Undertaking an article campaign is truly something of a double edged sword, as a well written article can perform two functions. Firstly, it can drive highly targeted traffic to your websites. Internet marketers have been using articles for this purpose for quite some time now, but what about Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)?
