What's the MAIN Goal of Your SEO Program?

It's a question we often ask our clients and we usually get some standard responses such as:

  • We need better visibility on the Internet
  • To enhance brand awareness
  • Drive more search traffic to our site
  • Optimize our already stretched marketing budget - spend less on offline marketing  
  • Beat the competition - our competitors are stealing our cheese!
  • Get more leads through our site

All of these are valid reasons and good objectives to run a search engine optimization (SEO) program. As we have seen in many cases though, you can drive all the traffic in the world to your website and still be conversion-deprived. That's just not any good at all. The one, overarching goal, therefore, that should encompass all of these is to have an integrated online marketing strategy with measurable results and return on investment. 

How do you achieve that? With consistently good content that adds value and connects with your target audience.

Building a Sustainable SEO Content Marketing Strategy

Let's ask a few pertinent questions here. Publishing valuable content is not easy. 
Does it take effort? Yes. 
Does it take time. Certainly. 
Does it require skilled resources? Of course! 

Is it expensive? Not if you consider the return on investment and the damage that poor quality content can cost you.

What is it worth in the end? If it is done the right way - it's worth more than you can count! 

Think about what a happy customer is worth. What is a referral from a satisfied customer worth? What value will you attach to a prospect that regularly interacts with you through social media and other online touch points, gradually progressing through the sales cycle towards conversion.

Are you likely to fail sometimes or not score as high as you want? That too. But as Jonathan Mildenhall, VP Global Creative at Coca Cola says, "If you don't have the room to fail, you don't have the right to grow."

At MintCopy, we want you to be more successful with your SEO strategy. We want your SEO content to fail less and win more. We want to help your online marketing efforts to get more bang for the buck and not fall easy and frequent prey to the almighty Google's changes and algorithm updates. Enough of that already! Adaptive SEO is not rocket science; it is a realistic, but painstakingly careful way of conducting organic search marketing for your business.

Do you want to know more about adaptive SEO and how your SEO goals and objectives can be accomplished? Connect with us and let's discuss. We have a team of highly qualified and widely experienced SEO writers capable of producing good quality, audience-focused, search-friendly content for your business.

In the past month alone, our team has worked with more than a few small businesses all fired up to jump on the content marketing bandwagon. Because guess what, they have heard of ChatGPT and other ‘magical’ content creation tools that fill them with confidence that they too can dish out content like a pro. Of course they can, with one caveat though—digital content, whether created using generative AI or by professional copywriters must serve a human audience for whom it proves undeniably valuable. So, we’ll take this opportunity to go back to the basics and cover the essentials of how to function effectively in the realm of digital content marketing.

What Kind of Material Should I Read for Business Insights?

Reading is like the spinach of the writing world, except instead of bulging muscles, it gives you bulging vocabularies! The more you read, the more you absorb the written word and the better equipped you are to string together coherent sentences that engage, convert, and transform. It's like a superpower, except instead of flying or shooting lasers out of your eyes, you can craft an epic tale that will make people laugh, cry, and question their existence all at once. So don't skip your literary greens, folks. Your writing muscles will thank you!
Are you struggling to write compelling content for your business? Don't worry, you're not alone. But before you hit that panic button, remember what Stephen King said, "If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that." Yes, that Stephen King. The horror writer. If he can dish out writing advice, so can we! And the advice is simple: read. Here are 3 reasons to build a reading habit.

Content Marketing Best Practices that Garner Attention

Remember the movie, “Field of Dreams”? It made popular the phrase, “If you build it, he will come”. Shoeless Joe and other baseball legends may have magically appeared on a cornfield-turned-baseball diamond. However, when it comes to content marketing, your audience will need more than a field of dreams to attract their attention. If you’re trying to get more traffic to your website, don’t wait for your local SEO efforts to direct your audience. Give them a hand with these proven content strategies.

How to Use a Pillar Page to Improve your Content Quality

Consider the dictionary meaning of ‘pillar’ – “a firm, upright support for a superstructure”, also defined as “a fundamental precept”. Your content marketing campaign is your ‘superstructure’ that requires a ‘firm, upright support’. That’s the key function of content pillar pages. Without these essential supports, your ‘content superstructure’ will neither stand strong, nor will it attract the right attention.

Two Proven Ways to Organize Products with Similar Keywords

In business, cannibalization typically refers to a loss of sales. A company introduces a new product that displaces sales of an older, usually more outdated, product. Instead of having an increase in sales, the market growth remains stable. What does this mean in the world of SEO and content marketing? Keyword cannibalization occurs when two products have similar keywords or phrases and confuses the search engines about which page is right for which query. Instead of competing with other businesses for search traffic, you’re competing with your own web pages. Here’s why keyword cannibalization is bad for business and how you can overcome it.

How to Optimize your Content for a Global Audience

The global market is much smaller than it once was.  Statista reports over 5 billion internet users globally, or about 63.1% of the population. Reaching out to a broader market can help your business grow, but it’s not as simple as updating your website in a new language and simply hoping your audience finds you through search.

How to Build a Functional Content Marketing Funnel

Most people don’t wake up and think, “oh, today is the day I buy my new mattress,” unless they’ve researched different brands and checked pricing at different stores. Modern customers often take their time with major (and even minor) purchases. Using that information about today’s shoppers can help you design a content marketing map, or funnel, that guides the customer to your product.
