well. Yet, I totally see it too and understand the dilemma myself since I often write some of both types of articles. But if this is a push-pull thing then perhaps there should be two websites for each top online article submission website?

One for "trite" articles and one for serious articles, with a section for full-on "white papers" or borderline "research papers" with serious eBooks available splitting sales with authors?

It seems that those who write the better more serious articles would have a thing or two to say about the garbage articles, I cannot blame them and have complained myself. Of course like most, I have adjusted my content downward slightly to:

A.) fit in and;

B.) meet the expectations of the Internet Surfers who are shallow often in their thought processes.

Then there is the issue of quality such as punctuation, spelling and sentence structure. Indeed, I myself have worked hard to watch the spelling etc, and make sure to bring one decent point at least to the reader in every article.

The endless "get rich quick" or "Get a Date" articles are prolific, but not just on the top online submission websites, actually all over the Internet. Apparently because people like them, that is the average populi or teenager surfer. They are humans and that is what the masses are, happy humans doing their thing, procreating more of the same?

You know there is a market for serious articles and excellent content, I am a reader who likes the good stuff, but realize if you write for that market, that yiu are writing to 5-10% of the population and the other 90-95% seems to enjoy at least some of the fluff, BS articles and 50% just love them?
