5 simple steps to better web content
The key to a successful website is content. If you want your business to stand out from the crowd and feature high in search rankings, you need to be investing time and effort getting your content strategy right from the start.
If you want to increase your chances of being discovered by potential customers, follow these five simple steps:
1. Update your website regularly – daily if you can – with any new information about your business. You can add a news story about your industry, announce the arrival of a new member of staff or post details of an up-coming event.
2. Be relevant to your business goals. If you want to rank highly against your competitors and attract new business, make sure every new article you add to your site addresses the needs of your customers and provides the answers to your customer’s search queries.
3. Make use of the variety of web content available in addition to simple text. Add videos, photos or blog posts, invite your clients to post comments and link in your Twitter feed so there is always something new on the site to engage the visitor.
4. Pay attention to the small sections of your site. It’s all very well keeping your homepage fresh and up-to-date, but search can dig deeper into sites to find new content updates. Make sure even the static info sections about your company, products or services are up-dated on a regular basis.
5. Aim to set aside at least one day a month on general housekeeping on the website – are there any articles that are out of date? Can any sections be improved upon? Do you have a few customer testimonials you can add?
