    Hi Hubbers,

    I'd like some help with passing the Quality Assessment Process. Will you please give feedback on my article? What can I do to improve? Thanks!
    Here is my article: Unbreaking the Bank: Is Debt Consolidation Right for You? (must be signed in to view)

      I think it is necessary to always examine an article, post writing, from the viewpoint of a potential/likely reader. In this case, it would be people searching online about Debt Consolidation.

      You began with an explanation of the term. This is good. However, there are thousands of sites with far more authority and content that give the same explanation. Thus, it is unlikely you would even rank in the Search Engines.

      Moving on, you have another section on the benefits followed by the "route" to consolidation. However, the information is very superfluous. In fact, and pardon me for saying this, what you mentioned is probably already known to someone searching for Debt Consolidation info.

      To put it in another way, if I need to know about Debt Consolidation, I will only stay on an article that gives far more details. I would expect examples, numbers, calculations, etc. (Don't just tell me it would; tell me HOW it would) When I see the word "route," I expect actual processes listed out. Perhaps even names and brands that I trust. (I.E. banks, financial companies)

      The summary, if you want to write about such a competitive topic, you have to break the competition by being extraordinary. A comprehensive one-article wrap up on the topic. If you do not feel the need or desire to, you're wasting your time.

    I think the problem you are having here is that you are writing in very saturated topics. Your articles will be competing with the best the web has to offer. You are going to have to make yours be a resource that people will turn to. So much more information required. In fact you could combine the two articles (and presumably the next one too?).

    The other thing to think about is that very short articles like this are more likely to trip the copied content filter because of the sheer number of similar pieces out there.

    And don't use the same image smile
