There have been plenty of debates between quantity and quality and which is better. Anything that you put together and put out can be either in high quantity or less quantity but better quality. This includes videos, articles, or even blog posts. Among others.
It’s easy to put in a lot of something at a quick rate. Say you could whip up about 20 articles and submit them all in one day. It would probably bring a lot of traffic to your site. But how much can you put into each article at that rate?
I think putting out a lot like that would diminish the quality to a degree. Whereas if you put some time and effort into each one, sure you won’t get as many out. But I think it would be put together better and make for a more quality project.
So in short here is my point of veiw: You could easily pump out a lot at one time and bring in some traffic, but I think it would be short term. But if you take your time on each project and put out less. You’ll have something that will have longevity and build credibility.
And I think that will be better off in the long run. But “to each his own” as they say. If making things fast and quick with the goal of short term traffic works for you, then by all means go for it. But with the long term goals in mind, they will build credibility and trust. And longevity for your product. And yourself.
What are your opinions?

When I read the title to this I thought for sure you were talking about prospects.
But after reading this I would have to say you want both! If you have great content but you never get it out out there you loose. If you have crappy content but its out there all the time thats bad cause nobody will respect you or be attracted to you. So you need both great content and to get it out there consistently. @EthanLanagan

I agree, this is probably of the most popular dilemmas and solution is not black or white. However I would prefer quality on long runs has more to give than quantity.

Thank you Derek.
And yes John, I’m with you as far as quality goes. Makes things easier in the long run I think.
