So is the study credible? Well, it's performed by Stanley Milgram (one of the founders of modern psychology) and it's performed in Yale University. I am pretty trusting to authorities. :) <abbr><em>Andre Thomas´s lastest post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/SalesCopyQuickfixBlog/~3/qs0m85JI2No/" rel="nofollow">Three More Mind-Hacks To Increase Productivity</a></abbr></em> Yup, I’ve thought of that too but unfortunately no studies that I’m aware of have been done on the macho effects.

Conscious knowledge should help a little in our blind following of an authority figure. Glad to hear you like the post, Freddie.

That experiment was a great example. I like to think that I wouldn't shock someone, but know it just depends on the day. Because, what would get a person to sign up for that anyway? Authority is definitely something I will be working towards as it makes all your other efforts better.

Quality articles are the way to go :) and surely it does create authority or some influence (and like you said, they don't take much time to write). Unfortunately for me I am not <i>a master</i> at my field, I can't think of quality article on the fly. It is a do as you go thing. When I can write an article with results, then I am confident to publish a article that I believe that has quality in it! (Results aren't common.) Though, as a person like me, I have so many things I can blog about but most of them don't seem to be of any "quality" (they don't have results). Thus, I made the project of Anraiki (quantity) and dotSpiral (quality) Also, I am not trying to object, I am just presenting another perspective to look at this :) And as I said, and as this article also says, (reiterating:) Quality articles create authority :) Or did I misunderstood? I think the trick is... is to get in the zone where we can just dish about Quality articles on the fly. I would like to that ability! <b>P.S.</b> My project for dotSpiral and Anraiki, I am hoping that dotSpiral's quality article will create loyal readers... I am just testing that's all. Results won't be in for a LONG time. I will probably do a non-quality monthly article on it. Thanks for the idea! It will almost be like John Chow's "I tell people how much I make each month" post, but instead: "I tell people how much visitors I get on Quality Site against a Quantity Site." (Dude... I hope I didn't mixed some of my words on Quality and Quantity. They are almost spelt they same!) I agree.
