this article you'll have a better understanding of how to improve your content
marketing growth strategy.
A
popular marketing trend right now is a technique called growth hacking which
applies simple and unique tricks that increase your traffic. It's likely you've
already tested out a few strategies because we all want to have a greater reach
but there are some top tips that will help you see traffic growth fast,
guaranteed!
Pick Strategic
Posting Times
Your
social media followers are not constantly logged in. This means that it's
imperative you utilize analytical tools to understand what your ideal posting
times are. Sharing content when most of your users are busy and not online
decreases the chances your content gets viewed. Whether it's Facebook or an
email, posting content during peak times will increase the likelihood your
content gets viewed.
If It Ranks, Add
More Value
Is
your post all of a sudden gaining viewers and ranking high? It's time to boost
it and do some hardcore editing to optimize it for conversion. Add images,
videos, industry influencer opinions, and more information you might have left
out before. What's the point of all this? To bump up the piece's ranking on
search engines.
The
SEO process never end. Even if you’re marketing a startup
or new website, SEO is important. There are many SEO starter guides out
there for you to follow along with. Always remember to stay on top of your
keyword analysis and enhance your overall online presence through proper link
building.
B2B Companies Require
Special Attention
B2B
marketing is a whole new ball game and when it comes to B2B SEO, keyword
research is completely different than B2C. The best way is to visualize B2C
as a very narrow and tall pyramid and B2B as a pyramid with a wide base. B2C
has few keywords to invest in and with B2B SEO there are many keywords that
you’ll need to sift through.
Nobody Has
Patience
Is
your content taking for-ev-er to load? The average website visitor will leave
your website in 10-20 seconds if it's taking too long to load (Source:
unbounce)? Don’t waste your users' precious time on website loading. Optimized
speed will increase page views and even revenue! There are plenty of plugins
you can look into getting to increase web performance.
Once In A While,
Revive Old Content
If
you've written some outstanding pieces that are a few years old than it might
be a good idea to consider giving them a makeover. Sometimes it's not necessary
to craft a new masterpiece all over again—simply revive the old content and
bring it up to date. Identify what segments are old and need rewriting and
you'll find yourself with a great new piece.
Make the Process Easier
When
a reader stumbles upon your content, there are many steps. First he has to read
the content, there might be a call to action or even a sign up form for them to
fill out. Does this help your user stay on your page or scare them away? In
order to convert your readers, conduct an experiment before you jump at them
with pop-up banners and landing pages. See what keeps them at bay and go from
there.
Connect With the
Influencers
Want
to add simple credibility to your content and improve your content marketing
growth? Then start
networking with industry influencers! Approach industry influencers with a genuine
interest and you could potentially unlock a large audience. Have them answer a
burning question or sprinkle some advice to readers. It's also likely they'll
distribute the content which equals growth!
Rich Snippets.
Improve Them.
Increase
the attention you're getting. When users search content, they're usually not
clicking every search result. Rich snippets are the few sentences under every
search result to give users a quick understanding of what they'll find on that
page. Control what is being shown under your search listing with some HTML
tricks and skills in order to get the most out of the content you're putting
out there.
Content
marketing growth is a trial and error process. Seek opportunity, be SEO-minded,
and always be looking for the next hot topic. Not every tip and trick will work
for you but it's important to find the ones that do work. Experiment with all
methods and soon enough you'll find the ones worthy of your time in order to
create a strategy.
Creating content is all about exposure otherwise,
it's just another page on the internet. Don't assume that just because it's out
there it'll get read. Growth hacking will help bring in traffic and secure the
amount of visitors you're bringing in if you're putting in the work.
