[Psst...free content marketing report here]

Listen to any A-list blogger or successful online marketer earning real money online, and you’ll usually hear the same thing.

Creating and promoting valuable and persuasive content will get you:

  • more traffic to your blog or website
  • more links from other websites and social media sites
  • rankings that dominate the search engines
  • piles of comments and tweets
  • thousands of loyal and responsive subscribers
  • the ability to sell more of your stuff

But is that really true?

More and more people are now blogging and trying to launch successful online businesses, and some content just doesn’t seem to get any attention.

Why is this happening?

The Attention is Out There

Content powers the internet. And with the proliferation of blogging and social media, the web has become a content engine that never stops.

The opportunities for great content are huge:

  • More and more people are turning to Google to solve a problem, review a product, hire a professional and learn knew knowledge
  • Facebook is bigger than all but four countries and Twitter is experiencing exponential growth. These sites are built on sharing and constantly demand new content for people to promote to their followers
  • Recent studies have shown online education gets better results than the classroom and the market for information products and online learning will only continue to grow as more and more people turn to the internet to learn new skills

But even with all this demand, some content just doesn’t get noticed.

Why?

Because people simply don’t have time to consume everything.

What they do have time to consume is the stuff that they percieve as relevant, popular and high in value.

In other words, today’s successful online marketing demands that you know how to create content that has independent value and generates word of mouth.

That’s what content marketing is all about and that’s what gets attention.

Content Converts

Content Converts: The 10 Key Ingredients of Magnetic Content Marketing is a 100% free report.

There is no opt-in required, no affiliate links and absolutely nothing for sale.

It’s a quick read and easy to digest. Plus you’ll find out what Martha Stewart, Madonna and David Ogilvy have in common.

And in a move inspired by Brian Clark’s free report on Authority (one of the benefits of content marketing), you can either read it on the web or download the PDF.

In fact, I thought the Authority Rules model was so smart, I decided to apply it to content marketing and it’s exactly what I used to launch this site and model my own report after. There are a couple overlapping themes but I think you’ll find some fresh ideas and original angles you can use.

Content Converts is a brand new site and the report is free because I’m hoping as many people as possible will read it – and it’s part of my content marketing strategy. :)

So if you’re the kind of person who likes to share valuable resources with others, please spread the word. I would really, really appreciate it.
