Search directories barely bring you any traffic to your site, but how about article directories?  Do article directories bring you some traffic?

I doubt if many people actually go visit search directories like DMOZ, read site descriptions carefully and decide to go visit listed sites, but those who go visit article directories like ezinearticles.com actually read articles, don't they?  Also don't article directories bring you some traffic indirectly?  For example, if several of your articles are published on other sites, then don't they bring you some traffic?  Potentially?

8 articles have been approved and published.  I need to edit 1 article to get it approved.  I was unable to access the internet since Dec 7th to Dec 28th for variety of reasons, so I couldn't really make progress; I couldn't really write new articles.  I need to write many more articles to see what happens.

If you think hard, there are plenty of things to write about.  Writing a good article is totally different though.

The best way to write an article - the topic must be something you are interested in. That's how I do it.

Of course, sometimes there is also a need to write article on topics which you have less interest in. Do more research and then write in point form.
