- antjanus 14y agohmmm, I guess you caught me there. I wish I had been more specific. I find many list-based posts, short, and linkbait-like without any real sort of information, often covering broad topics with general statements. Or, on the other hand, provide 10 links to 10 places with 10 images and no explanation whatsoever why those ten links were chosen. I don't see the trend as prevalent today as it was last year where every post was a "Top 10 SEO tricks" and each "trick" was just a synonym for the same thing, eg "1. Write better - because writing is good. 2. Better content - because content is good. 3. Quality material - because quality is good". I definitely do have a certain structure to my posts. My headings allow easy scanning but I also offer detail on each topic. For example, when I discuss "Unreliable Hosting", I try to explain WHAT I did wrong and WHY. I feel like it's hard to get away from such a structure.
