Rail Against the Conventional Wisdom
This was listed as a way to spark interest in your website or blog by someone at WickedFire (a popular affiliate marketing forum). For the most part I agree with this idea, especially if you feel very passionately about a particular topic. However, I can’t stand the posts that deliberately take an opposite stance without doing the research needed to make their argument.
It’s one of those things - if you pull it off, you look great. If you don’t, you end up looking pretty bad. And a bit lazy.
I’m not quite sure what got me started on this because, believe it or not, I don’t have a particular post in mind right now. Every so often though, I see one and think. Ouch.
