Is the Aniblogosphere being flooded with mediocre quality blogs?

May 11, 2009 by Chikorita157 3 Comments

I have noticed a drop of quality posts ever since K-ON! started (no offense to people who like it). I have been seeing posts with only a picture with a few lines of text which spills quantity over quality.

I pretty much agree with this person because people want to read interesting articles about Anime and at the same time have readable articles with no grammatical mistakes.

To prevent pollution of the Aniblogosphere, I suggest the following:

  1. Don’t just post a picture and a few lines of text… It’s not interesting to the readers. If you have something minor to say, open up a Twitter account and have people follow you so you can share your interesting findings if you can’t write much about it.
  2. Proofread your posts before publishing! I suggest using the grammar/spell check and reading it to yourself so you can find the errors in your post.
  3. Be creative… Post your own thoughts about something thats bothering you about Anime or anything related to that. Don’t just post countless posts about something that people might know already, unless you really wanted to. That way, you can catch the readers attention and also have the potential for people to come back and read your Anime blog. Also, try to add interesting facts about the episode you might know or write in a different voice.
  4. Be creative with your blog layout… The problem with some blogs is that they use the same dull, generic theme that have been used by many blogs. If you know PHP or HTML and/or good at Photoshop, make your own theme so it will make you stand out from other blogs.

If you see this text, this site has stolen my content. If you are affected by content thieves, look this domain up on a Whois Service, look up the IP and send a DMCA takedown with the host provider. STOP STEALING CONTENT AND MAKE YOUR OWN. Also,  MATRIXAT, go fuck yourself you fucking thief!

    “seeing posts with only a picture with a few lines of text which spills quantity over quality. ”

    Unfortunately, thats a trend that attracts TONS of readers to the blogs…Only HOT pictures with oppai, gravure, panchira, etc..seems to attract them…and they even comment about that single picture.

    I do have a blog and from time to time, I usually put only a picture and a few text…and a poll…The reason…probably theres nothing interesting to say that day… and lets face it…those type of posts has lots of hits. I dont defend that trend but it is true.

    Another thing is the grammar…Ok, We cant blame many of the bloggers on that because most of them are not from the U.S. and dont speak english fluently (Including me) and proofreading is not easy for anyone and it takes time.

    But I agree with you…It is good to use more quality on quantity…and believe me, Many are trying their best.

    @Toonleap
    I know that it’s difficult for people who don’t know english natively, but for people who do, it’s no excuse not to have good grammar. I’m just asking that the post is atleast understandable at the minimum.

    I know that these pictures attract readers, but are the readers willing to read your blog again if there is no interesting content? Not much… though.
