How to Easily Create High-Quality Marketing Content

Tell me if this sounds like you:

You work at or own a small business, you know how important having quality content is for SEO, but you also know how hard it is to execute.

You have to research your keywords, write and edit the article, publish them, then promote them via social media and email marketing. You’re already dedicating your time and money to a lot of other things. How and when are you going to figure out what to write about to be effective?

The right content makes all the difference when it comes to search engine optimization (SEO). This is a common scenario nowadays, and with more and more small businesses doing content marketing, you must too or risk getting left behind.

57% of small businesses consider quality content creation to be the most effective marketing tactic to perform, but 47% of those same small business consider it to be the toughest thing to do (source).

That presents a serious issue. If the toughest thing to do is also the most effective, then making that tough thing easier is imperative. Especially since content marketing is such an effective source of traffic and leads for small businesses.

So how do you make creating high-quality marketing content easier?

Typically you have to hire a copywriter or marketing professional if you want higher quality content. Of course, that costs time and money! Typically it can cost $50 a pop for a well-written article from a freelancer. Instead of doing that, I suggest trying BoostSuite. It makes creating high-quality marketing content easy, saving you time and generating results. Here’s how:

  1. BoostSuite tells you what to write about – That’s right. No need to wonder if the keyword you’re focusing on is good or not. No manual keyword research required. As the tool crawls your site, it finds keywords that are relevant to your business and automatically analyzes them for opportunity and presents them to you in an organized table in the product.

If you need some inspiration on what to write about once you have your focus keywords, check out this article. After you write an article or two, take a step back and review them from the perspective of your audience. Ask yourself the following questions:

  • Are they tool sales-y?
  • Do they have a clear take-away or call-to-action?
  • Do you connect emotionally with the reader?
  • Is there substance to the article?
  • Do they flow well?
  • Are they free of grammatical errors?

Follow these guidelines for both your own website content as well as the content you share with your co-marketing partners in BoostSuite and you’ll have a much better chance of writing high-quality marketing content and being successful with it.
