The 6 goals of content marketing
To generate conversions and attract new prospects
As you are probably already aware, it has always been cheaper to achieve visibility through Google than it has with paid advertising, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. In certain cases, content marketing is a good alternative to Google ads because it can generate conversions with a lower budget. Your goal is to create commitment and bring quality traffic to your website. It is important to properly study the semantic fields and to analyze the strategies of your competitors.
To tell a story and develop your branding
It is becoming increasingly clear that it is better to come up with good content ideas that your customer will want to click on, than to force your reader to see an ad they don’t want to see. Therefore, the creation of quality content through storytelling and the definition of an effective editorial line must be an integral part of your marketing strategy. So, if you manage to create innovative, fun content that can generate emotion, you’re onto a winner.
To create viral content and to use video
Video is the most viewed format on the internet. It is an essential element in any good content marketing strategy. It incorporates an entertainment angle that a blog post generally won’t have. Creating good videos can help you leapfrog your competition. For 80% of consumers, a company that produces video marketing content is one that is more engaged with its customers.
To solve problems for your customers
Your customers are on the internet in search for a solution to their problem. Who today doesn’t ask Google at least 1 or 2 questions per day? It is therefore imperative that you create content that answers the questions they ask.
To become a recognized benchmark or influencer
Your content is so popular that you have become a reference point in the field. You have thousands of subscribers to your YouTube channel and you are offered partnerships with other sites or blogs. You have become a real “influencer” and all content posted generates thousands of visitors. You are only a step away from reaching the top.
To boost your SEO
Finally, and if you have worked well on the previous objectives, then you will be able to improve your organic traffic and SEO. Remember that in 2019, it is no longer possible to attain good search engine results with poor quality content. You first have to create content that appeals to your target before it can please Google.
Conclusion: So how do you optimize your content marketing strategy ?
Content that you create needs to grab the attention of your users
