Hey Jisha
Thanks for the great tips! I’m new to online marketing, and this is really helpful! Since getting started, I’ve been bombarded by “spin writers” and such to create a TON of content quickly, but you seem to say that these search engines have become sophisticated enough to determine when your content is crap. Am I understanding that right?
Yes, you are understanding that right. Google especially wants to see high quality content so I’d be vary wary about using “spin writers.” You’re better off publishing less frequently, and ensuring the content addresses your reader’s needs.
