We're seeing all sorts of newslettters, blogs and forum posts about how article marketing is dead.

They get into how you have to write good, long articles.

I don't agree or disagree...But I will say this: What neither side realizes is that writing itself is declining as an SEO tactic.

Think about this: Forrester Research, a MAJOR marketing company that's well respected by the "big guys" says:

IT IS 50 TIMES EASIER TO GET A VIDEO ON PAGE 1 OF GOOGLE THAN ANY OTHER MEDIUM.

Think about this and let it sink in...
