We never made spam, we always used humans, but we made pages that were "light" in my opinion. They also lacked an EXPERT.
We solved this by hiring 55 video editors in the last six months and we now add an expert to every page.
So, if you definition of a content farm was "light" content written by non-experts then we we're a content farm.
Guilty as charged, but I confessed my sins and I'm now on the side of the righteous! Aaron Wall is now my biggest fan... he tells his clients to model their sits around my sites.
- ohashi 16y agoJason, I respect you, you've accomplished a lot and I can only hope to achieve as much success. That being said, come on. You confessed and it's out of some altruistic epiphany? Mahalo isn't competing for mindshare, it's competing for SEO share and you got beat. If you are switching to a high quality content producer, let the quality of your content speak for itself. Compete for consumer's mindshare as a destination for quality content. You've picked some battles I still respect like fighting against angels charging to be pitched. However, you don't have the same moral high ground on this one. You have no legitimacy as a crusader against content farms. Period. Stop it. Create some awesome content and share it with us. Sites like this THRIVE on the high quality content. Or re-work your business model and SEO and compete again for that long tail xylophone playing monkies. Either way, stop treating us like idiots and be honest with us.
