About This Particular Article Directory

What makes Joel's Articles different from other article directories? In a word - Joel. Most article directories are part of the fascinating commerce ecology of the Web. People write articles to promote their sites and ideas. Other people are looking for content for their sites, because they know that the only honest long-term strategy for attracting traffic - and search engines - to their sites is to have relevant content.

What motivates people to put up directories? Advertising. The directory itself becomes a concentration of content. That, in turn, makes its margins and open space valuable "real estate" for ads of all kinds.

But Joel believes that, while making money is good, and helping others make money is wonderful, it is wrong to sacrifice one's values to do so.

So you will not find any articles in this directory that promote immorality, the occult, violence, or hate. (If that's what you're seeking, you already know that there are plenty of other sites where you can find it.)

Joel also cares about writing. He's not nasty about it, but good spelling and grammar are important to him. And the articles have to make sense.

Those are our differentiators.
