Some folks just don’t seem to get it.

I see it everyday. Just the other day, some one wanted to know what niche was the best for blogs. Another wanted the best ways to get traffic. Both are valid questions, no doubt.

Sadly, as soon as I talked about creating high quality content first and foremost, know what the response was? Not a peep, not a word.

Why is it so few people understand that content should always come first. Sure you might get away with junk in the short term, but sooner or later it’s going to cost you. How? No love from the Search Engines, trust me on this one, I know from experience. The painful experience of watching my traffic and sales go down the drain.

My content was not terrible, nor was it junk and I sure did not use some site scrapper to “steal” content to build my empire. Yes I do consider it stealing when the sole purpose is to only use it to make money or gain traffic. You know what I’m talking about. No matter, those sites don’t last for long.

I see so many people struggle getting traffic to their web properties and providing little, real content. Look at most high traffic web sites and you’ll notice one important fact, they provide valuable or interesting content. Something folks want to read, laugh about, learn or raise their voice. If marketers spent as much time on content as they do about traffic, things could be so different.

If the shoe fits..:)
