I've read a few books on SEO recently and what most books teach you is that SERP relies heavily on content and link building. This is all understandable and doable. It is so that in order to rank well one needs relevant and well written content. Preferably more of it than less. Wich brings me to blogging. There are lots of ppl who just put prewritten content / pages on their servers and don't actually 'build' content. With blogging the content is build by losts of users. I understand that this is a way to 'build' content. But what about users wich write 'un-relevant' content ? This would drop the site / blog in rank no ? I guess my question is as follows : What are the advantages of using blogs in regard of SERP ? If there are any (above of other kinds of content-building that is ... ) wouldn't a blog need CONTSTANT 'moderation' in order to keep all by users written content relevant enough ? Sorry for the long post, hope that anyone can share their experiences though.... Gdev
You will have relevant content on the blog, as it's on the topic, but non-relevant content will not harm your rankings
Yeah there is no harm in having non-relavents content. The SE's won't ban you just that. However it could change what they think you site is about and therefor you won't get the boost you want. That being said, how many people do you plan to have posting for you. With 4 or 5 poeple that have a clear understanding of what the blog is about you should not have an issue. Seems to me there would be a limited amount of moderation on that. Plus if you chose one of them to be the "mod" they could take care of it for you.
