Thanks for this post. And while I do agree about what you said of quality content. I have seen so many instances where very good content goes virtually unnoticed.

Concerning the latter. I have seen instances where minnows and whales have written on the same topic, and even in instances where the minnow's piece is better, he/she gets very little in the way of upvotes while whales get huge sums for mediocre content.

Just an observation BTW.
