Content Marketing 4h Fusion Digital August 8, 2022

A content marketing agency is the 'engine' to help you

build your brand & grow your business

Technical SEO alone will rarely result in the surging organic traffic levels you desire from your SEO efforts.

You know, the kind that drives a steady stream of inbound enquiries and customers to your business.

The kind that continues to reward you over and over againoff the back of work you did 12 months ago!

Work that builds authority, credibility and trust in your brand, products and services; resulting in higher performance across ALL your marketing efforts.

A continuous cycle of engaging new and existing audiences, nurturing both prospects and customers through the buying journey, creating a snowball effect of ever growing traffic, leads and sales… all ORGANICALLY.

One downside though: If you get SUPER busy and are overrun with enquiries and sales… you can’t turn it off! The enquiries will keep on rolling in, even if you pause your paid media campaigns.

Of course we’re talking about the power of effective and commercially focused content marketing.

Why is content marketing so powerful?

content provides Value

Providing value builds trust and authority.

Value captures attention

"I like you and I trust that you can help me."

attention creates awareness

Of who you are and the solutions you offer.

awareness + trust = customers

If you have solid, full funnel strategy & execution.

content marketing fused with SEO, generates long term growth of traffic, leads & sales

The problem is SEO content marketing
Means different thingsto different people
With MASSIVE variationsin quality and effectiveness
What Basic (usually low performing)SEO Content Marketing Looks Like
Find some long tail keywords

With no real prioritisation based on data and not connected to a strategy

Create average content around keywords

Written by generic content writers rather than subject matter experts and not tied to a commercial strategy

'Optimisations'

The basics like meta data, header tags, internal links, snippets and sprinkling keywords in the content

Repeat

Talk through random data and tell you what the numbers are without meaning, direction, attribution or correlation

Commercial viability based on Your goals Current benchmarks The competition Your authority Your audience Your marketing investment

A content marketing agency shouldn’t just post a couple blogs around some keywords every month. You need a strategic content calendar aligned with business goals.

Taking account of the traffic value of search terms and your current ability to compete in this space.

Too often content agencies aim too high and invest a lot of time, money and resources chasing something they might not be able to achieve or driving traffic that doesn’t translate into business growth.

This part of the process ensures you have the right content marketing approach, focused on the right areas and targeting the right keywords to generate faster and greater ROI.

  • Identify the viable entry point for maximum performance
  • Short, medium and long term plan
  • Prioritise the fastest return on investment but with a big picture view
  • Traffic value assessment to ensure efforts translate into business growth
