How to Create Link-Worthy Content Without Spending a Dime

Create Link-Worthy Content

We know that SEO is one of the most effective ways to drive high-quality traffic to our website. However, good quality backlinks continue to be the foundation of every successful SEO strategy. They help improve the rankings of your website as well as your content such as blog posts & infographics. One great backlink to your home page has the potential to boost the rankings of every page on your website.

So what is the simplest way to get backlinks?

Sure, you can slip into the shady corners of the internet looking for high-authority websites that will give you an easy backlink, or dive into the numerous black hat forums that let you buy hundreds of links for a pittance. However, as we’ve seen from the numerous horror stories of websites being penalized, you can’t game link building – you need to earn backlinks.

The simplest way to earn quality backlinks is to create link-worthy content. It may sound boring but trust me, it’s a lot easier and faster to earn backlinks this way than spam thousands of bloggers with your commenting or broken link outreach strategy.

Let’s go deeper and see how content earns links, and how you can engineer your content to do all the link building on its own.

Let’s face the truth: there is something common between a corporate giant’s brand and a startup’s brand: if it’s unable to differentiate itself, it will be lost soon. But there are higher chances that a new brand will be the first one to lose the game.

Here’s the proof: 59% of people over the globe prefer purchasing from a brand they’re familiar with, according to a survey conducted by Nielsen.

So, if you’re a startup launching a product for the first time, you should make sure your brand stands out from the crowd. That’s when you need a brand identity.

Not sure how to bring out the unique personality of your brand when there are millions of other brands combating for the same market share?

Here’s a simple formula: the stronger the brand identity is, the higher are the chances of success.

In this post, we’ll guide you through the five basic steps of developing brand identity.

Video Marketing Analytics

Videos will account for 80% of consumer internet within the next 4 years. With videos becoming such a huge part of digital marketing, businesses are scrambling to churn out amazing out-of-the-box video content to engage their target market and boost their SEO efforts. But is it really working?

Only 35% of businesses are using intermediate or advanced video marketing analytics to measure the performance of their videos. That means an astounding 65% of businesses are investing in videos without really understanding if it’s providing them the results they want.

To get the most out of your video marketing campaigns, it’s essential to get to grips with video marketing analytics. Let’s take a look at how we can exploit video marketing analytics to get the data we want.

White Paper or Case Study

White papers and case studies can both be used as tools for SEO. Knowing which one to use at any given time can mean the difference between maximising SEO and realizing no results for your efforts. And the absolute worse thing for any SEO endeavor is not achieving the expected results as this costs both time and money. To that end, in this article we discuss the how, the where, and the why of using a white paper or a case study in a specific situation.

For purposes of definition, a white paper is a formal and informative piece of content that seeks to establish an organization’s position on a given matter. As such, it can have tremendous SEO value from a B2B perspective. A well-researched and professionally written white paper can establish a company’s authority among those kinds of customers most likely to purchase goods and services.

A case study is equally informative and formal, but its purpose is entirely different. Rather than establishing company authority, a case study establishes the company as a preferred solution provider to a core group of potential customers. Case studies demonstrate that the organization has already met similar challenges in the past to the degree that they are more than capable of handling those same challenges in the future.

Outreach Strategy

Backlinks are awesome!

But forget them. Banish them from your mind because an insatiable desire for backlinks corrupts, turning you into a monster who forgets all about value, relationships, and treating people well. Your family doesn’t even recognize you anymore!

Dramatic much? Maybe.

Look, everyone tells us how important backlinks are. Backlinks boost our SEO efforts, making us more visible on Google. We all know this, and it’s no wonder so many of us are chasing them via outreach marketing, which is a great way of getting our content and brand in front of more eyes. It boosts our prestige, increases people’s trust in us, and ultimately it increases our conversions and sales.

Consumers are increasingly relying on the digital world to find the most suitable products and services for their daily requirements. According to Google, over 80 percent of consumers use search engines to gain information about local businesses and products.

Digital Marketing Manager

Consequently, the role of digital marketing and the digital marketing manager is becoming extremely vital to the long-term success of an online business. If you are a digital marketing manager, here are seven things you must consider, to stay competitive and grow your online business.

Content marketing is meant to elicit an interest in a brand with the help of online materials such as blogs, videos, infographics, and other audio or visual pieces. Many companies forget that optimizing their content marketing materials through an SEO (Search Engine Optimization) lens can greatly improve the organic search profile of a brand.

Benefits of Content Marketing

To put this in perspective:

Content marketing consists of broad and holistic marketing practices
SEO is more technical and has a narrower focus (organic search results)

With this in mind, let’s see how a content marketing strategy connects with SEO, and consider the following tips.

In the early years of the internet, blogs started out as online journals – focusing more on sharing the writers’ experience and opinions with the world on a wide range of topics as opposed to the major platforms for promotions and business they are today. Nowadays, you’d be hard-pressed to find any major website without a blog that’s updated regularly with topics that vary from new product and service info to general authority building content.

The other major development in the blog ecosystem was the explosion of websites that allowed anyone to create a blog. This major development inconvenience resulted in an explosion in blogs created.

The 14 Best WordPress Plugins You Need Right Now

Plugins are there to make our lives easier, and I, for one, make the most of them. There are thousands available to add extra functionality to your WordPress site, covering everything from extra security measures and site backups to image galleries and social media. The best thing about these app-style add-ons is how easy they are to install and you don’t need much experience to use them.

With all this in mind, it’s easy to get carried away browsing the plugin libraries. Instead of creating a bloated user experience on a slow-moving site, consider a “less is more” approach. I tend to keep a tight ship on how many plugins I use. My WordPress-based site isn’t jam-packed with them; if they don’t serve a real purpose or aren’t necessary as a stand-alone download, they’re out.

Chances are, many of your site features and elements are or will be powered by plugins. They are an asset to any successful WordPress website. Keep in mind that adding plugins isn’t like collecting Pokemon. Just because there is a plugin for pretty much every function or feature you can think of doesn’t mean you should indulge in adding them all. Using too many can eat up disk space on your site’s server, make plugin management cumbersome or slow down the performance of your site. Worst case scenario – they can open your site up to being hacked.

Limiting the type and number of plugins you use is a great first step to improving your website. In this article, I’m going to give you a list of only mandatory WordPress plugins you need to use on your WordPress site. This includes plugins that improve security, SEO, user experience and backing up your content, as well as saving time and improving conversions.

If you don’t have these 12 WordPress plugins already, you should install them now to keep your site ticking along nicely.
