Sure! Content as filler always was dead. Content by definition means that it contains value for the reader. At least that is how I always read it.

So if your content doesn’t qualify you as a resource then it isn’t worthwhile content.

As always, just MHO…

[...] Yeah, once I said content is dead, resource is king, but, there is still the issue of the text designed on pages designed to rank well, not nessecarily the ones designed to get the links. Say what you will about the dead myth of density sweetspots, there is data to provide at least rough statistical guidelines to both ensure that content does not look spammy and that it is textually relevant to the query being optimized for.

Yep, I could have been clearer about that.

My philosophy is to look at links as a direct traffic source. Go after the types of links that provide immediate exposure, and then the Google thing tends to work itself out somewhat after the sandbox period.

And thanks for the link.

Hi Dan.

Nice to be here…I’m posting a comment here for the first time. I think it cannot be stressed more that the best way to get people to link back to you is to give them a compelling reason…give them something they’d really like to share with their visitors. Whether it’s graphical or textual, good content always gets you good places on other websites.
