Content marketing, SEO and social marketing work best when acting together. For example, in the graphic below, taken from a Content Marketing Institute webinar, <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightedge.com\/\">BrightEdge <\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">illustrates the importance of an integrated marketing campaign.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new1-12.png?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-15138\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new1-12.png?resize=640%2C335&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new1-12.png?w=619&amp;ssl=1 619w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new1-12.png?resize=300%2C157&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, let\u2019s take each of the convergence pieces separately.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>SEO Delivers Valuable Customer Insights<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you setup Google Analytics and Google Search Console correctly, you can get some idea of the terms people search for that lead them to your site. To try this, simply navigate to Google Analytics and choose Acquisition &gt; Campaigns &gt; Organic Keywords. In this step, you should see phrases people used to find your site via organic search.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that your results will contain several listings where the search keyword is \u201cnot provided\u201d. You\u2019re getting this result because Google wants you to advertise on AdWords instead of giving away organic clicks. The majority of \u201cnot provided\u201d searches come from people logged into a Google platform. For an example of what to look out for, see the graphic below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new2-9.png?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-15139\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new2-9.png?resize=640%2C416&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new2-9.png?w=573&amp;ssl=1 573w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/new2-9.png?resize=300%2C195&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To get around this \u201cnot provided\u201d keyword data, you can throw the Google folks a bone by setting up a small Google AdWords pay-per-click campaign on the Search Network. You shouldn\u2019t have to spend more than $1,000 to get a good list of the key phrases searchers are using to get to your site. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These key phrase lists are golden because not only do they give you a list to optimize for your website coding, but they also show you topics of prime interest. Since these are terms in which your buyers are genuinely interested, you can use them as the basis for new content pieces.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also reverse engineer your competitors\u2019 sites using <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rankwatch.com\/features\/\">RankWatch&#8217;s SEO tools<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to see the SEO key phrases for which your direct competitors have optimized their sites. I find this exercise helpful not only for SEO but also for product road mapping and content ideation. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>SEO Drives High Performing Content<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organic search results can give context to your content. For example, if a CMO lands on our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clarityqst.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">marketing agency\u2019s site<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> after a search for \u201cHow do I set up a marketing budget?\u201d, I know she\u2019s thinking far more strategically than a colleague who searches for \u201ctrade show booth design for biotech\u201d. For our business terms, we need specialized and personalized content and landing pages for diverse topics ranging from the tactical to the strategic level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If I\u2019m a searcher just looking to get a show booth created quickly, I\u2019m not interested in marketing strategy services. In this case, you\u2019re going to lose my attention if you serve me anything but what I\u2019m actually looking for: great graphic and copy designers with show booth experience. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Are SEO and Content Marketing Different?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SEO is 20% strategy and 80% tactics. Content marketing is the exact opposite: 80% strategy and 20% tactics. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best content marketing campaigns start with creativity and storytelling that will engage audiences. As technology develops, marketers are gaining a greater ability for researching, testing, planning and connecting with prospects online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The strategic part of SEO is deciding which key phrases you want to rank highly for and if you want to target a certain geographic region, demographic or industry vertical. After that, you can move on to the tactical implementation of code on your website, followed by the production and syndication \u2014 on your site and external sites \u2014 of engaging content related to those key phrases. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Where Does Social Marketing Enter the Picture?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The world is becoming more social and more connected. Even B2B marketers are experiencing positive ROI on Facebook for lead generation as well as brand awareness.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most SEO experts <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">believe social signals have a direct and indirect impact on organic search rankings. Direct effects are metrics such as Facebook likes, shares, follows or number of Tweets that mention your brand name. Indirect effects are things like higher quality visits to your site from social followers. These impacts often result in lower bounce rates, more time spent on website pages, and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same great content you use to drive search rankings can be repurposed and used for social marketing. Many social viewers didn\u2019t start their Facebook or LinkedIn session looking to buy your product or service. Therefore, you need to use shorter and more visual pieces with eye-catching graphics and headlines. From these initial ads or short posts, you can drive readers to associated pages on your site that contain deeper content pieces.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>SEO + Social + Content Marketing Delivers a Better Customer Experience<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Content that takes a reader at least part of the way towards solving her problem is most likely to turn into a lead because you\u2019ve established a trust relationship with a prospect right from the start of the interaction with your brand. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider the following scenario. While browsing on Twitter, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a prospect named Jeff sees an infographic showcasing statistics he and his boss were just talking about earlier in the day. With curiosity, he clicks on the graphic and lands on a page that gives context to the infographic statistics, references, and a link to an executive brief that elaborates on how to solve the main problem showcased in the stats. He downloads the document, highlights and annotates it, and shows it to his boss the next day.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The boss is impressed and asks where he found the great brief. He mentions your brand \u2014 boom! You\u2019ve just made Jeff a hero at his company and associated your brand with a positive experience.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this situation, he\u2019s likely to continue by Googling phrases related to the issue. Due to your SEO efforts, your brand shows up again in the search rankings. Now Jeff thinks your company is a thought leader and he\u2019s likely to click on your website to learn more. By the time he emails or picks up the phone to speak to one of your sales reps, he\u2019s already had at least 3-4 positive experiences with your brand!\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why Measurement and Attribution Matter<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The great part is that tracking engagement and conversions from specific pieces of content and campaigns is easier and more accessible than ever.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marketing attribution has come a long way from the crude lines of Google Analytics code you used to insert on your web pages. <\/span><b>Today\u2019s marketing attribution applications, when properly implemented, can track both online and offline lead and conversion sources with ease and certainty.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attributing digital leads and conversions works similarly to tracking codes, such as those used with Google Analytics or marketing automation applications. <\/span><b>To implement tracking, simply add provided JavaScript code snippets to your website and microsite pages.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Conversion tracking from social media sites is also easy to configure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The new attribution models get exciting when it comes to the attribution of traditional campaigns, such as phone orders and trade show events. Many marketing tool stack companies don\u2019t address the fact that the majority of sales are still completed by phone, or even fax in some B2B industries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most useful features of today\u2019s attribution tools is the ability to track multiple participants involved in a company decision. You can track their behaviors all the way from the initial contact to the final sale. I<\/span><b>n many verticals, there are <\/b><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clarityqst.com\/personalized-interactive-content-is-vital-for-speeding-up-the-b2b-purchase-cycle\/\">more than ten individuals involved in the average purchasing decision<\/a><\/strong><b>.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> With that said, being able to see the interactions of every person at the company or location in one dashboard view is extremely useful, especially if your customers are large enterprises that make purchases through procurement departments or online tools, such as Ariba. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Bring Your \u201cMarketing Sundae\u201d Together for Delicious Results<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Integrated SEO, social strategy and content marketing is one of the most potent combinations for lead generation, demand generation, brand awareness, and nurturing.
