How Come Article Directory Service Take Your Home Address?
Site owners online use an article directory service to gain both traffic and free backlinks for their website or blog. Marketers are likely to use more than one. But I have noticed that some will let you publish articles with just a user name and password while others want to know where you live. So I just thought that why would an article directory need your address? What purpose do they want with it?
Well some article directories will mail you little items from time to time like coffee mugs, hats and notepads with their company name on it. Do you need any of that stuff? Of course not.
I could understand if the article directory were going to pay you for your article by check then it would make sense. But I do not know of any article directories that pays.
Then there are directories that sell your address to companies that will send you junk mail and such. Have you created an account for a bunch of article directories and noticed an increase in junk mail? That is probably how you you got it.
They surely not coming over your residence to visit you. Eat dinner and be your friend and keep you company. So why do they need your address? Who truely knows the answer but I would not give up my address until I checked them out carefully.
They are an article directory service and they should ask for quality articles and not your address. The deal is that authors give you content and in return you get backlinks to your website and hopefully needed traffic. Where that writer live should not matter. If they were not satisfied with your article then they can easily reject it and they do not need your address to do that. They are not going to call the article cops to my residence right?
So the next time your thinking about registering for another article directory service that requires your home address just do a little research on them first. See what problems people may have had before you give up your residency.
