The point is to compare current quality with perceived importance to find a weak link to focus on. If quality were an A it would be unlikely that it could be a weak link. Improving beyond an A would require far more effort than to take a somewhat less important facet of blogging from a D to a B. -Scott Iair,

I've found the simplified measure calculation quite useless. You are giving this importance to each item. (Nbr), % 1 6,67 2 13,33 3 20,00 4 26,67 5 33,33 ---- Let's change it a bit to see it better. 1. Quality = 1 * 5 = 5 // 5 instead of 3 2. Quantity = 2 * 3 = 6 3. Collaboration = 3 * 4 = 12 4. Technology = 4 * 2 = 8 // 2 instead of 1 5. Monetization = 5 * 4 = 20 That would say that Quality is your weak link, even with an A mark!! ---- So, this wasn't a defense of the excellent quality of your articles but in the "simplified calculation" usefulness. And, just like every day, thank you for your great articles. you know how much I appreciate them. Iair Salem, Argentina. Hi. I’ve found the simplified measure calculation quite useless.

Let’s change it a bit to see it better.
1. Quality = 1 * 5 = 5 // 5 instead of 3
2. Quantity = 2 * 3 = 6
3. Collaboration = 3 * 4 = 12
4. Technology = 4 * 2 = 8 // 2 instead of 1
5. Monetization = 5 * 4 = 20

That would say that Quality is your weak link, even with an A mark!!
