    age old question.. traffic or content.. to you.. what is king?

    im going with traffic.. said it in another thread.. this isnt the feild of dreams, if you build it.. they will not come..

    all the exclusive content in the world dont do you a bit of good with out someone to sell it to.

    so.. what do you think and why?

    I'd say content, if your stuff is really good and sets you apart from the rest of the market the word will spread somehow. That's my opinion. Of course a combination of the two is ideal.

      ofcourse the combo is the winner...

      but what do you think wears the crown?

        For me personally it would be content... but that doesn't necessarily mean the most $$$ in the end. Moneywise you'd have to go with traffic I think.

          i'd say you can't have one without the other but seo guys seem to do alright if they use good content or not.

            I'd have to say traffic.

            A guy can have the nicest, shiniest car in the world for sale at a great price. But if he's got it sitting in the middle of a forest, how many people are gonna buy it?

            On the other hand, a used car lot, with mediocre cars can sell a couple a day if they have enough customers coming on the lot.

            Overall, I think traffic is king. You can sell anything if you put it in front of people's noses enough.

                Look at how PATHETIC 90% of the content out here. There are free sites better than most paysites. Yet they have made millions doing this.

                Traffic is king.

                  People will send you their traffic if you have great content.

                    well that's a tuff one, lets see:

                    page a) has shitload of the best movies and pics, one sponsor link, and gets 0 hits daily
                    AND
                    page b) has ZERO content, one sponsor link, and gets shitload of traffic

                    I'm telling you - it is a tuff one

                        Without content, there's no traffic. Without traffic you can't sell content.
