A content marketing strategy is unique to every business
When understood and implemented correctly a content marketing strategy will positively impact your business and brand.
It will help your audience to find you and to build trust as an authority so that your audience engage with you.
It will guide your prospect to make a confident and informed click of ‘buy now’ or ‘sign-up’.
Churning out content to a content calendar without a strategy, not knowing your keywords, not being aware of your goals or even your audience needs will not bring results.
Anyone can get lucky with a one-off piece of content that gets traffic.
But, being able to drive targeted relevant traffic on a sustained basis and grow brand authority across digital channels is a different challenge that you need an expert for.
The ShellShock Content Strategy
We can review your current site to take an inventory of what content you already have.
An audit tells us what pages can be improved, what needs deleting because it could be harming your site and what content you’re missing that will benefit your site.
We collate data by doing a full URL crawl of the site – analytics data from Google Search Console and Google Analytics; link and ranking data from third party sources.
We do a manual review of pages to evaluate the quality of your content and usability.
We manually review the SERPs to asses what other types of content are being surfaced in your niche that you might need to include.
We review the competing SERP listings to asses the quality of what pages you are against and to look for insights.
