CONTENT TYPES & PLANNING

April 22, 2016 by Prosper Taruvinga Blog, Content Strategy, Digital Marketing, Entreprenuer, Mobile SEO, SEO, Social Media

Content strategy is at the heart of SEO; it results in inbound links, social signals, and brand trust, and provides fuel to search engines in the form of organized, informative material. But how do you know where to start? How do you create and publish content that will result in positive ROI? To start, you need to have a good understanding of who your target market is, what they like, and what they tend to share. This will give you the insight you need to create the most effective and engaging content. Begin by taking some time to look at what’s working for your competitors. Take note of what your customers and target audience tends to share the most. What gets the most tweets, likes, and shares within your industry? Is it breaking news? How-to guides? Industry expertise? Simple little tips? Once you have some basic topic ideas, it’s time to start planning. There are many different types of content that you can create, depending on what your goal is. Here’s a simple guide to some different types of content and what they’re best used for.

Content Planning

BEST FOR ENTERTAINMENT:
• Quizzes
• Games
• Branded videos

 

BEST USED TO EDUCATE:
• Press releases
• Infographics
• Trend reports

BEST TO INSPIRE YOUR AUDIENCE:
• Reviews
• Celebrity endorsements
• Community forums

BEST USED TO CONVINCE YOUR AUDIENCE OF SOMETHING:
• Case studies
• Interactive demo’s
• Webinars
• Checklists
• Product features
• Data sheets and price guides

GOOD FOR BOTH CONVINCING AND INSPIRING:

• Special events
• Ratings

GOOD FOR BOTH ENTERTAINMENT & EDUCATION:
• e-books
• Articles

GOOD FOR BOTH CONVINCING AND EDUCATION:
• Demo videos
• Whitepapers

As you can see, there are many types of content – blog posts are not the only option. Your goal should be to develop content that engages your audience while providing useful, helpful, or entertaining information. Aim to become the go-to resource for your industry and your brand, along with your audience, will bloom. The easiest and most effective way to plan your content strategy is to use an editorial calendar. Plan when you’re going to publish blog posts, videos, and white papers, and adhere to the schedule. The more consistently and the more frequently you post, the better—but remember, quality needs to be your top concern.
