Which is the better content?

I think it was monday evening when Marc, Markku and I had a short dinner and drinking spree somewhere in the Mandaluyong area (was it the PVL Food Center beside the Good Shepherd Catholic School?).

As usual topics abound — from your daily AdSense dose, corporate BS, future blogging projects/plans, to world domination. We touch something on “online content”, not much on who owns it but for what it’s worth. Yes, again, it has got something to do with PBB and whole bruhaha of SEO campaigns and experiments.

“Take for example a blog with lots of original pictures and a one-liner description. Compare it now with another blog with a really good commentary but no eye-candy.” Which has the better content?

Most would say that the one with the commentary is the better blog. Some might argue that the one with pictures is the winner. Besides, a picture is worth a thousand words, right? I’d say let the visitors decide. If a surfer searches for “Cass Ponti” or “Chix Alcala” on the web and finds these two blogs, which one will they like best?

Fact is, most people searching for these PBB housemates are not in the reading mood. If you happened to blog about PBB, check your keyword referrers — do you see anything resembling “commentaries+on+Chx+Alcala” or “Cass+Ponti+strategy+in+diguise”? I guess not. I bet you’re getting “chx+nude+pics” or “pics+of+sam+milby” most of the time.

Guess what, people just looked at your entry title and start hitting the comment button.

P.S.
Btw, props to Manolo’s Pinoy Big Blogger Experiment. He’s now #9 in the SERPs.

Political blogs strikes back! *tada-da-dan!*

      For two months in a row, my top search keyword referrers are Cass+Ponti and Cassandra+Ponti. :)

      The J Spot still comes out number one or two in Google for Cassandra+Ponti. Wow!

      Then there are the Sam Milby pics, Chx pics, Chx Alcala, several keywords with pics,” “pictures,” and “nude” and all that.

      And that’s on my tech blog!

      What a punch line, eh? ;)

      I noticed my site was linked from here by someone else. Sorry, if you don’t mind, would you remove his comments or the link from his name to my site? He is not the owner of rayver.com, and I do not want to be affiliated with porn.
