Close link building through Article Directories

Google’s algorithm day by day becomes toughest for internet marketers, every time its algorithm effects on our site rankings as well as keywords positions in the Google index. Google has made some changes to their algorithm that would result in this kind of tactic being much less successful now compared to a few years ago, after few years Google comes with other exciting news related to search engine or in analytics and webmaster tools.
Today, I am talking about the latest news in Google webmaster tools, as we know article submission is the best for link building and it is very effective for new websites who just launch their sites.
But today Matt Cutts news update we do not try to make links doing article directories. As another way, webmasters not to use article directory web sites with the goal of building links. He responded in short said as per his personal recommendation is” do not upload articles to article directories.
The real question was posed:
Links from relevant content in article directories — seen as good or bad? eg. I link my beauty website from a cosmetic surgery article on say, Ezine? Would you do that?
Also, Matt Cutt refreshes everyone’s mind as what an Article Directory is? An article directory is a site where you go to write 300 to 500 words of content with a bio at the bottom that we add three links with keyword rich anchor text. And after once the article is uploaded users can download it and use it on their own site if they wish. The final conclusion is that if someone searches useful article to publish on their site, you might get a few inbound links out of it.

In Addition, Matt says that the content which are included in these article directories tends to be of low quality, and he also adds that, they are usually full of spam content that gets sprayed all over the web.
At least, Matt Cutts says that “I would not necessarily count on that being effective”
