Content is NOT King

Now you hear this line over and over again from all the newbies as well as the so called pros. "Content is King" is what they tell you when you ask what's the best way to get your site popular.

Now let's shed some light on this mysterious line. If you're a regular Google and other SEO user, you should notice that a lot of the top search results for varies information loads up websites that are vastly inferior to similar sites with much better information, or as the average webmaster would call them, "content".Now how could content be 'king' if the sites with better info are constantly buried? It's simple - the dumb SE spiders can't tell if the content on your site is good or not, it can only judge by people linking to you. Now Just because you have several good articles or tools does NOT mean anyone would link to you!

Without going further in to off-site SEO yet, I want to show you some ways to optimize on-site to overcome this stupid popular yet false saying. Content is NOT King (or even a Queen) when people say you should write things for viewers instead of SE, I say bullshit - write for both but keep SE first. It's easy for humans to understand articles, tools and other 'content' even when their's flaw in the writing.

But for SE to understand an article and rank it appropriately, it has to be damn near perfect to their 'relevance' standards. So before you push that next article/tool/blurb/rant to the first page of your site, keep in mind that SE is much dumber at understanding the value of your content comparing to your visitors. So plan your content so the retard(SE) can understand it first. Now besides holding SE's hands when writing content, there's another thing to keep in mind - quality versus quantity. Every time someone says quality is better than quantity,

I cringe. In the eyes of SE, quality don't matter - it's just how 'related' each content is to your keywords as well as the quality (yes the amount!) of related material you can pump out at a regular basis. So don't even bother writing a nice long article that's never been seen before in this world just to have it buried within days by the retard(SE). Instead focus on breaking them down to blurbs and set a timer to update frequently, that's all you need - frequency and relevance. Speaking of quantity, the single most efficient way to generate massive quantity is via user submission. The best and easiest way today is still forums, if you're going to make a site that is capable of creating a community make sure you at the very least put up a decent forums on it. It's free content for you (granted they're LOW quality) and there are occasionally some high quality stuff.

Just look at the popular webmaster site digitalpoint forums for example, 95% of the post are absolute garbage but they make up in sheer volume and the occasional good or great post keeps the people coming back.So break out of the box and stop believing in the 'content is king' advice, realize that anytime someone says that - that person most likely don't know what they're talking about.
