When you submit your article to free article databases, your article could end up on any website. It could land as few as 5 websites to as many as 200+. Sounds great for exposure but there is a down side. Websites that may have nothing to do with your article's subject may post your article. Why? The more new content added to a website, the more a search engine will crawl it. That means more exposure for the website and possibly for you. For some, it doesn't matter because the more places online the better. Just be careful because you may end up on a website you don't find appropriate for your subject or for yourself to be on.
