  • Kien Ha: I think
    content good
    Trend correct
  • Adam Kelly: Without a doubt, the most important thing to consider when creating content is your readers. 

    Write content that online users will find informative, relevant, reliable and useful. If your content provides something of real value to a user you can expect it be shared, commented on, linked to and spread across the entire online sphere.

    Too many webmasters or content copywriters focus too much on search engine rankings, keyword density and other useless concerns.

    At the end of the day, if you produce the BEST content for your online users, your words will do all the hard work for you. Market yourself or your business with content that shows your an expert in your industry.

    Good luck with your content creation!
  • Chomp Digital: Quality and taking the time to write something  ;good. Including screenshots,  ;images, helpful resources,  ;etc. to entertain the readers and keep their focus is something I think most should consider.  ;Those are my thoughts. ;
  • James Gibbons: 1. If you don't think someone will find it useful, you are probably right.

    2. Use Google auto-fill for content topic ideas

    3. Always feel free to mention/link to others for future links back and increased latent links from social media shares.
