Consider using the articles as guest blogging posts. <article directories> are so full of outbound links that their links are worthless. You post to <article directories> in the vain hope of getting your article picked up by webmasters.

Actually, I've found links from them to be pretty good. Not to mention that a well titled article has a pretty good shot at ranking quite well and generating some good traffic from the link(s) in the resource box.

Most of the article directories are junk, but some of the top tier ones are definitely worth it from my experience.
