Using Ehow to promote your blog

[classicalgeek]

Last week I signed up to write articles for ehow, because they pay you by article views and some other super-secret stuff. I discovered that in the months since I had visited ehow, it now has "friends" and a link to your website or blog in your profile.

Then, as I started writing articles, I discovered that you can also put links at the end of the articles as resources. I found out that ehow is heavily indexed by Google and so my articles started showing up within hours.

I just thought this may be of interest to other bloggers. By using Yahoo! answers to drive traffic to your ehow articles, and then using your ehow articles to drive traffic to your blogs, you get the one-way backlinks that are so desirable.
