Benefits of Article Writing is

1)It helps you in gaining search engine ranking,getting your article approved in top article site like ezine really helps you in search engine ranking.

2) Helps you in getting clients, your clients will get impression that you have knowledge of subject.Chances of getting clients are higher.

Your not quite right here. Getting an article approved is not going to help you tremendously in your search engine rankings. While the site its self may have a high pr the page that your links are on will have no pr at all. All you are getting is a link from a site that has millions of pages full of people doing the same thing as you. You might as well spam some blogs if your looking for seo juice. If you want to spend the time backlinking your article then you might get some seo bennefit out of it. Wasting your time backlinking your articles instead of your own site is just shooting yourself in the foot.

The reason why articles are good for seo is because other people will syndicate them to their sites. If you dont think about syndication when doing article marketing you will be left holding your dick in the wind the next time google does a major algorithim change. As this is what happened with the last change.
