I've long been against contributing those type of sites (MoneyBlogs is another). They want people to create content for free which they then monetize and keep all the cash. Besides that, it also becomes an issue with Google search results. Seeking Alpha will usually have much more "Google juice" than some random blog. So the bloggers are hurting their own blogs b/c Google will point people to Seeking Alpha instead of the blogger's own site where the content originated.

I saw you linked to the Seeking Alpha post…just curious, where do you land on the “debate”. I personally don’t read SA…it just never made it to my list of daily must-reads.
