However, another thing about karma is that sometimes what you get is not necessarily what you wanted to get. Well, yes, that’s the idea behind the ‘providing value’ principle.

Funny how karma works. Giving stuff away freely can ultimately bring the most back to you. Funny how karma works.

Well, you still need to make sure the article brings targeted traffic, which will convert. By the way, writing content without trying to convert visitors to customers may be the best linkable content, because people will see nor hear no hype, advertisements or something similar and will readily share the information with others. But that's just one type of content you can create by looking at your stats. What if someone is searching for 'xhtml developer'? :) Ah, yes, I see your point now.

For example writing a helpful article might not directly get someone to click a buy now button or give you a call, but it could bring them back for more information an in time they may click to buy or call. That sentence though is about writing an article that can serve as link bait. Your stats can lead you to create content that people are searching for, but possibly not finding. If the content doesn't seem to be readily available elsewhere your new page will likely become the authoity page and attract links. That page itself may do nothing more than attract links, bit those extra links should also improve visibility for the site as a whole. So the one page may not be about converting traffic, but it can help generate more traffic to your other pages. Thoss other pages can do the work of converting.

So you have to create content to convert visitors to customers. It may be educational, informative or even amusing content, but it has to be quality and on your site :) The sentence below doesn't much sense, does it? Considering what you said in the last paragraph. <blockquote> The goal doesn’t have to be convert the traffic, but rather to help generate more traffic to the site. </blockquote> Well, the point of having content on your site is about having customers, however you may put it.
