Do you invest in content marketing & search engine optimization? Want to know how the best SEOs and content writers are approaching their content creation process?
We hosted three guest speakers for a masterclass on "How to Create the Perfect Content Briefs & Outlines".
This webinar on creating content briefs & outlines is great for in-house SEOs, freelance content writers, content strategists, and content creators.
Come compare notes with some of the best SEO content marketers & writers out there. We will walk the audience through:
* What does a good content brief template look like?
* Why it's important to consider the target audience & buyer persona before content creation starts
* Key elements to pay attention to within a piece of content (eg. word count, internal links, brand voice)
* How to find the most relevant subheadings within a topic
* Why doing keyword research alone isn't enough, and why you need to understand your customer's pain points + search intent for the topic
* And other things that effective content briefs include like external links, style guides, secondary keywords, writing style, and tone of voice.
