Think of content marketing like a first date. If all you do is talk about yourself, you’re unlikely to get a second date. People aren’t primarily reading your content to get to know your company. Your audience is trying to solve a problem or get insights into a subject that is of genuine interest to them. The conundrum is that to ensure your content is consumed and appreciated, you must have a well-planned SEO strategy. To get content that meets your SEO needs, you need a content strategy and a way to convey that plan and its objectives to the copywriter.

If it's Too Long to Read, it's Too Easy to Ignore!

The Neilson Norman Group, a company that studies user-experience, estimates that most users, on an average web page, only read a maximum 28% of the words. According to NNG, “more realistically, users will read about 20% of the text on the average page.” New users tend to read less, while an established audience may read more. Longer content isn’t always consumed by the reader. The TLDR syndrome, otherwise known as “too long; didn’t read,” is real. The solution is finding ways to keep the user engaged, rather than just posting shorter articles.

During any crisis, where do people turn to get answers? Whether you’re looking for dried beans during the COVID-19 pandemic or wondering how to find your insurer after a devastating thunderstorm, you’re going to ask a search engine.

Here's How to Cope and Adjust

COVID-19 has completely changed how businesses operate. Maybe your business is on hold while you wait for things to get back to normal. Or you’re an essential business trying to continue to operate under stressful circumstances. Your content strategy may not be a priority on your mind. However, your customer is at home, trying to find a useful distraction (because they’ve finished combing through Netflix)! You may have a content calendar all lined up for the next few months, which is good. Yet you don’t want to appear indifferent to what is going on with your audience. How can you continue to engage your audience during difficult times? The answer is to evaluate your content against your brand’s values and your audience’s needs.

Shifting Content Marketing Focus from Word Count to Reader Count

SEO writers have been trying to find the perfect formula for high SEO rankings for decades. One recent trend in SEO is long form content, articles that are 2,000 words and even longer. While there is evidence that long form content does get reader engagement and adds to your SEO ranking, it’s not essential for getting rankings. Shorter articles that are well written and relevant to your reader can rank just as well, even better than low-quality long form content. There’s no magic number for word count. Long form content shouldn’t be your goal. The goal is audience engagement.

Check the Essentials as You Build Your Content Marketing Plan

As a content marketing agency, we hear it all the time from clients. “We don’t have a brief for you, but we know what results we want to see from our content marketing efforts. You have the best SEO writers on your team—they can pull something out of their magic hats, right?” Of course, we can! There’s just one problem; even these accomplished, highly creative, SEO experts and terrific writers do need a starting point, i.e., a hat. You see, one hat doesn’t fit all. So, if you want doves, we need the hat that can generate doves. If you want rabbits, we need a different hat that we can plunge into for rabbits. And so on…

Include Your POV to Encourage Conversion

Imagine how differently we'd see Star Wars if it was told through the eyes of a stormtrooper trying to get his next promotion or through Chewbacca's point of view. The reader of a story interprets the tale through the perspective of the narrator. Choosing an engaging and valuable point of view (POV) is essential to the narrative. You may not think of your content as a novel or a movie, but you're still telling a story through your blogs, email newsletters, videos, and other forms of digital content.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,…” The opening paragraph of “A Tale of Two Cities” is considered one of literature’s greatest openers. Back in 1859, in times when reading books was possibly one of the few indoor entertainment activities people engaged in, Charles Dickens had the skill to hook the reader right at the start. Of course, he also had the skill to finish with a flourish — “It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.” That closing line is among those most praised in literature.

Getting back to the point—you can transform every introduction into an irresistible hook that commands your audience's attention. Here are some ideas for creating an opening that will resonate with your audience and stay with them.

Your Audience Cares about Smart Content (and so does Google!)
The length of content has been hotly debated for years. Ask the experts and you’ll get opinions that favor either side. It's like an ongoing arm-wrestling match between two equally fierce contenders. In the blue corner, we have the heavyweight champion of information, the Long-Form Content. With its vast word count and lengthy videos, it's like an all-you-can-eat buffet of knowledge. In the red corner, we have the nimble and attention-grabbing Short-Form Content. Like a swift and satisfying snack, it quickly captivates your audience. Think hors d'œuvres (or amuse-bouche if you want a ‘fancier’ analogy!).

Long-form content has benefits of keeping your reader engaged. Short-form content can grab the reader’s attention without a big commitment. Which one suits your needs? Let’s dig deeper to answer that question.
