Ian Cleary on consistency vs quality in content marketing:
“I say to people, ‘Never produce a poor quality piece of content.’ Consistency is absolutely important, but I prefer to break consistency rather than deliver something poor quality. The first article that somebody reads on your website, that determines whether they’re going to take the next step and read another article, or content or anything. If that’s a poor quality article, that’s it. You’re relationship’s gone.
When you even think from a Google perspective, how are you going to rank for a piece of content in Google? The only way you’ve got a chance is if it’s the best piece of content for that particular keyword term, or that particular topic. You really going to have to do a lot of extra work to make sure that’s a super high quality content.”
