One of the world’s most respected business publications Forbes changed its online marketing policy due to a column by Paul Carr in which he compared the media of old times and the new times and said that the media of today does not believe in giving good and rare news, instead mainly focus on seo and getting the maximum ad revenue.
Hearing this Paul Maidment, chief editor of Forbes.com, tendered his resignation , while new chief product officer Lewis Dvorkin called an on-the-record meeting to announce a strong new online strategy for the company.
This shows when there is a change needed even one person can get it done. And yet another thing that i appreciate is that Forbes did not give any explanation to hide its mistake instead made the changes required soon.
Maybe thats the reason they are number one.
