Simplifying article submission

Almost all articles about marketing your blog tells us that we should publish our articles to the article directories. For those uninformed, article directories are the places where one can submit his article for sharing for free. Articles usually have certain title, category, summary, keywords, resource part and body. It is obvious what those parameters are for, but I will elaborate it anyway in another article.

It is wise to type your articles in some document editor like Google Docs, Open Office or MS Office. The structure of your articles should be like this:

Title: ...
Category: ...
Summary: ...
Keywords: ...
Resource: ...
Body: ...

Having article in this format, you can submit your articles very fast using copy paste. Here is an example:
------------------------------------------

Title:
How to find ideas for writing using Google?

Category
: Creative writing

Summary: Using Google search you can find what you want. You could even find an idea for your next article.

Keywords: creative writing, writing assistance, using Google

Resource: Flavious Maximus is a writer who writes about creative writing and you can find his articles on his blog

Body: You can use random word generator a few times: for example you could use http://www.zokutou.co.uk/randomword/. I tried it in order to get three words and here they are: moderation, elite, tourist. Then you can type them in Google and find web pages with these words. After reading several pages you might find an idea about your article.
