Writers Note: Utilize Same Knowledge Upto Six Times

Internet has become one of the most important sources of gaining and providing information for many people all around the world. This has created a challenge as the quantum of information available on internet today is humongous and only comparably very short time is available to people to access that information. It is important to effectively manage the information on the net so as to maximize the opportunity for the people to find the right kind of information. This issue created an opportunity for the database managers and search engine providers. The most common strategy is to develop algorithms which provide information to user as per their need.

Today, even the specific information provided is too much. Just type any word unless and until you are very good in using your keywords or are very clear on your need, the number of links which will be displayed can be in thousands to millions. Most of the information provided in those articles are of no use or are repetitive. Significant amount of reader’s time is wasted in getting the right paper or source which can provide maximum information in minimum time.

The need for such sources raised the demand for review articles, which convert the information present in hundreds and thousands of paper into just few pages. This is strategy is best established in the research domain. As a result, some of most viewed journals sometimes happen to be review journals rather than core journals. Such a strategy has several advantages:

• Reduce the reader’s time: Since, information is in the most concentrated form, so in less time reader can get maximum information.
• Creation of secondary to quaternary level knowledge: Such papers generally generate significant level of information based on the trends and patterns which appear out of primary research work. This kind of information can critical for decision making.
• Higher knowledge accuracy: This work provide information with lot more accuracy as in this case several primary research pages have been analyzed and deviations from the general trends can be easily identified and displayed.

Can this be a strategy?

In triond, there are so many users with more than 100, articles to their portfolio. It becomes just all too difficult for anyone to go through all those articles and determine which can be of their interest. This is especially tough for new comers or people who do not use it regularly. Though, it may be said that authors write about their interest in their profile and you can go accordingly, but even in that case one has to dig deep to find out the article of real interest or simply have to click latest articles and hope to get linked to appropriate article of interest.

How will the scenario change, if users can at least write the few review articles on all previous articles they have published, let say 5 review articles for every 200 articles. You can display them in your profile when describing about yourself.

What is the advantage?

You can become more users friendly and can become the example for the new comers. Targeted visitors will your web pages getting your article more focus among like minded people. This allows a more productive way of recycling work than just adding links of old article to new article, as this method will have more logic and meaning. Your own understanding on your writing will be enhanced (probably, a very important exercise for people who are very diverse in their writing or are newcomers).   

Let’s talk numbers.

I have written 5 review articles and all of them started on a strong footing as compared to my regular articles. All the review articles were addressing different domains like health, gardening, education, entertainment and society and were published in different writing sites. All of them received 2 to 6 times more page views in first day as compared to my normal articles.

P.S.: This seems to be a very effective strategy and planning to work more on this and try to come out with more effective information. It is also possible many writers might be practicing this idea or might have written about this before.
