How can content marketing Improve your Business

Content marketing is the type marketing that doesn’t cost anything. It’s as profitable a marketing strategy as paid search advertising or paid social marketing. So below we will be discussing the profitability of content marketing and whether to invest your resources into it, also we will guide you through building a successful content marketing campaign that’ll get results.

The purpose of Content Marketing

You have probably heard many times of the importance of keeping a blog and creating social content. Assessing the necessity is the first step to a good content marketing campaign. Does this align with your business model ? Do you have the right resource to upkeep the blog of a site ? Content marketing is a lot of work.  If you don’t see how content marketing can serve you, or if you don’t have the means to update the blog periodically, now is not the right time to launch content marketing.

If content marketing serves your business model and you have the resources to run the blog, ask yourself this next :  What’s your goal ? In other words, what are you trying to accomplish with a content marketing campaign ?

For an e-commerce website, your goal would be to increase your conversion rate by producing highly convertible content. Ecommerce conversion rate refers to the percentage of website visitors who make a purchase on the site.

The conversion rate in a broader sense refers to the percentage of users who take a calculated move. It could be based on a number of indicators, such as the percentage of people who filled out and submitted the contact form, or the percentage of people who RSVP’d to the webinar series.

You need to know your keywords

Identify keywords and do a deep dive with tools like Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and Moz. what do you know about your client demographics, and what does that tell you about the kind of content you should produce? Put yourself in your customers shoes. What are the keywords and phrases they’d type into a search engine in the hopes to find a service like yours?

Once you have the keywords that will work for the customer, scratch your customers itch. What would they like to know about your product before they purchase it ? do a thorough review of your products and share glowing reviews from influencers and bloggers.

Search optimize your blog to rank on top

When a customer searches for your product or services, you want to be visible on the Search Engine Results Page (SERP). Ideally, you want to rank on the first page, and high on top of the page. The first two to three links on top with the “Ad” signs are links being advertised via paid search marketing. The goal is to rank in the top five under the ad links on the SERP.

We would suggest aiming for long-tail keywords for effective Search Optimize Engine (SEO). With so many contents available on the web, it’s hardly impossible to not rank well with a single keyword. Producing content with long-tail keywords has the added benefit of strengthening the main keyword of your blog site. For example, let’s say you run a company selling bathrobes. Instead of only targeting “bathrobes” keywords, you’d create multiple articles targeting long-tail keywords such as “100 percent Egyptian cotton bathrobes”, “hotel quality bathrobes”, “best selling bathrobes on amazon” and so on.

Promote on Social Media

Your content needs to be shareable on social as well as discoverable on search engines. Depending on your content type and topic, you might find more success in one channel than the other. The truth is, some articles spread like wildfire on social media.

Choose the right type of social media for your content. If you write content that is shareable on social media, you will do well on social link building on networks like Facebook and Twitter. If you produce quality images, Instagram and Pinterest are good networks to a following and attract users to visit your site.

Fine-tune for continued success 

For an e-commerce website, you can review the conversion rate for each of your articles. You can browse the articles in a given data range or list the articles covering a specific topic to measure the success of your strategies.

Working with data is all about being consistent. Find an analytics tool that best suits your needs, and keep a habit of recording your data on a weekly basis.

What is Identity design?

Let’s get started on the definition of Identity Design, what does the term brand identity mean?

Brand Identity represents a collection of all elements created to portray the correct image to its customers. Being completely different from your “brand image” and “branding” even though this is treated as interchangeable.

Your brand is the perception of the company in the worlds view.

Key elements which make up your brand:

  • What is your mission? (Your “why?”)
  • What is your values? (The beliefs that drive your company)
  • What is your brands personality? (If your company was a person, what kind of personality would they have?)
  • What is your unique positioning? (How do you separate yourself against your competition?)
  • What is your brands voice? (Again, if your company was a person, how would they communicate?)

These are the basics which define your brand, and before you start building your brands identity, it is important to have an absolute clear understanding on each of these points.
