Are You Measuring The Real Impact Of Your Content Marketing?

Are You Measuring The Real Impact Of Your Content Marketing? | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

The main question every marketer needs to answer is, “Did our content resonate with the audience?”

Looking at common metrics such as likes, shares, tweets, views, and so on measures distribution. But wide distribution doesn’t necessarily mean you resonated with your audience by affecting their mindset.

Just because your clever article or professional video appeared before your audience, it doesn’t mean they engaged with it. It’s just there, one swipe or click away from being ignored. But once they pause long enough to let the video play or start reading the article, that’s when real resonance begins.

That engagement is what you should measure to determine the real impact of every piece of content....

Well, this slide here shows you that both business-to-business and business-to-consumer companies with 100 to 200 pages will generate 2.5 times as many leads compared to those who have 50 pages or fewer. It gives you an idea of where you are with your website. If you’re far exceeding that, you have thousands of pages, well then you’re in a different league. But basically for small businesses, this is the target you want to have.
