‘Content is King’ is a term we are hearing time and time again, and clearly, the term ‘Content in King’ is not some passing phase.
Killer content is something that’s definitely here to stay so if your website lacks high-quality, well written, interesting and resourceful content now is definitely the time to rethink your content marketing strategy.
Review your Content
First things first: It’s essential that you navigate through every page of your website and review all content. Is it interesting, valuable and concise? Does it serve a purpose? Does it sit nicely with your brand’s voice?
A page with endless streams of dull, block text is quickly going to lead to poor visitor retention levels. People are no longer interested in reading pages and pages of content. What they want is a concise roundup that perfectly elaborates on your page titles. If your site lacks appeal, visitors will quickly exit and instead visit one of your competitors.
Review each page of your site and either rewrite that content or delete it completely if it doesn’t serve a clear purpose. Then, ensure that your pages are visibly appealing with plenty of images, bullet points, paragraphs and subheadings. In addition, check for any dead or broken links.
What’s your Content Strategy?
The next step is to devise a content marketing strategy. This strategy should take into account your brand’s voice as well as how often you intend to post content, and where. Will you set up a blog? Perhaps you are planning to record podcasts? Are you thinking about infographics or social media, or even a combination of the above?
Whatever your intentions, it’s critical that all content posted across all channels is well written, properly branded and of course, meaningful. If you can bring meaning to your readers, they will be more likely to return to your website time and time again, which can very quickly equate to more customers. This is also a great way to encourage word of mouth marketing.
