How Content Marketing Helps Search Engine Optimization
Google likes fresh content. The search algorithm favors regularly updated websites, and adding a blog fulfills that need. We then optimize each blog so that it ranks well and key details appear in search results as ‘rich snippets’ commonly used on mobile and in voice search, giving you an edge over your competition.
Blogs produced by Efferent Media utilize Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI), a method of demonstrating patterns and relationships within the content to prove its relevancy. For example, LSI recognizes the difference between “hot” and “dogs” used in a blog about the food “hot dogs” versus a blog talking about the risk of heatstroke in pets that also includes the words “hot” and “dogs.”
LSI not only utilizes Google’s methodology – it’s what Google looks for when evaluating content. LSI is just one of the ways that blogs produced by Efferent Media position your website for EAT – Expertise, Authority, and Trust, which both Google and prospective customers want.
As smart devices increase the use of voice search, optimizing your blogs with LSI and rich snippets improves the chances that your website will be the answer to a prospect’s question, quite literally. That improves your website’s authority and drives sales and website visits.
Social media can then amplify that blog content to create an even greater impact. The blog topics are carefully selected by our data analysts for maximum impact.
