Article Marketing: Quality Vs Quantity

QUESTION: (Anonymous) How do you differentiate a quality article from a quantity article?

This is an interesting question because how do you define a “good quality” article and why would you strive to create a bad one?

When I think of “Quality Article”, I am referring to an article that its purpose is to entice readers, create followers, and provide the reader unbelievable content.  I usually personally write these articles or I may pay a well-established (usually pricey) writer to do it for me.  These types of articles I usually put on my own websites as well as places where my name and my authority may be recognized (like eZineArticles, Twitter, Facebook, etc.).

Now the “Quantity Article” is usually done for the sole purpose of creating backlinks.   These DO need to be readible and usually the quality is not too bad.  Still, I usually would pay a lower priced author to write these types of articles and I may even go the extra step of “spinning” the article.  The can produce a lot of unique articles (and hopefully good backlinks) without the cost.

In fact, I usually have the “Quantity Articles” linking back to the “Quality Articles”, among other things.  It is just good SEO and Social Media Practice.

cheers…matt

Who is Behind Marketing Mind?

Matthew BredelMy name is Matthew Bredel and as of March, 2007, I am a full-time, work-at-home internet marketer.

Internet Marketing Rollercoaster…

So I was reading Lynn Terry’s KillJoy blog this morning and it really has prompted me to write a well-overdue post for today.  It is kind of fitting, too, because on the other end of the spectrum (to what Lynn was saying), I received one of the nicest thank you letters (from Hilda…thanks!) this morning.

YouTube High Definition from Camtasia 6

In a previous post, I made the mistake of saying that you could not render videos from Camtasia 6 into a format that YouTube will recognize as high quality.
This is because Camtasia’s MP4 format does not render in a frame rate greater than 15.
But if we look BEYOND MP4, we still see that we can [...]


Cli.gs: The Next Generation of TinyURL

TinyURL has been around for some time now.  What is it?  It is a simple (and free) redirect service that takes long URL’s and condenses them into a much smaller URLs.  For example:

Yuck!
By going to TinyURL, that can be condensed to simply:
