Alyssa, our special guest today, gives us some helpful tips on producing more niche-specific content.
Introduction:
Marketers can ensure the success of online advertisement campaigns by employing a few simple steps to create useful content which customers find useful and tailor-made to their needs.
Customer oriented approach:
The best way to know what type of content is desired by the targeted customer base is to get their direct feedback. It’s as simple as that! It’s never a get idea to take refuge in guesswork and try to gauge the requirement of the audience since more often than not such estimates turn out be horribly wrong and cause irreversible damage in terms of goodwill. Various methods ranging from the traditional to the modern can be used for data collection. While calling up the customer is not a bad idea and mostly yields very good results it can be a bit costly if large number of respondents are involved. Leveraging the power of social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook is a smart option given the twin advantages of massive geographical reach and low cost. The focus must always be on the customer and their relevant needs.
Content:
While marketing a product it’s best to remember that “content is king”. Sites should analyze exactly what type of material like videos, URL’s and landing pages are doing the trick for them. Social and web media analytical tools can be used to generate the required information. The results can be different for each and every site. Based on the results workable content must be retained and useless materials should be discarded. Efforts can also be made to further improve the quality of the existing successful material through regular updates. The focus must always be on the customer and their relevant needs.
Keywords:
Some of the best designed content can come up short due to the absence of relevant keywords. It’s important to realize that most people search something on the internet with the help of keywords. Hence it’s critical to figure out exactly what types of keywords are most likely to appeal to the target audience when they are searching for information on a particular product. Failure to do this correctly can almost certainly mean failure.
Originality:
An approach that can work wonders is to innovate and launch content which is completely original in nature. The right material can go viral on the web and can ensure unprecedented publicity for a product. However this can be a bit risky since any inappropriate content deployed can put off several prospective customers and comes with the baggage of negative publicity.
Trend Analysis:
A far less risky approach is to analyze the latest online trends and design an alternate response which eliminates the flaws of existing content in addition to bringing about a substantial improvement. Putting forward a different take on the subject in the form of a unique opinion can weave a lot of magic with clients and bring them to the company’s fold.
Utilizing content optimization tools:
It’s not possible for people to track each and every trend on the internet and act upon them. It makes a lot of sense to take the aid of online content optimization tools like Word Tracker and Inbound Writer which aid in tracking commonly searched keywords and phrases thereby saving a lot of time.
Conclusion:
Using the right techniques in content creation usually gives positive results like increased audience exposure and positive publicity. This benefits products in the form of increased sales.
