5 Content Marketing Tips For Fresher Minds

Why content creation is hard.

Content creation is just plain hard for every marketer, but that will probably change when you read these 5 content marketing tips!



Are you wondering why your content’s doesn’t really add that much? You knew that contents play an important part when it comes to your traffic, your reputation and your SEO. You, too, know that there should be at least new effects with your website. But you wonder yourself, why don’t changes happen? Why can’t your website attract much website traffic, despite the fact that you already posted a lot of traffic? Is it about the value of my contents?

The truth is that you contents may not be likeable at all. Content creation is not just about posting something on the internet. It’s not just about putting contents for the sake that your website needs it. You must be able to create contents which are worth reading. You must create contents that could attract guaranteed website traffic.

You must also remember that it should also lead your current viewers to a state where they decided if they will patronize your brand or not. Your contents should be great enough to convert your normal viewers into targeted traffic. But how will you be able to do that?

1. As much as possible, make it timely
Do you think your viewers would read something that is outdated? In my opinion, they won’t even waste a time peeking at your contents. Make it timely and current. Use the latest news, happenings and events as part of your article. In this way, more viewers can relate to your content.

2. Don’t just follow the mass
Going with the majority will not make you stand out. If you still use this strategy for your contents, you won’t be able to attract more viewers. Sometimes, you must try and go against the popular choice. Create an issue, buzz and noise on the internet. This may attract haters, but it gives you a different taste, viewers and a lot of attention.

3. Don’t leave your niche
Sometimes, it would be very enticing to write something that goes far from your niche, but please stop this urge ASAP. Do not create contents that are not related with your topic. You’ll get lesser targeted traffic if you do this strategy for your business.

4. Create good contents and come up with a GREATER title
One good way of attracting readers is to come up with good contents but better title. Your headlines are the ones that first appear on your reader’s screen. No matter how great your content is, it won’t be read unless you have a good title with it.

5. Share , share and even share more
How can you get more viewers for your website? You can’t just let your viewers do all the work. Share your contents online! Post it on various social networking sites! Creating the “perfect” content is virtually impossible.

Just remember to write with your best shot and create contents that you think are worthy reading as a reader. Don’t think like a marketer when creating contents. Write for your website traffic and not for others!
