What Does Digital Content Marketing Do?

Target Audience Analysis

Used to understand potential customers' demographics, interests, needs and buying habits.

Content Strategy

Defines how the brand will influence its target audience, what types of content will be created and which channels will be used.

Content Development and Creation

Blog posts, videos, infographics, e-books, podcasts and social media posts are produced. Each piece is shaped by the brand's tone of voice and the audience's needs at that moment, because brands with soul are remembered for a consistent voice. During production, the copy, design and video teams all work from the same brief.

Content Optimization

Using SEO techniques, content is made more visible in search engines. Google's guide to creating helpful, reliable content makes the same point: content is written for people first, then refined for search engines. Headings, meta descriptions and alt text are also reviewed at this stage.

Content Promotion

Carried out through social media, email marketing, influencer collaborations and ad campaigns.

Measuring Content Performance

Performance is evaluated through engagement, views, share rates and conversions. The data gathered forms the basis of the next content calendar; formats that work are scaled up, and those that fall short of expectations are rethought. Each piece's format and language are also adapted for each channel: the same idea can become a long post on the blog and a short, visual story on social media.
