I completely agree. Earlier this week, I’ve posted an article with the same thing in mind. Everyone is going on about the importance of ‘high-quality content’, still those crappy posts make loads more than my articles do. I’m not saying they’re that great, but at least I’m trying...

I’m playing with the idea of setting up some kind of ‘awareness’ campaign - I don’t know whether it would work or not, but at least I would have tried. I’m not sure yet on what would be the best way to start this, so I’m still in the brainstorming phase. One thing I already did was add a banner at the bottom of my posts. Maybe it’ll make no difference at all, but if You don’t try, you’ve already lost
