eHow is nothing but a glorified MFA site.
They even admitted earlier that they have a propriety algorithm that looks for search trends and CPC to suggest ideas on these “Shallow content”

They can argue about a lot of things, but not on the quality of the content. And as a major Content Media, they should try to get good sticky visitors instead of defending what another company talks about their content ( Aka Google). The more they defend, the more they are reiterating that they are a MFA or rather MFG site.. (Made for Google)

I blog about gardening and some of the Demand Media “writers” just take posts from blogs like mine, rehash what we said and rarely give us credit for being the “source” of the information that they’ve dumbed down beyond belief. I hope Google does something about them because they’re polluting the search results by regurgitating information that’s already been written about by people who are actually knowledgeable on these various subject.

Demand Media and its investors should be very concerned about the noises Google has been making in response to criticism that low-quality content farm output is clogging up high-level SERPs. What’s the Plan B, Richard?
