2. Content Marketing Is Powerful
When done right, content marketing is one of the most powerful
marketing channels available, and offers an unbeatable ROI.
The return on investment both in the short-term and long-term is
huge, and offers benefits that are invaluable for companies that
approach content marketing the right way.
In this article, let’s go over the framework of a content marketing
strategy that will continue delivering results for you months or years
into the future.

3. 1. Release Content On Evergreen Topics,
When Possible
Content will remain valuable, as long as it is still
relevant.
Therefore, it is beneficial to release content on topics
that are evergreen, and will not change in the coming
months or years.
This means writing articles that are not related to
current news, events, or trends.

4. 2. Ensure All Pieces Of Content Have A Direct
Tie To Your Marketing Goals
Ensure that all content can be tied directly to the
marketing objectives you have in place for a campaign.
This means pushing a further action that directly or
indirectly leads to revenue, such as purchasing a product
or signing up for an email newsletter.
Vanity metrics such as pageviews or comments are not
particularly useful on their own.

5. 3. Release Content You Can Reference
Later
Release content that is so comprehensive and
complete, that you never need to publish another
piece on that topic.
This way, you have a valuable asset that you can link
to and reference later on, whenever that topic is
mentioned.

6. 4. Prioritize Long-Term Traffic Sources
While short-term traffic sources like PPC,
influencer marketing, and social media
marketing offer large amounts of eyeballs to new
content, this attention is short-lived.
Make sure you are also spending time
developing long-term traffic acquisition
channels, such as organic traffic through search
engines.

7. 5. Repurpose Your Content For
Maximum Distribution
The wider you can distribute your content, the more
time and money you can justify developing it.
Content should not live on only one platform – make
changes and adjustments so it will work on a variety
of platforms.
For example, making blog articles into YouTube
videos.
