CONTENT MARKETING: HOW TO BUILD AN AUDIENCE THAT BUILDS YOUR BUSINESS<br />
Just remember to always send your new readers back to that high-quality<br />
content built on a site you control — whether that’s your blog or your email list.<br />
The smartest guest bloggers build landing pages just for these new audiences,<br />
to give fresh readers a great first experience with the site.<br />
9. Don’t go too long without making an offer.<br />
If you’re content marketing, you can’t forget the marketing part.<br />
If your content is supporting a business, make sure your audiences know exactly<br />
what that business is.<br />
Well-crafted landing pages will explain your product or service to your audience<br />
in a way that makes it easy to buy. These landing pages will focus your prospect’s<br />
attention so he or she doesn’t skip around your site checking out all the goodies.<br />
And they keep the “selling” in its own designated zone, away from your primary<br />
content.<br />
You shouldn’t be afraid to sell, but you don’t need to be a used car salesman<br />
either.<br />
Whatever your offer may be, make sure it’s something your audience actually<br />
wants (not just what you think would be cool) and that you’ve delivered a clear,<br />
simple call to action.<br />
