Considerations for news content marketing
Implementing a news content marketing strategy can play a really secure part in kicking off an initial search marketing campaign.
Businesses that publish news content to their website are not risking huge chunks of budget or taking risks that could see them slide quickly down the rankings. Instead, they are developing their websites in a way that has been shown numerous times to find favour with the search engines.
So for those businesses considering a news strategy for their marketing, what important points are there to remember?
Quality
Firstly, the articles need to be of a good quality. There is no point in publishing content to a website that has taken time to create if it’s not of a very good quality. Users will quickly navigate away from content that doesn’t grab their attention and the search engines will quickly follow. Instead, ensure the content is well-written and engaging. That way, consumers will be more likely to keep returning and the search engines will afford the site much more authority.
Non-promotional
The whole point of content marketing is to approach marketing in a much less sales-orientated manner. This is also true of news.
As with on the TV or radio, news published online should be impartial and unbiased. Telling the story with a sales element makes it more of a pitch than a news story and will be found out as having an agenda pretty quickly. It may sound counter-intuitive, but this is industry news, not a sales brochure; so should be treated as such.
Images
News always looks better with images, so ensure you complement your article with an attention-grabbing picture. Not only will this break up the text of a story – as well as make it easier to digest – but also works well in the eyes of the users and search engines. This will add to the authority placed upon the story by search engines and make it more likely to drive the site further up the search rankings.
News is one of the most fool-proof ways of online marketing; there are just a few rules worth sticking to.
