A simple yet very sneaky way of getting a lot of backlinks to your articles it to submit your author URL to free RSS directories. To find your author URL, you simply go to your expert author page, the link will look something like this:

http://ezinearticles.com/?expert_bio=Vil_Pietersen

On that page is a RSS feed icon, of you hold the mouse over the icon you will see the destination for your RSS feed URL, this is what you want. Mine is:

http://feeds.ezinearticles.com/expert/Vil_Pietersen.xml

Once you have that link, simply search google for free RSS directories and submit your URL to them, the more directories you submit to, the more automatic backlinks you get, every article you submit, meaning the more traffic you will get from your efforts. Simples!!
