to be honest i have herd this a lot, but its starting to sound more each time as if its taken out of some cgeap marketing book, or some cheap self help book.

To be honest I am not convinced.

Its just sounds like a cool thing to say at some meeting, but has no real basis.

If its good, its probably now on a tube site or on forums.

Sure sites still sell, but less and less.

I never to be honest belive anyone that says there sales are increasing, unless they are getting far far far more hits.

I see more and more people saying there stats have gone from 1:100 to 1:10000 and more.

I personaly am getting a bit fed up with people smugly posting CONTENT is king and adapt or die, as its rather meaningless.

The truth is sales are falling.

Take a dating site I promote. I used to get several sales each month. Now its been 0 for a few months.
