American Idol 2010 Final 3 Answers The Biggest Blogging Question

Yes, I write about American Idol. You may think I am crazy since this blog is about blogging, IT, or Internet. American Idol 2010 is surely out of all of those categories. However I am not crazy and yes, I talk about American Idol 2010 this time in this blogging tips blog. I think it is an interesting topic since American Idol is the current biggest pop culture show in the world. Do not afraid, as title, it is still related to blogging so let’s continue.

Honestly, I only see the show after there are only three participants left – It is The Final 3 of American Idol 2010 shows exactly. The participants in that show are Casey, Lee, and Crystal. Each of participants sing two songs – one from their own choice and second from judge choice. All of them are surely the great singer which allow me to enjoy great performance in high level. However, as competition – there is only one king – a big sad for me because all of them really the great singer. Let’s hope may the best participant win.

And we as bloggers, let’s continue our blogging with great learning from Final 3 American Idol 2010 TV Show. I learn something great things from that show and I will share it trough this blog post. In fact, this learning is related with the biggest never ending debate in current blogosphere:

Who is the king exactly? Is The Content or The Marketing?

What a big question and debate among us, isn’t it? And here the answer:

#1. Marketing Has The Big Impact For Sure

I believe – as I already mention before — the three participants are the real awesome singer in their own way but I never know about them until I watch them sing in American Idol. I also believe that many people like me – do not know how awesome they are before watch them in American Idol TV Show. It is surely that the American Idol TV show which make them be known.

Let say that their awesomeness is the content, and American Idol TV Show is the marketing tool. Now, you should already aware how this American Idol things related to content and marketing in blogging. It is sure that American Idol TV Shows which make many people around the world know how awesome they are. Without the show, they are still the awesome singer but they are will remain as non popular singer. Since the show is the marketing tools, It should already obvious that the great marketing tools which make their great content (their singing/performance) be known around the world.

What is a great result from marketing tools, isn’t it?

#2. The Content Itself as Final Determinant

Let’s see my opinion about the performance result of these three final 3 American Idol participant first. Here how I think about their performance:

• Casey performance for the first song is just okay, and in the second song is good.
• Crystal performance for the first song is just okay, and in the second song is great.
• Lee performance for the first song is great, and in the second song is awesome.

And Guess what? Yup, It is Lee and Crystal which continue their journey to real Final of American Idol and surely Lee is in the first place during the final 3 show. From this result, It is obvious that the determinant factor is the quality of their performance or can I say the content which they offer. This result surely make that Lee and Crystal will continue to enjoy the benefits of American Idol Show and in the other side, Casey stop using it. Yes, Casey is still famous because of the previous show but surely, the other two will become more famous because they still in the show.

And if we put the performance (singing) as the content and the show as marketing, we should learn something from this. This fact should tell us that the great content is really matters. It is surely the great content which bring us to the next higher level and long time success – It is the great content  allows bloggers to enjoy the long term benefit of great marketing. It is very obvious, isn’t it?

Conclusions

Marketing is surely the great tool to make our blog in high level. Marketing which allows our blog become popular in whole internet users. However, the content is the determinant factor whether our blog have long term popularity. This is tell me that we should work hard to market our blog but must work harder for our content because it will become our final determinant in the term of success. It is obvious that the great content which is the determinant factor to enjoy long term benefit from marketing. It is also obvious that both of great content and marketing which push blog in to highest level – both of them is the king.

However, If I must only choose one as the king, I will choose the content for sure. It is because:

Great Marketing is a must for success but without great content, the success will not remain.

That’s all update this time, wait for next update!
