Which is more important? When building a website that is supported by both a strong community audience and a diverse body of content, what element do you need first to get growth going and then what do you need over time to keep it going?
Do you need quality content first to attract the audiences and build community or do you need the audiences to attract the better content and content creators? Which one should lead? Which one is more important?
This will then lead to a discussion on the "hub and spoke" distribution model and the "call and response" model that we will talk about in future blogposts. Discuss.

At first, quality content is more important by far in my opinion. This will attract visitors and make them contribute to something they think it really worths. Low quality content probably will disencourage skillful creators and potential users.
ReplyDeleteyeah quality will attract other quality i agree. i can see good content following where the audience is as well. don't you also need that audience to attract the quality. its a good balance to have both as you grow i think.
ReplyDeletevery cool site by the way. i loved the cool design on the homepage and also the two deer at the bottom of the page. hahah. great stuff.
