News reporting on popular sites frequently reveals the power of having helpful viewers with the ability to link. Most of the contravention news on Tec crunch receives a huge amount of track backs referencing their post and each of these lesser blogs are funneling traffic towards the basis when they write about the same news story.
Andy Beard: the first blogger to break the news on the new Google Page Rank drop. His detection was soon followed by a sudden large amount of links; some of them just hours after his post were published. He then obtained 187 more links in total, with some of them coming from large blogs.
Andy had over 1500 more subscribers when he published the post and loyal viewers which respects his truth and knowledge. I subscribe to his feed and do believe there are at least a few powerful bloggers who read his site on a usual basis.
Would the news spread as fast a new blogger broke the news? It might be a hot topic, large blogs can not link to a story they do not know about. And even if they knew, would they really link to a source they are unknown with?
Trust in the reliability of the info resource is important to distributors of contents.
A new blogs could use social media channels like Digg to leapfrog over the obstacle of darkness and a weak blog brand. On the Digg front-page would make public sit up and pay attention.
But a larger blogs with a recognized blogs can easily control link acknowledgment by jumping on the news and writing up their outlook version of it. Cause such a site has a great number of readers with blogs; most of the quote links may avoid the original source and go straight to the better blogs.
This condition does occur often in news reportage but not so frequently when it comes to the manufacture of unique or original content that is not time-sensitive. Using this example to show that your viewers can become sharing channels which will power the status of any available content.
