RE: The horrendous failure of curating Quality Content

in #ocdlast year

People get bothered about being lectured.

you see cheap content everywhere. Here too. It's just harder to monetize. Everywhere.

I beg to differ. It only depends on how you and I define cheap content.
Neither is it a given that cheap content from the retort is less monetisable (this has not only been the case since the internet, take Dieter Bohlen as a long-running success story of mediocre music, for example), just as posting pretty women with a bit of text is very successful, just like recipes, travel reports, etc., which are not very elaborate content. - All of this is not very lavish content. This is mediocre posting, widespread. Plenty of examples on Hive confirm this. With today's technology, mobile devices with cameras, a quick hand on the keyboard, it's done in a jiffy. Nor is the reverse conclusion correct, that a high level of effort necessarily facilitates monetisation.

Whether you are successful, depends not on your content alone, but on how well you can market yourself and with whom you maintain useful contacts. The most successful people are those who know how to be on many platforms at the same time and present themselves effectively, maintain relations with those who push them, etc. I'm certainly not telling you anything new here.

I am so far done with this comment exchange.
