Hello there

I've written quite a long, and interesting article called:

'Marketing 4 hosting companies'

At first I was thinking about selling it, but then I realized that it would be better if I'll publish it on several web sites.

So any idea what is the best site to publish such an article? I'm interested in the highest amount of traffic for findsp.com of course....

I was approached by Sitepoint.com but they are interested in the article and the copyright which means that if I publish it on their site I won't be able to publish it anywhere else.

So what do you think?

Thank you very much

Looking forward hearing from you.

I would highly recommend SitePoint as a place to publicize. I get nearly 1,000 click throughs every day from my various articles, and it is one of the best places on the web for web-related info.

1000 clicks per day? wow, that's better than any campaign I have ever had - what were your articles about?
Also how does it work? do they publish all the articles in the newsletter? Because my articles is targeted to hosting company owners..

I've published 10 articles, hence the higher clicks. Anyways, simply contact editor@sitepoint.com (her name is Georgina, say hi from me).

Your article will feature on the home page for about a week, and will also appear in the Tech Times which goes out to nearly 100,000 people.

Great free advertising, and I personally think it is well worth the "cost" of giving them exclusive content.

Another great place to write for is www.alistapart.com, but I'm not sure if they want web-hosting related content. They do NOT require exclusive content, though they would like it exclusively for 2 weeks. I have received more than 3,000 click-throughs from my first article there.
