It becomes more of a fact that the tutorials are useful and he becomes more of an expert than he was before. Ever buy a music album for one song, hoping the rest was good? I did back in the day. That one song was their freebie it was their best! If the rest of the songs suck then you feel a little cheated but I never took one album back because the price point was too low to bother.

How do you become authority when you don't already have the authoritative knowledge required to build out an entire site's worth of content?
