Many would choose the book that covers a wide range of topics in a basic way, thinking this would give them better overall knowledge of the entire subject area.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">But in reality, you would probably be making the wrong choice<\/span>. The book with a wider focus (but providing less detail) is only covering the subject in a general way, a surface-level treatment. You might read through it once, gain a little value from it, and then sit it on your bookshelf and never pick it up again.<\/p>\n<p>The more in-depth book, although not covering all possible topics, does a much better job of providing you with deep knowledge. This is a book that you might return to, again and again.

Or are you providing your site visitors with truly in-depth content?<\/p>\n<p>You see, people visit websites because they need <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>information<\/strong><\/span> &#8211; and if your website content is only providing surface-level coverage of subjects, <em>site visitors will not find it that helpful<\/em>. They will hit your site, skim it, and then leave. Sites with better (more depth) content will find that their site visitors stay longer.
