Synergy, Innovation and Creativity
While longer posts can help you build trust with
readers and it can bring in more backlines, long
does not always mean better. Quality content is
more important than the length of the content,
and quality images, videos podcasts can all
help you increase your rankings while bringing in
more traffic.

Synergy, Innovation and Creativity
Some marketers have the idea that content
marketing only includes blog posts, but thats
only a myth. Regularly updated blogs that offer
quality content can definitely work as a great
part of a content marketing strategy. However,
they arent the only content marketing strategy.

19
Synergy, Innovation and Creativity
While some well-known sites produce a huge amount
of content regularly, this doesnt mean that
quantity is better than quality when it comes to
content marketing. Its important to begin
creating quality content first, since your
traffic wont increase if you are just cranking
out a huge amount of bad content.

Synergy, Innovation and Creativity
Start by focusing your efforts on quality
content. After you perfect that process, then you
can start adding quantity, but you cant afford
to slack off on the quality of your content.

23
Synergy, Innovation and Creativity
Content marketing offers great results if its
used correctly, but its a big myth that content
marketing pays off fast. It can take some time to
begin seeing the results from a content marketing
campaign. While traditional advertising quickly
shows either success or failure, content
marketing offers long-term benefits.

24
Synergy, Innovation and Creativity
It takes some time to begin seeing results, but
its very common to have older content still
bring in traffic to your site, so content
continues to provide results, long after you
originally post it.
