Start with onsite content
Start with onsite content,
it IS the content that will
build long-term authority
Hey Girl,
Landing pages and
product descriptions
might not be sexy,
but they’re the first
chance a brand has to
make an impression on
its consumers.
While this has information, it doesn’t answer
any of the “W” questions
1.What is it?
2.Who wants it?
3.Whydo they need it?
4. Where do I go next?

Eric Enge: Of course, it is important to look at this in the other direction
in guest posting. You should only submit articles where the quality is
high enough, and the site it is going on is authoritative enough that
you would be proud to share it on your own social media accounts…
Of course, the quality of the content matters, and where it is published
counts for a lot here too.
Matt Cutts:Yes, absolutely.
