 Pageviews is a `goto`_ approach for deciding what pages are important.
 My website analytics tell me what pages are visited the most. I infer that
 the most-visited pages are important because this is where my users literally
-spend the most time. So I review the top 10 most-visited pages, making sure
-they're all high-quality. But then I face a problem. The next 50 pages all
-have roughly the same amount of pageviews. I don't have time to review all
-50 of these pages. How do I decide which ones are important?

 When the pageview data is ambiguous, links can help me determine which
 pages have the most `load-bearing`_ content. Suppose that Pages A, B, and
 C all link to Page D. There's probably some important content on Page D.
 Pages with more backlinks (e.g. Page D) should probably be prioritized
-above pages with less backlinks.

+Revisiting the "top 10 pages all have the same amount of pageviews and
