What is content marketing?
Great question! Content marketing is the creation and distribution of information assets, either for the purpose of education or entertainment. The goal is to generate brand awareness, grow consumer traffic, develop leads, and eventually close more sales. Marketing content is generally at no cost to the reader and does not explicitly promote your brand as an ad-promotion would.
What’s involved in creating a content marketing strategy?
A content marketing strategy is a plan for building an audience. Elements of content marketing strategy include establishing objectives, audience personas, a value proposition, content marketing mission statement, a buyer journey map, and plans for creating, promoting, and analyzing how content marketing assets and programs perform.
Do I need a blog?
Email, social media, search, and other elements of your digital marketing mix will depend on delivering useful content. Though video outlets, podcasts, and media galleries present other options, a blog is by far the most used tactic for distributing marketing content on a channel over which you have complete control.
What content should my business create?
There is no one good answer to this question except to say you should create content your customers will find relevant and useful. The best formats include blog posts, relevant articles, ebooks, infographics, microsites, video, on-line courses, case studies, newsletters, visuals, and various forms of interactive content.
How often do I need to publish blog posts or create new content?
First understand this: search engines will learn to index your site as often as you publish content. However, neither your audience nor search engines value low-quality content. The answer(s) to this question is you should (1) create content as often as you can create quality content, and (2) you must consider your costs as it relates to return on investment (ROI).
How do I get people to read our content?
Great headlines are the key to getting people to read, watch, or listen to your content. Over time, however, your reputation becomes a factor too, so you need to build and honor it. we like to say, “The goal of your content is not to get people to visit your website; it’s to get people to subscribe to it.”
Do I need a professional copywriter?
If you want to do professional marketing you need a professional copywriter. The role of a copywriter is more important than ever in the content-driven digital media world. Well-written copy builds brands, connects with the reader and inspires action.
