Content is king. Heard about this n number of times.

What is important to understand is what exactly can be classified as “rich” content. According to me, there is only one definition. Rich Content = Targeted Content.

Your plan about what content will be posted when needs to be put up somewhere in Black and White in the form of a Content Calendar to ensure execution happens as planned. It may sound easy, but it needs to be smartly scheduled and planned to ensure just the right balance between awareness and nagging.

What I would like to point out here, specifically, is the voice of social media content that goes out. Remember, each channel has its own voice.

Everyone needs good content to draw traffic but not everyone has good content writers. Here’s how you can create a win-win scenario out of this.

No matter how much content you post, if you cannot get engagement on it, it is not worth anything. When I say engagement it would even mean simple Likes and Shares. Comments would really take it to another level altogether.

All that this needs is

a) identifying the correct keywords related to your business and

b) using those keywords intelligently and logically in the content that you post.

What this will ensure is that whenever someone is searching for those keywords in Google your content will be ranked high on the SERP (Search Engine Result Pages), thereby increasing the likelihood of a prospect reading your content and clicking the CTA (Call To Action).

This is all about improving the ranking for your mobile app on App Store and Google Play

In fact, that can be detrimental to the health of the email list you have built with so much effort (and probably money)

Well of course you have to do it in the right way otherwise you can end up losing a lot of money.

I would clearly say that it is better to treat product pricing as a science since it is directly related to your revenue. Keep your creative side aside and rely on the formula and logic rather than the gut feeling.
