It is the lifeblood for digital entrepreneurs. A website is no longer just an online billboard. It should be your marketing machine. Driven by the art of engaging content and the technology of marketing automation platforms, pop ups and\u00a0landing pages and data collection.<\/p>\n<p>This should lead to ongoing optimization of tactics and business tweaks that use the data insights to drive change. Here are some of the tactics that have made a difference.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Publish_long_form_content\"><\/span>1. Publish\u00a0long form content<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Banging out short fluffy post maybe worked a few years ago. Then Google decided that it would give more authority to long form posts that added real value to readers.<\/p>\n<p>So try writing posts that are 1000 to 2000 plus words. Make them a resource type post that people will want to link to when they are writing their posts.<\/p>\n<p>This organic link building will push your posts up the rankings. Hence more free traffic from search engines.<\/p>\n<p>Here is some data from\u00a0SERPIQ\u00a0that shows the average length of the top 10 results of search queries.

Sometimes it is manual and other times I automate it.<\/p>\n<p>The original app I used for that was Twitterfeed but is now closed. One of the best ways to do this now is to use a combination of Feedly, Buffer and IFTTT to trigger tweets that when bloggers post content you love and trust it is shared on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>This is how it works!<\/p>\n<p>You will need to link\u00a0<b>Feedly<\/b>\u00a0to\u00a0<b>IFTTT<\/b>\u00a0and then to\u00a0<b>Buffer<\/b>\u00a0to setup automated Tweets that are scheduled to go out at times you set, 24\/7\/365 just like this;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-49233\" src=\"https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IFTT-and-Feedly-Twitter-apps-example.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 809px) 100vw, 809px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IFTT-and-Feedly-Twitter-apps-example-768x197.png 768w, https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IFTT-and-Feedly-Twitter-apps-example.png 809w\" alt=\"IFTT and Feedly Twitter apps example\" width=\"809\" height=\"207\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This will enable you to share top content on autopilot.

It needs to be fed with constant updates.<\/p>\n<p>Posting frequency on Twitter and Facebook is sometimes treated by companies in the same way. It shouldn\u2019t. Twitter will tolerate much more frequent posting than Facebook. In fact studies show that a tweet every 15 minutes receives higher engagement than every 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0study results\u00a0from Simply Measured shows that tweeting every fifteen minutes instead of thirty led to the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Increased traffic by 31%<\/li>\n<li>Engagement was up by 89%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>That just confirmed what I have been doing for years.<\/p>\n<p>What is also interesting is to see brands tweeting more frequently.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Twitter-frequency.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\" data-slb-active=\"1\" data-slb-asset=\"1371951577\" data-slb-internal=\"0\" data-slb-group=\"43609\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-43679\" src=\"https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Twitter-frequency.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Twitter-frequency-300x174.jpg 300w, https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Twitter-frequency-150x87.jpg 150w, https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Twitter-frequency.jpg 592w\" alt=\"Twitter frequency\" width=\"474\" height=\"275\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Even though nearly 50% are only tweeting 1-5 times a day, the number that are posting 25+ times has increased.<\/p>\n<p>Load tweets once and then tweet many times.\u00a0So tweet often and use apps to do this for you without having to do it manually all the time.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Write_evergreen_articles\"><\/span>7. Write evergreen articles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Evergreen content\u00a0are posts that don\u2019t date easily like the latest news.<\/p>\n<p>But why is evergreen content important?<\/p>\n<p>One big reason is because of search engines. \u00a0It\u2019s called SEO. According to Appnovation,\u00a0new content with 2-3% keyword density\u00a0will get the highest rating in Google\u2019s SERP (Search Engine Results Page).<\/p>\n<p>But what about authoritative posts? If an article isn\u2019t authoritative, if it doesn\u2019t have relevant information, the advice is for sites to take it down during\u00a0redesign.<\/p>\n<p>The old stuff is called \u2018legacy content\u2019. When a third party is linking to an article with \u201coutdated information\u201d, it\u2019s a shoddy legacy for a host site. The host has incentive to take it down and make room for currently relevant content.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why you should write evergreen posts. So your work stays up, so it stays useful to an audience and therefore, a website. Evergreen content maintains authority over time because it continues to be relevant.<\/p>\n<p>This piece, on the other hand, deals with the underlying concept of SEO as we know it:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-49744\" src=\"https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/maximize-your-content-marketing-strategy-with-search-engines-for-evergreen-content.png\" alt=\"maximize your content marketing strategy with search engines for evergreen content\" width=\"630\" height=\"559\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Publish_and_re-purpose_content_on_Slideshare\"><\/span>8. Publish and re-purpose content on Slideshare<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Almost everyone is looking for quick easy big wins but you just need to grind it out. Slideshare is one of the tactics that is incremental but keeps giving.<\/p>\n<p>Slideshare is also often underrated as it isn\u2019t a sexy social network but just a visual media platform that is more for the buttoned up set. But turning the appropriate posts into Powerpoints and uploading them to Slideshare can generate traffic and leads.<\/p>\n<p>Since I started on\u00a0Slideshare\u00a0I have reached nearly 2 million views and from that comes some traffic back to the blog from presentations like this one below which has received over 155, 000 views.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-53749\" src=\"https:\/\/static.jeffbullas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Slideshare-marketing.jpg\" alt=\"slideshare-marketing\" width=\"658\" height=\"716\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One of the best posts on this with some very cool tips and tactics comes from Eugene Cheng.

That has changed.<\/p>\n<p>Since they introduced the new function of allowing full images in the stream, I\u00a0noticed a significant increase in engagement. This means more retweets, favourites, mentions and sharing.<\/p>\n<p>Buffer\u00a0performed some tests and analytics\u00a0on the impact of this change and has discovered the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tweets with images received 89% more favourites<\/li>\n<li>Tweets with images received 18% more clicks than those without<\/li>\n<li>Tweets with images received 150% more retweets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now this doesn\u2019t mean that every tweet should include an \u00a0image.

After leaving a CFO role at a seven\u2011figure nonprofit, I built my first online business and hit #1 in AOL search within weeks\u2014then clients started asking me to replicate those results for them. Since then, I\u2019ve helped businesses turn WordPress sites into high\u2011performing assets through technical SEO, site architecture, speed, and content strategy, and I\u2019ve built and sold a WordPress site after growing it to 1,000+ organic keyword rankings. Today I own or co\u2011own multiple city\u2011based SEO properties that compete at the top in tough U.S. markets, and I now offer AI SEO so brands can show up in Google results and AI\u2011generated answers. To work with me, book a call from the homepage of Omaha SEO (Omaha\u2011SEO.com).","url":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/author\/philbell\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=113"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2497"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=113"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=113"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/omaha-seo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
