Techrights S/N Ratio

Signal-to-noise

Hours ago I checked traffic in Techrights, where I posted not many articles yesterday. Volume of articles has little to do – at least in terms of correlation – with traffic.

Indeed, Techrights traffic was up sharply, whereas Tux Machines with many new pages had less.

I’ve long believed in quality of posts, not volume. Having said that, just because someone has a high volume of output does not imply one does not prioritise or value quality.

Techrights is generally a very busy site.

I always insist and have long believed articles should only be as long as is necessary. Artificially making something long(er) misses the point. People have limited time.
