Article directories are sites that store free articles. These articles are normally put there by whoever possesses the copyright to them as a publicity technique. Each article has the owners resource box localised under it so that those who finally read the article will know who published it (or at least who owns it) and will be capable to get into contact or visit their site for more information.

Articles directories are a good place to put your articles so that they'll make you money. By employing this process, people who are interested in your product or service will see your article, see you as an expert in the field, and will visit your site. Even if you can't drop a line or don't have any knowledge on the topic on which you are advertising (for instance if you operate an affiliate site), you are able to always employ a writer to do the work for you. Acquiring quality articles written will be costly up front, but they'll pay for themselves very fast, either through affiliate sales or marketing your personal services, and everything from then on is pure lucre.

Lets look at a real life case. Suppose that you ...
... are an accountant operating from home. You write an article on an accounting subject and place it on several article directories. Those who are searching the theme you wrote on will read your article, view that you have the knowledge and skill that's required to do a task for them, and visit your site or contact you via email. Your article just made you a new customer who may employ your services on a regular basis, but will definitely make you good money at least once.

Additionally, since you have placed it on a free article directory, other people who have affiliate sites about accounting will use your article for their sites. Since they must attach your resource box to it, this will get you even further exposure for every site that re-posts your article. This because you will be benefiting from the traffic that they get to their site.

There are a lot of article directories out there for you to use. Your best bet is to place a copy of each of your articles on every one for highest exposure. It will eventually help to get a lot of traffic and customers to your site, which will result in new orders and more revenue.
