My whole point here is that marketers like yourself seem to only care about marketing stuff, which when it comes to writing is a very dangerous strategy. Did Lego know what people wanted when they came up with their brick system? No. They just had an idea, went with it, they stayed passionate about it and the world got inspired by that passion and they became a toy giant. The trouble is when people start writing based on popular searches they stop writing about what they actually care about, know about and just release copy-paste bullshit, just like the 10.000 other writers following that same "pattern" you're selling. How do you explain my success on Medium when I never ever even looked into search terms? How is it that I have infinite number of ideas regardless? Let's all let writers write. The passionate ones will make it, the others won't. Writing for the sake of just money is a terrible idea. https://medium.com/illumination/six-months-into-the-partner-program-is-it-worth-it-46e142fd5ee7
