Content is important in any website. That’s the truth. In order to succeed online, you must provide excellent content to your audience. The question now is, “How to exactly do this?”
- Set your goals.
In every strategy, you need to plan carefully. It is a must to establish goals and identify your audience even Google knows this. As discussed in the Search for Beginners Ep.1, Google emphasized on knowing who your target is, and knowing where to find them.
However, most people just ignore this step. No, don’t take this for granted. Often, plans fail because they weren’t able to capture the right audience. Perhaps, marketers offered a different content, and thus, the people weren’t interested.
So, you have to be specific on the WHO part. For instance, you are selling laptops to students. The typical student would want something handy and lightweight. Meanwhile, art and photography students would want a more sophisticated computer. They would need a computer for products like Adobe Photoshop, Light Room, and etc. These computer programs are hefty, and a basic computer just won’t do.
You could even write about laptop buying guides and budget friendly laptop. In the end, the content you put on your website should be personalized depending on your audience’s needs and interests.
- Join the bandwagon.
