This comes straight from Google themselves. It’s so important to your Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) to have quality, human readable (i.e., makes sense to a visitor) content.
There’s a lot to be said for curated content, but of course that requires original input too.

So it’s not just SEO. It’s business. Your business.
