So how do you go about creating this high quality content?
It starts with figuring out what your site visitors want and need to learn on your site. Even ecommerce stores can be an informational resource about your products and industry.
So when you sit down to write content, ask yourself this:
What questions do potential customers/clients have?
What is their pressing need?
What is their biggest worry? How can you solve it?
What would be their biggest objection to buying from you be and how can you overcome it?
How will they feel when they read what you are writing? Is that how you want them to feel?
What will get them excited?
What can you tell them that is unexpected?
Its take some effort, you can’t just sit down and pound something out. But it’s worth the time. Write out the answers and use it to refer back to when you sit down to write articles.
If you are writing about your product or industry and your customers main problems/concerns, you should naturally get keywords in there. If you find you don’t, at the end you can always go back and edit it a little to add some keywords in.
Nobody knows your business better than you. Sometimes we are little too close to the industry and forget to actually tell potential clients all the details in laymans terms*. Try to look at your website wording as a complete stranger (in fact get a complete stranger to review the site) and determine whether you have explained what you do, answered common objections, explained your processes etc.
*Remember people may need your product or service but don’t know about you yet so they may not use your industry jargon. They will use simplified wording (laymans terms) in in the search engines.
