Every marketer may be different but the question that weighs on their mind is always the same -- what is better, content quality or quantity? You were probably hoping that Rebecca Toth answered this question for you in her recent article: Content Quality vs. Quantity: Is There a Clear Winner? but it isn't that easy because both quality and quantity have their pros and cons.
There is one question weighing on almost every marketer’s mind, or at least should be: what is better, quality of content or the quantity produced? The debate is ongoing and seems to be picking up momentum, but is there a clear and definitive answer to this question? ... No. The answer is that simple."
