Content is king, living in a marketing castle
Content is king. No, it’s the SEO and marketing. Over the years, these are the arguments of many website and online marketing geeks. And my standing is… content is still the king, with his marketing castle. Why I am telling this? It is because internet marketing is a broad thing. It consists of not only promotion, but it is also and importantly composed of content quality, website efficiency and cost of use. These elements combined, form a royal family, and which “content” is still the leader.
Why promotion is not the king? There are tons of website owners who spend a lot of dime in site promotion like online advertising and search engine optimization, but still a majority of them don’t succeed. And to take a note, those few websites that contain quality contents are the only ones who gain long-term success. Expensive advertising may bring you thousands of visitors during the promotional stage of your site. But this doesn’t mean it will be the scenario as time goes by. It will still depend on the other three factors namely ease of use, cost of use and content quality. The traffic brought by promotion may only pass once and may never come back again if visitors realized the poor quality of a website. Read more

How to comment the right way?
I appreciate people who make comments on the articles written in this site. In fact, I’m always excited to open our dashboard everyday to see who have participated in our discussions. Recent commentators were given rewards by showing their names and links in our blog’s sidebar. Monthly top ten commentators are also shown in our sidebar with their names and links to their websites. This gives them link incentives that provide their websites hundreds of possible backlinks since top commentators appear in our sidebar which is shown in all the pages of our site (this site has 230 pages indexed by Google as at the date of this post). To see the number of a website’s pages indexed by Google, just enter the keyword, site:domainname.com (ex. site:businessaccent.com) in the Google search engine. Read more

I was creating my post about the “list of top marketing blogs and bloggers” when I stumbled upon Steve Rubel’s Micropersuasion blog. Steve was saying goodbye to blogging and welcoming lifestreaming. The title of his blog post created a very intriguing question inside my mind. Why should he decide to leave his well-established and very popular blog? It’s like a comet that was about to hit the world of blogging. Is this a sign that the blogosphere will begin to fall and be dominated by the world of lifestreaming. Steve stated the following: Read more
