There are several issues. The author, the reader and the internet. Whatever you think of your article writing, the reality is that people are using ‘article’ writing as a marketing tool and to spin money. Perhaps all your readers are writing valuable articles but like websites there are many people who are using the internet as a way to make money in whatever way they can.

That’s why Google slapped Adwords and will eventually slap blogs, press releases, articles and links.

This is a free for-all.

For articles that have my name on them, I would much rather write for quality. That is after all my name. But even the articles that don’t have my name (I ghost write) I want it to be the best that I can. It is after all my reputation.

Forget about quantity and always go for quality.

Nicole,

Well put! If you are ethical in your business practices as I am, it only makes sense to submit quality articles and then those quality articles will get you the “Quality” traffic you deserve. Doing it any other way may work in the short period but will eventually backfire!Karma baby!

I am just beginning to write articles to promote my business, however I would never dream of doing quantity just to get traffic!
