Everyone Is Pushing MORE CONTENT

tuning into a news outlet. 60% of those people
said they had noticed that stories were less
complete.” – Pew Research Center

The Decay of Guest Blogging for SEO

“If you’re using guest blogging as a way to gain links in 2014, you should
probably stop. Why? Because over time it’s become a more and more
spammy practice, and if you’re doing a lot of guest blogging then you’re
hanging out with really bad company.”
– Matt Cutts

What Publishers Are Saying
“The survey and findings
are great. If you do more
of these, please put me
on a list. Fascinating.”

“Now that’s a f*cking
infographic!”

“This video is
fantastic!”

The article is performing
insanely well all over the
place, tens of thousands
of pageviews per day and
tons of social shares.

#dontbeabot

“I would love to
collaborate on
future projects!”
Hi, Hey,
Hello

First

Hi Emma,

Timely,
trending

Link to story

Exclusive

Earlier this week Huffington Post Women covered
Barbie without Makeup, which has been a viral hit
on the Internet. Serendipitously, my team is
about to launch an infographic which builds upon
this topic, by studying "Is a Barbie Body Possible?”
New data

Emotional hook
Rare asset

Humanized - Relatable

Surprise - leading
viral emotion

My team came up with a photo-realistic rendering of

Barbie, which aims to demonstrate just how bizarre a lifesized Barbie would actually look. We compare Barbie to
our real life model, and uncover the impossible physical
proportions of the doll idolized as perfection by so many.
The results are jaw dropping. You can check out the

infographic here, via this private imgur link.

  1. George Loewenstein, Professor at Carnegie Mellon University explains the “information gap theory of curiosity”
  2. They’re going to be like “my mannn” or “hey girllll”
  3. And then that person is going to say something that will shock you, that will surprise you, that will leave you and your bosses and their clients amazed.
  4. How do you do it?
