How do you describe content marketing and its importance in Digital marketing?
It’s everything! When you think about, every single thing your brand does online is content marketing. Every word, every image, every video, your emails, your products, your customer support, and even customer experience is all a part of your content marketing. That’s why you need to be strategic with everything you brand does online.
What’s a good strategy for getting more people to find your content in the top place?
I’m biased towards SEO, so I would say create incredible keyword-targeted content assets and promote them like crazy until they rank on the first page of Google. After that, focus on creating valuable micro-content on the social media platforms.
How do you decide which content topics to focus on end client on and what format that content should take?
I do extensive keyword research and then try to validate my ideas for creating anything. Validation can come in the form of search volume, but it can also come from a general interest in a topic. For example, if you’re trying to find content ideas on a forum, you may find a topic that has many views and replies. That is validation because people are showing interest in that topic.
How to assist a content writer to craft a valuable piece of content which fulfill your needs? Any helpful tools or suggestions.
This is challenging because the expert-level content is hard to replicate. But with that said, my company uses standard operating procedures/workflows to craft content assets.
What metrics can help to improve your writing and performance?
Easy. Did the content drive social shares, backlinks, new subscribers, leads, or sales for your company? If the answer is “Yes”, then congratulations ? – if it’s no… then the content strategy needs to be reassessed.
Recently “Google Issues a Warning About Guest Posting to Build Links” – By SEJ. SO what is your take on it?
All I can say is use branded anchor text if you are getting a bio link. If you can get a backlink from the body of the content, then you’re golden. Think of guest posting as a way to grow your brand. This simple mindset shift can do a lot.
What is the best way to outreach giant authority website and get the content live?
You have to build a relationship and be patient.
What trends will be impacting content creation in the near future?
AI and VR will probably shake things up.
What do you consider to be the most serious challenges for the blogger or SEO specialist? What challenges have you faced at the beginning of your career and How have you overcome them?
The biggest challenge is always going to be breaking into an industry when you are A) unknown and B) don’t have enough credibility to garner respect from your peers. This takes a long time and you need to be patient. You have to focus on giving unique value on a consistent basis for a long time. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but no one said this game was easy.
