Not only that you would look like a real authority in the topic you have discussed; you also get additional back links the moment other people capture your article for reprinting on their own website.

2. To entice visitors.

If you think that after putting up your million dollar website, visitors would just keep pouring in, you are terribly mistaken. Unless you’ve got the mechanism of website giants Google, Yahoo, and Msn, your website may take days, or even months before a genuine visitor surfs over. So how do you address that problem? Give Internet users a teaser of what you can offer. Write a good article or a press release about your website and put it conveniently on sites where there are a lot of traffic. And so when somebody stumbles upon what you wrote and are intrigued about it, you will finally have those visitors constantly stopping by.

3. To disseminate information.

 The Internet is one big information source. In fact, everything you need to know is up there, uploaded minutes right after when it happened. It may not take long for it to fully replace television as the primary media source. And so to do your share of sending out good, reliable, and important information to the rest of the world, you got start writing that article and publish them on credible places.
