Web sites are created for people who love to browse,read and search for a certain topic or subject.

Content and design of the site play a vital role in increasing web traffic in most sites. However, site with a lot of articles, people do not spend their time reading the whole article. Most of them scan and go away.

Statistic numbers:

  • Only a few people (5%) read the articles word by word.
  • Another 79% percent of those who search for articles scan it. They like to find interesting topics, paragraphs and sentences to use as resource. They look for keywords, which can be used to generate other articles for their own purpose.

The real essences of the articles are not appreciated as they are and the worst is that they use it for some purposes. However, this has been the trend especially in generating web traffic.

Some tests have shown that readers have mostly viewed most of the articles that have been well written and well researched.

Articles that have a lot of content are used for scanning purposes only.
