Top Three Places That Give Your Tutorials The Biggest Bang

I have been publishing Photoshop tutorials for several months now – usually once every couple of weeks. There are all sorts of places in which I can submit my tutorials so that they get a lot of attention and bring lots of traffic to my site. If you are a tutorial writer, listen up, because here are the best three places to submit your photoshop tutorials to maximize your traffic, attention, and comments. I’ve created this list after several months of submitting tutorials to hundreds of websites – these three have been the best to me and will work great for you:

1. Good-Tutorials

Before I started blogging and I was learning the ins and outs of Photoshop, I read Good-Tutorials. Not only did they have a massive collection of tutorials all related to Photoshop, but it seemed that most of the tutorials were all of generally high quality. That was when I was first starting out with Photoshop. After all this time, Good-Tutorials has still remained one of my favorite sites to keep up on the latest and greatest in Photoshop.

When I started writing tutorials, this site was one of the first that came to mind when I was thinking about places to get my photoshop tutorials featured. When I submitted my iTunes Widget Tutorial, I didn’t quite know what to expect. It wasn’t until after I had gotten approved that my traffic numbers started to jump up. Good-Tutorials sent me thousands of visitors on the first day. Over the next few weeks, they sent me thousands more. Talk about publicity!

Good-Tutorials is the first site I submit all of my tutorials now. They approve them within 24 hours and the rewards are huge. This site should be your number one submission destination after you’ve written your latest tutorial.

2. Tutorialized

While I am not a regular reader, Tutorialized has become one of my favorite places to submit tutorials. I have found that over the last months, Tutorialized is extremely consistent in sending traffic. It isn’t like getting 1,000 visitors the first day, and then having it slowly trickle down into one or two visits per day. Instead, it is like getting 400-600 visitors the first day, and then staying consistent it up for several weeks.

Some of the tutorials that I submitted to Tutorialized almost a month ago are still bringing in 100-300 visitors per day. So if you want some consistent tutorial traffic, this is a great place to submit your work.

3. Pixel2Life

Pixel2Life is a lot like Tutorialized in the sense that they send you consistent traffic for long periods of time. I love Pixel2Life because of the way it pairs so well with Tutorialized. Having two very consistent traffic sources that send a pretty good amount of daily traffic is like hitting the gold mine.

Use Pixel2Life with Good-Tutorials and Tutorialized and your stats will show a considerable jump and stay high for many weeks to come.

Honorary Mention : PSDTuts

It has been one of my goals to get a Photoshop tutorial listed on PSD Tuts ever since I got involved in blogging. First and foremost, by getting a tutorial on their site, your name gets shown to over 17,000 RSS subscribers. Just as well, they had over 1 million visitors last month alone – that is a lot of traffic! If you can manage to get on PSD Tuts your name and website will get lots of attention from regular readers. Not only that, but you’ll get a nice check for $125 in your paypal account.

I think that this is the hardest place to get your tutorial featured. There are dozens of submissions every week and they only choose the best of the best. That just means that if your tutorial isn’t top notch, you have a much lower chance of getting featured. So only submit your best work, and if it is truly great, you will be able to enjoy reaping in the benefits.

Conclusion:
These three places that allow you to submit your tutorials will bring you traffic for long periods of time, increase your brand name, build recognition for your website, as well as pump up your subscriber and comment count. If you can use these resources effectively, you will see your blog growing much faster than ever before – so don’t wait. Write up some of the best tutorials you can, and start watching your blog grow!
