CASE STUDY• Linkbuilding @ 84% rejection rate.• One article = 3 FTE hours (strategy, concept, write, edit, pitch)• Rejected article + 1 more FTE hour (why?, revise, re-pitch)• 100 articles = 400 FTE hours• 84 rejections for every 100 offered are rejected on first offer.• You do the math. That’s expensive content.

...the overriding kind of goal is ... high-quality content, the sort of content that people really enjoy, that's compelling, the sort of thing that they'll love to read that you might see in a magazine or in a book, and that people would refer back to, or send friends to, those sorts of things…!!!!!!Sept. 11, 2013, Matt Cutts via YouTube’s Google Webmasters Channel
