How to get Free Traffic using Blog Directories

Blog Directories idea actually came out when most website directories don't accept blogs to be submitted in the website directories. And that's why people create blog submission to collect all blogs contents.

More and more blogs are created everyday. To enhance the promotion of blogs, bloggers usually submit their blogs to blog directories. When a blog is submitted to a blog directory with high page rank, the blog will get a backlink from that blog directory. That's why blogger loves blog directory submission and treat this as a must after having a blog. After every post of new article, you need to ping blog directory, so that it will send a crawler to see if you have updated your blog.

There are many free blog directories where you can submit your blogs, such as: technorati.com, bloggapedia.com, digg.com, blogcatalog.com, blogtoplist.com. For more information about how to get free traffic using Blog Directories.

PDF files are usually used as e-book or e-manual. You can't edit PDF files directly. This means you can't take the contents and use them in Word Processor. But, this doesn't mean that there is no way to get the contents. By using certain conversion programs you can turn those PDF files into document formats like RTF, DOC or TXT.

There's an online service which helps you convert PDF files and Image text files into real document format like I mentioned before. Image text files are text files that are converted into image to avoid from editing. Image text files can also be the scanned result of a text or document. This is like the image that resulted from your scanner of a page of document. Of course by scanning, the result will be image, until you use OCR programs. OCR stands for Optical Character Reader.

Ok, let's go back to the PDF online converter. This website also has a feature to convert image in JPG and TIF format into document. That means your scanned document is editable after the OCR process or conversion.

To start your conversion online, you first need to sign up an account at Online Document Conversion. Then, you'll have a free account. One e-mail for one account with 5 credits (five times of conversion) for the conversion of either image file or pdf files.You can see the picture below for more details of the conversion formats. The result of the conversion will be sent to your e-mail. If you want unlimited conversion, then you'll need to pay for it. Just upload a pdf or image file and start your conversion now.
