and I agree with this, I was replying towards the OP with my last comment. As a whole, I don't believe either "trumps" the other. You can make good money with a blog, tube, tgp, etc...there's so many variables that come into play. I believe they all have their good uses.

the problem is that he is thinking in terms of a blog and nothing else.
he does not realize how expansive CMS models have become, which now encompass tube sites, tgps and just about anything else.

this is why "blogs" are trumping tubes. tubes are just tubes, but blogs have rapidly advanced into a multitude of media delivery platforms.

ok? so where is the proof these "social hybrid" blogs are making a comeback?

your terminology is confused. because wordpress is used to make a blog, a paysite or tube, does not mean that tubes and paysites are blogs.

you are stating all things made with a cms are a blog, but that is not true.

you just said this right?

there is your answer. tumblr is one of many. webmasters build huge networks of hybrids which are making a killing and are growing.

the key here is growth and the ability to grow, and blogging platforms are allowing this.

While I agree with you about the versatility of blogs ect I dont think they are trumping tubes, and if they ever do it will take one hell of a large wp tube to do it.
Tubes are similar to facebook ect the surfers talk about them amongest themselves at work or everyday convos, they have become the social porn norm so to speak, and they will only evolve in the future, not go away. They have the edge on the surfers and that is going to take a lot to break if its ever done

think again-
"WordPress is an open source blog tool and publishing platform powered by PHP and MySQL."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordPress

wordpress is a blog tool with which you can now make tubes, tgps etc. but it's core is the blog.

it remains to be seen, but lets see in one year how many are making tubes from traditional tube programs and how many are using wp...i think the wp tube platform will leave all others in the dust.

I know from my own expereince running wp tube sites that they do attract a lot more surfers than normal blogs. And they do seem to get traffic from nowhere with little promotion and no seo. But compared to the traffic the tubes get mine is miniscule. Mine is now up to around 20k a month I think the higest month now has risen to 24k and this is without really doing much to it. I even stoped posting to it for about 4 months lol. Maybe its the niche maybe its the hand written posts or maybe its just the embeded videos I really dont know. I am finding the exact same thing with the newer wp blog i have just started ..traffic just comes to it lol. If I had done more to the older tube blog I most prob could be getting double the traffic now

Hell yeah! Wordpress makes you better at SEO instantly! But shh, don't tell the newbies! We don't need more WP blogs spamming the serps! :1orglaugh

retarded thread.
