Demand Media Creates Facebook "Websites" to Drive Social Media Traffic

By Demand Studios Review Editorial

Posted On 5/19/2011

The Corporate Climb Logo Demand Media By now everyone readily accepts that the Google Panda update has hurt Demand Media owned websites. It looked like they had gotten off clean the first time around, but now traffic has decreased and they have admitted, to some extent, that it had an effect.

One of the main points coming from Demand Media execs repeatedly in post-Panda interviews has been an assurance that they’re driving more traffic from social media than ever before. They have been vague on details, but it turns out they’ve been accomplishing this feat by some more sly techniques than just adding Facebook like buttons to articles and slowly gaining more followers to their websites’ Facebook pages...Click Here to Read the Full Article

eHow Removing Similar Titles, Going With Most Popular Articles

By Joe Marshall, Demand Studios Review Writer

Posted On 3/22/2011

eHow logo Demand Media sent an email to Demand Studios writers letting them know that they had found some similar titles while reviewing the quality of the content on eHow. Demand Media went on to explain that they will be removing the least popular title.

Now leaving aside for the moment the fact that they must have known there were/are similar and in some cases duplicate titles all over eHow, it seems an odd choice that they are choosing the most popular article. Considering the function allowing readers to determine whether or not an article was helpful was only very recently rolled out, one assumes this means they’re going with the article which is getting the most page views and has the best Google ranking...Click Here to Read the Full Article

An Open Letter to Traditional Journalism: “Content Mills” Are Not To Blame For What Ails You

By Bruce Doyle, Demand Studios Review Writer

Posted On 1/26/11

Dear Traditional Journalism,

An Open Letter To Traditional Journalism Concerning Content Mills Things have been tough lately, I get it. Your profits are falling. More and more you’re being forced out of print and solely onto the Internet, a medium you’re clearly not totally comfortable with yet and one you don’t dominate. I’d be a little irritable too if I was you.

But I think you’re looking in the wrong direction when you go after so called “content mills” as the big bad demon in the room. There are other, more accurate villains to blame for your predicament (and one of them is you)...Click Here to Read the Full Article

Demand Media IPO Set For This Week On The Heels Of Google Notice

By Demand Studios Review Editorial

Posted On 1/25/11

Demand Media IPO Quality Concerns

This has been one heck of a week for Demand Media. They are on the road pitching their company to investors, promoting the quality of their business model and their content. Then, the worst happens: Google publishes a blog claiming they plan to go after “content farms.”
