The Cost Of Arrogance

When I moved from Road To Forbes
to my own domain,
I almost reposted
my two years of history.

I told myself that it was
because readers wanted the old posts.

A lie.
All that content is available
with a simple Google search.

No, it was arrogance, pure and simple.
It irked me to be back to being
a baby blogger,
starting all over.

The price for this arrogance
would have been high.
I’d be back in the Google Sandbox
(where I have my own chair)
penalized for duplicate content.

How is that serving my readers?

Easy answer.
It doesn’t.
