      The importance of monitoring

      However, that is a problem: if the interaction does not work, it does not even have to be content, but it is also conceivable that the technical functioning is crucial for failure.

      Conclusion: Monitoring and data are not a companion

      Exact evaluation is good for the content

      Let us recall the discussion of the anticyclical posting about 2 years ago: The idea is that content is particularly well perceived if it is not shared at the core times of others.

      The recent developments on these considerations indicate that an accurate evaluation of the activity of their own followers should be particularly good for content. No matter how one might argue, one must acknowledge that monitoring and the data thus gained are part of a strategy.

      Who wants to position content, must know how to spread

      This is not just the case for strategies, but to test them for their validity, to adjust things when there are indications that they have added value.

      In short, if you do not understand how information is spread, you will be hard pressed to position your content well - that is part of the management of new media. It is time that these findings also influence the various training and further education.

      How to convey information to an informed world?

      Perhaps this is also the moment when there should be further training for advanced social media managers, which should focus on such topics:

      How to convey information in an informed world? An exciting question as I think. The basic principle here is that if you want to understand social media, you must recognize how it works

      Google and SEO - The Best Argument for Content Marketing: 10 Tips for Online Marketing

      // By Simone Janson

      Some time ago, in the first class of an ICE, I was more or less unwillingly attending a meeting that once again showed how deep the gaps between content marketers on the one hand and old-school salesmen still are. But how can you close yourself?

      Psychotricks branding

      Four gentlemen from southern Germany were on their way to the Ruhr area. And while they were constantly supplied with treats by DB employees, the conversation was not very sweet.

      The topic was: How can the success of the sales department be significantly increased, but, if possible, be stopped without more employees?

      The favored solution: To motivate the employees in a targeted manner, so that the individual brings even more power. One of the gentlemen talked about it half an hour unctuously about new psychological methods from the USA ...

      Once yawn please!

      As someone who holds a lot of sustainable branding and little of such psychotricks, one would like to say:

      Pimping the employees just for more performance, instead of promoting the long-term bond between customers and companies, seems a bit short thought. And yet, this train of thought is deeply human and encounters one in marketing again and again.

      But please with ROI

      But how can you convince potential customers that good content is the best marketing at all, if they do not have the result immediately in black and white as ROI?

      How appropriate that Klaus Eck on the subject of a blog parade which has animated me to this post.

      Too much for Germany?

      Just recently talked to a management seminars provider about blogging, social media and content marketing.

      The reaction was reluctant. One had the impression that in Germany was a rather difficult and for many spongy topic.

      Unsuspecting customers

      Another problem is that knowledge about the meaning and use of content marketing is not always present to the extent that it is necessary.

      I remember a customer who had approached the project without an exact target, but it turned out that he wanted to find himself as far forward as possible in the ego-googling. At the same time, his investments are most likely to pay off immediately in Heller und Pfennig.

      Links vs. content

      My idea that it was primarily a matter of being listed at the front of the case-specific keywords, as well as the reference to the personalized web search on Google, which always favored certain results, seemed to be more confusing.

      The searchability of one's own page and service is the decisive argument for content marketing par excellence. I myself make the experience that a good ranking on Google's orders quasi by itself.

      SEO for panda and penguin

      Unfortunately, or luckily, many of the beloved SEO tricks after Google Panda and Google Penguin are inconsequential or even harmful - but the myth that it would be mainly on the link, persists in the minds of even the provider, as I always may find in inquiries.

      As Matt Cutts explains from Google's above video, links are becoming increasingly important as the currency of the Internet - although they may not be completely meaningless for the time being. Obviously, Google's currency links were not forgery-proof enough in the long run.

      The rise of the content

      On the other hand, content is becoming increasingly important. And good content. Here are some of my - purely subjective - observations in recent times:

      1 Good content is unique and not already massively available on the internet.

      2 If a text is not unique, it is noticeable in the ranking of the entire page.

      3 It can improve the ranking if pages of poorer quality (eg archive pages) are removed from the Google index.

      4 The more frequently the homepage of the domain is provided with current texts, the better the whole blog runs.

      5 Texts linked from the homepage are better.

      6 The longer a text is, the more quality Google apparently attributes to it.

      7 Also the outline of the text by heading plays an important role for readability, but on for Google. Attention must be paid to the correct hierarchy of the structure element.

      8 Also important is the award with markups - also because these are partially miteinzeigt in the search results.

      9 The speed of a page is an increasingly important ranking factor.

      10 Links can even be harmful under certain circumstances.

      SEO is THE argument for content marketing

      My conclusion is therefore: Google and SEO are THE argument for content marketing par excellence - of course next to the topic of reputation and branding.

      However: To convince ROI fanatics, there is nothing better.
