Who Cares About Content?

The importance of content for Internet businesses is now being widely recognised. According to Forrester Research, the top reason why internet users return to their favourite sites is high quality content (75% of respondents). This underlines the fact that high quality content is critical for success on the internet.

You need Differentiated Content

Generic content (news feeds, stock tickers) though necessary, is easily available and is found on all sites. It is unique content that provides for differentiation. Only by providing readers with news or views that are unavailable elsewhere, a site can hope to attract and retain viewers.

But this can be costly

Obviously, unique or exclusive content is expensive. Few sites can afford to have large teams to cover the wide variety of subjects that users demand. And the increasing need for global coverage makes this even more difficult. One common solution is to use freelancers. However, management overheads can be high, and lack of reliability and inconsistency in styles create problems.
