Many authors are linking to their own profile pages, which of course helps to get more search engine attention and exposure to your articles.

But an issue that many miss is that authors with more than 15 articles have paginated pages.

Jan Richards Articles for example, an author since 16th July 2008 has 66 articles

Google in particular isn’t very impressed if the only way it can spider its way to your articles is via a pagination number, so if you can link to your own articles, it will help your own promotion efforts. How:-

Well……

1) Hyperlink from other articles within ArticleAlley - using anchor text within the body of your articles
this is particularly helpful as your articles get used around the web.
2) Link from your own websites and blogs
3) Post on Forums using the url of your internal profile pages
4) Social boomark your pages using services such as folkd.com
5) Write articles which contain links to your sections on Article Alley and post them to other Article Directories
