Content Creation

Content creation is the foundation of all modern digital marketing efforts. It’s defined as the process of conducting research, generating strategic ideas, crafting those ideas into high-value collateral and then promoting those pieces to a target audience. Digital content takes many forms, including web pages, blogs, infographics, videos and social media posts.

The main objective of content creation is to attract new and returning customers. Inbound marketing strategies give away high-value digital media for free. This content establishes your brand’s thought leadership while providing readers with the information they need to make a purchasing decision.

Brands use different types of content at each stage of the marketing funnel. At the top of the funnel, search engine optimized (SEO) blogs organically attract new visitors. 

Why is Great Content So Important?

Millions of pieces of content are published online every single day. To stand out and make an impact on your customers (and potential customers), your content needs to be of a high quality. That means it’s not only written and designed well, but also that it’s developed with the needs of your audience in mind. The difference between high-quality and poor-quality content is stark — great content rises to the surface while poor content disappears into the void of the internet.

The amount of effort you put into your brand’s content is directly proportional to the value you get from it. High-quality content will help you:

  • Stand out as an authoritative thought leader.
  • Grow your subscribers and email list.
  • Increase your website traffic.
  • Keep your customers engaged.
  • Generate revenue.
Types of Content

Content comes in all shapes and sizes. It can be a piece of writing, audio, video or an image. Some of the types of content you’ll find in marketing include:

  • Written content: Blogs, SEO articles, white papers, eBooks, emails, social media posts.
  • Imagery: Infographics, GIFs.
  • Audio: Podcasts, audiobooks.
  • Video: Animations, webinars, talking heads.

We’ll take a deeper look at some of the most common forms of content marketing, but first let’s understand how SEO plays a role in content creation.
