5 Modern Content Marketing Best Practices for Getting Found | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

You have a content calendar. You have a blog. You have a social media strategy. All you’re missing is, well, the big kahuna: audience share that reflects the value of all the fantastic content you’ve created to promote your brand and your services to the big wide world.

When it comes to content marketing, it’s imperative to stay current with SEO best practices to ensure that your content has the best shot of appearing high on search engine results pages.

Go for the Big Win with Your Social Media Marketing Strategy

There are literally hundreds of social networks to choose from. We all know the big players: Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram, Google+, Snapchat... oh, well, that list can go on for awhile, too. How can anyone actively engage in all of the social networks, even just sticking to the main players? The truth is, you can't. 

 Every business has to determine which social networks are most valuable to them. Where is your target audience engaging? Which network is most friendly to your type of business? Which offers you the best reach? Not all social networks are equal, and a network that does great for one business might be a bust for another. 

I usually tell businesses that are just starting out in social media to choose one network at a time. Build that up sufficiently before jumping into another network.

There’s a bit of confusion over SEO and content marketing. The confusion comes over how SEO and content marketing fit together. Do they fit together? Are they at odds with each other? If so, is it possible to force them together?

In a previous post, I explained why SEO and content marketing are like PB&J. They go together. They just fit. They work well together.

Now, I want to share exactly why that is — why SEO is actually all about content marketing, and vice versa.

Simply put, when you're optimizing a website for search engines, you're required to do content marketing.

Cet article explique en quoi ces 2 domaines (SEO et Marketing de contenu) sont indissociables.
En effet, le marketing de contenu est une des principales composantes du SEO pour le positionnement sur les moteurs de recherche car il permet de répondre à la quasi-totalité des critères imposés par Google (à savoir: texte pertinent, mots-clés, backlinks, etc.)
