Here’s What You Can Do to Improve Your Content Marketing in 2015
1 – Do your research before you start writing.
Content marketing can be key to realizing more online leads and business in the New Year. Here’s what you can do to improve your content marketing efforts in 2015.
If you have written anything for online publishing – or if you have even just searched for information online, then you know what keywords are and how they work. Simply put, keywords are how users search for content, and they are one of the various elements that search engines use to evaluate relevant results for users’ searches.
So, as you prepare to start writing content for your site, make sure to do some research first to see:
- What topics may be more or less interesting to users
- How users are searching for these topics online (i.e., what keyword phrases are more popularly used for searches on a given topic).
Knowing these things before you start writing new content can help you craft more effective, better optimized content.
2 – Make sure your content is unique and original.
Even if you are writing about topics that have been well or thoroughly covered by other online sources, as you draft content for your website, make sure that you:
- Never copy any content from other sites (even it’s just a few sentences or paragraphs)
- Write original content that is free from typos, grammatical errors, etc.
Putting duplicate content on your website can not only cause you to lose your authority and credibility with your audience, but it can also result in your site:
- Losing traffic and rankings
- Potentially receiving penalties from search engines (and coming back after these penalties can be a long and possibly expensive journey).
