If you are an online article marketer, there is something I'd like to remind you; I call this my Rule #1.
Stop trying to go after pure traffic and concentrate on your intended customers, client, or consumer.
You see, a serious online article writer ought to go after their TARGET market, and not necessarily worry what a bunch of kids playing on the Internet just to get high numbers of page views, unique visitors, or "hits" as they call them.
Also, if you are going after a higher-end crowd or in my case a more intellectual type, it is rather irrelevant what a teenie-bopper perceives an article to mean, it is also ridiculous to go out of your way to explain it to them.
If you are writing for a sophisticated crowd, one which is well read, experienced, then you really may not care one bit what people perceive; that's their problem if they aren't smart enough to understand.
Now then, if a reader feels insulted, well maybe that's a "wake up call" for them to realize they aren't that experienced in my industry, in politics, in geo-political matters, in technology, etc.
, thus, they can choose to read someone else's articles.
My target market is not those who watch the new Reality TV Show; "Who Gets to Be Paris Hilton's Best Friend Forever or BFF," because my target market merely says BFD to that nonsense.
You see, in my "point of view" since we are talking about "perception" and using politically correct terms, the reality is that I really Don't Care what those who "don't get it" think about my articles, I am not writing for the lowest common denominator or average person.
See that point, I have a specific audience, one I care to associate with, the others, it just doesn't matter.
In fact, I'd rather they don't come to our website and waste our time.
Now then, let's say in your case you are selling a book; "How to Get The Lover You Want" and you have a website with videos for those who come to your site, well then great and there are all sorts of Internet Users who will love silly little articles, so yes, you have to be careful not to write articles of any real substance, but you should also realize if you make an article that makes everyone all happy and it is too politically correct, you really turn off the intellectual clientele because that is their perception.
