Trying to Think of a Title, l guess This will do!
Have not been as active as l should be here at APSense...have not written any "NEW" material until just now. I been watching all of the live stream, l may not always reply, but l watch. Read most of the articles posted....unless it is another useless article on how l am going to be very rich and successful.
The APSense Team, created this site based on the ability of being able to share articles that had benefits, to all our members. The ability to express your view point, not how rich l am going to make you....That is not happening...seen way to may programs that had the "Lick and a Promise"......
To be honest with all of you l have just laid back and just watched, and quite frankly what l read is not all that original, has no feeling from the writer, meaning and certainly not free...This has had an effect on why l have not been as active as l have been.... Seen it all, almost from day one....most of us here have no idea, what APSense has to offer us.
To busy looking for that magical dust, like the TV show "I dream of a Jennie" snap your finger and wow your wish has been commanded.....Why most of us will never make a dime on the net....we forget to plan our success, we feel it should come natural...not happening at all.
I see articles being topped that absolutely have no reason for receiving that honor, l see articles that have been written by other writers and no credit being applied to the original writer. That's not right at all..............actually illegal to do that, on the internet. So l sit back and can not come up with a title tonight....like l said this one will work.

Some may understand this article most will just not even understand why l wrote it...
oh well, why not many make it on the internet.

Hey, Philippe, It's alreay too late this side of the Atlantic...again I'm at Apsense...Apsense is ruinning my beauty sleep! I think that there is honest and dishonest effort and we should not excuse the last one. Example: I read an article with construction and spelling mistakes but clearly the guy experienced the situation he was writing about and had strong opinion on it. I think he was from China.It was authentic and I liked it. This is what I want when I read an article. To plagiarize is the

Paula, thanks for your last comment, it is very nice and thoughtful.
Joseph, I never put pressure on anyone to top an article, it has to come from their heart.
An article that shows APSense in a negative light can not get a top from me, sorry to be so blunt. I do appreciate the discussion we have, even though it does not have much to with positive thinking and seeing what we have instead of what was there before.
18 months ago, APSense was at 45,000. Being close to 4,000 is not very goo

It is not always easy to write something original about social marketing or related, especially not when the native language is not English. But than again, do you have to? You can write an article or story related to your niche. You can, like Sean sometimes does, use a parable to make your point. Or you can write something about a personal experience or an anekdote. That works too. They show the person behind the profile picture. Also when you write about something else than marketing you can r

Actually they are still around and just not as active.....but what your telling me is what we all already know.....not my point at all Phil...................but l appreciate and see where your coming from....l just understand the art of viral marketing, and why good content is vital for our "RANKINGS".....what the spiders crawl l look for ........with a good bounce ratio...........then APSense will be ranked.............under 4000..........Phil l am just a numbers guy............l can make them

Times change, Joseph, there are many more members on the Internet today than there ever was. People from countries who didn't even have Internet access not that long ago, who can't even see the awesome graphics or videos because they don't have high speed access.
Try writing in another language before making judgments on the qualities of the writing of others. I appreciate their efforts and enthusiasm. We have so many things to do and learn in the IM world, a new language is not an easy obsta

Hi Belinha,
Hey l judge no one....but l fully understand your concept and why your saying what you are saying....this is what l mean by creating a debate......we all have the ability to express our feelings and what we see and can or can except...we learn from one another, teaching and understand our true potential is learn-able....the article only states my full perspective........on how in my world APSense content has changed,,,,,,,,,we forgot we have the ability to write our own articles..

I guess I should have said that my comment was inspired by this part of Joseph's article:
"This has had an effect on why l have not been as active as l have been.... Seen it all, almost from day one....most of us here have no idea, what APSense has to offer us."
Writing new, original, fresh content is not easy nowadays. There are tons of articles that have been written on all the subjects we can think of in the IM world.
I sympathize with the members who just started online marketing a

Thank you Cheryl,
l though l was very confused when l had a hard time picking a title....the reason l wrote this was for all the crap that is being posted as an article....some articles are so short, they are not even a good comment.........Phil, nothing like the earlier days when we had fantastic and well written articles not saying it is not happening now......just very few....well written ones.....l have articles that have over 200 comments on them and some of the comments are longer then

Hello Joseph! Don't be so upset. I understand your point of view but my APsense experience is to short to have an opinion. I now that people copy and paste all the time. Some people do not realize what it means to be an author and what kind of rights an author has. Many people think that what is published on the internet is public, free to take. Some act out of ignorance others just don't care. I preach this all the time and most of times I get bad attitude even from my friends that consider me

I agree with Sean. Real gems can be found if you dig deep enough. I read a lot too. And a lot not for credits. However I do not have the time to check if it is original or not. There is a service where you can do that for free. i think it is called copyscape or something.

There is way too much garbage masquerading as content. I go to the article feed page and I'm lucky if I can find something worth even reading since pretty much every thing is copy paste ad copy or another PLR Article someone put inthere to amass points.
Philippe make not like it, but crap is crap and a lot of crap in a small space stinks. Until Members start naming crap for what it is the same garbage will continue to stink up the place. That's is not opinion, that is proven fact borne out

I'm not saying I know better or anything, just that I'm very excited about what I have seen happening in the pas few weeks at APSense, but the list of things I noticed is way too long to put it in a comment

Hello Joseph, I read your article, my perspective is far different from yours, if you don't mind, when it's lunch time, so in a little more than 1 hour, I will write an article about it.
No offense meant, just a difference of opinion.

Yea l have to agree with all of you takes time to actually write an article, but when you have a reason to do....then it has more credibility.
When you read this for the second or third time it might just make sense....

Hey Joseph I agree with Neville and Sean, The title got my attention. You are so right, there are so many articles that are not even worthy to be called articles that are getting topped. I have seen articles that are more of a "regurgitating sales pitch" that doesn't even get read by me. People have absolutely no clue on how to market. I have met more people by sharing a thought, idea or a concept that I either read or or heard someone mention than I have throwing up a sales pitch to people.

the title worked for me too Joseph just recently I have spent hours trawling the archives of apsense in search of and cataologing the links to quality articles here on apsense for my own curiosity, there are some real gems among all the trash
excellent post Thanks

Despite the unusual title, this is one APSense article that should be compulsory reading for any member.
It's disappointing and frustrating that I had to go through 6 pages of articles that, judging from their title and excerpt, were not worth making a comment. Well, a constructive and positive comment, that is. And so many of these "articles" have been topped.
It's not just here at APSense that we have to wade through this material just thrown up to fill a space or to hang a few links on.
