Blog modus operandi...quantity or quality?

[Boogie]

I once said a very long time ago that this debate could be a simple equation of talent. I think in a way it still is.

If you were making a resturant you could either invest everything into making one nice big 5 star resturant, or you could buy a shitload of half assed hotdog carts.

either way will make money, probably. What do you want to do tho? sell steaks or hotdogs?

and the talent comes down to whether or not your small set of quality sites can hold and acquire the attention of your dozen of other smaller sites.



now with that said, it also applies to blogs too

Boogie, have you found it advantageous to offer less in the way of pics, and more text links? I think you have about 1 billion of them.|shocking| Your blog is VERY large.

And yes, the american flag never looked so good. Her smile was very endearing, quite unlike many models I see, they lack the apperance of intimacy with the veiwer.

I may be butting in here but my thoughts on the matter is "give'em shit to click". I post a picture or four to set the tone of the post, link it to a hosted gallery from the sponsor, write some shit that fits with my personality, sprinkle in a few text links here and there. Although, I don't think I follow any type of "formula" and hopefully my posts are as bi-polar as my personality but I try to always follow the credo "give'em shit to click"

I think his idea is great, give em shit to click, or do, or interact with.

So mixing some mainstream in would work great for a blog as long as it offered an interactive aspect? My dream has been a blog called societyoflibertines.com, I already have the domain, I want to integrate humor, insightful commentary on finely clefted assess and vaginas, exquisite things like how extraordinary a redlining carrera gt sounds, and the sheer enjoyment of everything possible that defines the Libertines/hedonistic lifestyle.

do you guys think it's nuts? or a great idea if implemented properly?

The Marquis de Sade would be proud. It's an excellent idea as there are so many different audiences to appeal to. The educated or slightly more refined surveyor of porn goodness is oft forgotten as we constantly market to those searching for 'cumslut fuck pics'. As I like to say, "find a hole and fill it."

UselessWarrior, thanks for the encouragement. I would like to think that DeSade would approve of my proclivities.

You are, I assume, a fellow libertine?

My opinion of your current mental state really isn't important. In my rarely humble opinion, a blog is the ideal medium to promote your idea from.

I find that linking to anything and everything helps. I offer a mix of pics and text. I think a mix is good, because people who only want pics will scan for them, the people who want to read will do so.

My blog has about 500 entries now, is taking in a fair amount of search engine traffic a day and has some rediculous amount of inbound links. its no fleshbot, of course, but it aint bad

something I did there is right
