John Mann SEO Consulting is a content marketing agency in Nashville, Tennessee with nearly a decade of content creation and marketing experience. While content marketing is certainly time consuming, the concept is much easier than it sounds. In the digital marketing world, there is a saying that “content is king”. It’s important that your business website is always updated with fresh content that answers the most important questions your customers are asking. Without updating your website with regular blog posts, your company will only be able to rank for it’s internal pages (“About Us”, “Our Mission”, etc.).

Content marketing should be seen as new opportunities to post to social media which creates a revolving door that brings new visitors to your company's website. The more blog posts your company has published, the more organic visitors the website is going to generate from search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo. However, it’s important that your content is tailored in a way that builds trust and generates conversions. A successful conversion might include a customer inquiring about your business through phone or email or making a purchase on the website.

Where does a business owner go to find new ideas and topics to write about? One of the first steps you could take is to enter search terms into Google that relate to your business and click “news”. There, you will find trending news based on those keywords. You might also check a competitor’s blog to see what kind of content they’re writing about. It’s perfectly fine to write on some of the same topics as your competitors as long as the content you publish is in your own words. Business owners that are more advanced might use tools like BuzzSumo or Google Trends to find trending news in your industry. If your business already has a company blog established, you might look into Google Search Console to see which phrases your website is ranking for but would like to improve on. You would then create new content containing those phrases and keywords. Creating content centered around local news is very important and can help your brand’s local SEO strategy. Our staff publishes a lot of articles about important business news in Nashville, Tennessee.
