The mountain of "meh"

It’s estimated that 7.5 million blog posts are written each day.

For context, that’s more than 2.7 billion per year.

‍What, you might ask, is the mountain of “meh?”

As per Doug Kessler, it’s a pile of content—the vast majority of content—that turns out just like everything else.

The problem is that most blog posts are just a bunch of businesses talking about the same things in the same way.

And that approach will never let you break through the clutter.

But don’t get discouraged: blogs work, and that’s why 70% of consumers prefer getting to know a company via articles rather than ads.

It’s just a matter of finding ways to create unique content that’s custom-tailored to your audience and makes their lives easier and better.
