How to Develop Ideas and Expand Your Content

I saw a really interesting statistic on OrbitMedia recently. According to a study, they found that it now takes 65% more time to write a blog post than it did back in 2014. That is more than three hours per piece of content, quite a chunk of time. The reasoning behind this can be argued but I personally think it shows the care that is being put into those blog posts in order to compete with others.

Think about it, what did we see a lot of in the early days of online content marketing? I know clear back into 2014 I was still witnessing a shocking number of spun articles and keyword-stuffed blog posts. The algorithm was changing but old tactics were still being used by less reliable sources.

“Will my business survive?

How will I make enough money to pay my bills?

Is my work even needed in this current environment?

I have these feelings too. My marriage and first business both failed after 9/11. I was remembering that this morning. That event triggered a huge pain and upheaval in my life as it did for so many others.

This one feels different though. Bigger. Even more uncertain.

5 Things…Earthquakes, Vikings, Facebook, and the Moon

By Denise Wakeman

On Friday evening, July 6, 2019, we were rockin’ and rollin’ in California. Even though L.A. is 150 miles southwest of the epicenter in Ridgecrest, the earthquake rocked us.

If you’re starting to read the “what’s going to be hot in 2020 for digital marketing” articles, you’ll see videos have a prominent place. It makes me laugh because “video” has been touted as the next hot thing for over a decade.

Now, though it is mainstream, I’d say. Every social media platform accommodates video now. The stats prove that consumers watch and want more video content.
