PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 21, 2009 – Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Collectors, who love to share, have found a home at Collectibles-Articles.com. Many collectors are as expert in their fields as doctors, scientists or engineers are in theirs. This sociable lot is embracing the Internet as a way to share with like-minded collectors. An example of this is the website, Collectibles-Articles.com, which is designed specifically for expert collectors to exchange information on a staggeringly wide array of collectibles.

At Collectibles-Articles.com, expert collectors find valuable tools uniquely suited for finding the specific audience in search of the information they have to offer. Site Manager Jack Straw says that sets Collectibles-Articles.com apart. “There are hundreds of article directories out there. Publishing your articles on them will get you a link back to your website or blog, which is important, but you won’t get much else,” says Straw. “Collectibles-Articles.com is one of the few article directories that have real value for the author, not just for the reader.” One of the benefits Straw sites is the ability of expert collectors to promote their other published work. “Allowing our Authors to promote their collectibles-related books on our site for free is just the latest author benefit we’ve added.”

Another benefit to the writers: human-screened articles. Other article clearinghouses will post almost anything from just about anyone, simply sorting it by title or keyword frequency. Every article on Collectibles-Articles.com is read by a site representative, ensuring the quality of the information and the accuracy of the category assignment.

Straw realizes, though, that the driving motivator behind any author’s interest in posting to an article directory is potential web traffic. “We’ve got that covered,” he says. “We became a PR3 article directory in four months, which means that Google considers links from our site more important than most link-backs, which are PR0 or PR1. We’re also the site ranked #1 by Google Search in our category.” Other valuable benefits of writing for Collectibles-Articles.com include allowing authors to post pictures with their work, “Expert Author” badges for qualified writers, and the site’s ongoing promotion and exposure through national media outlets such as National Public Radio.

Collectibles-Articles.com is part of The Collectibles Companies. This family of online sites acts as a resource for collectors by collecting, screening, publishing and distributing free collectibles information in hundreds of fields, ranging from Advertising Ephemera to Zippo Lighters. Each of the sites is the number one ranked information source in its field. The Collectibles Companies includes: www.Collectibles-Articles.com, www.Collectibles-Directories.com and www.Collectibles-Museums.com.
