Using PPC Data to Power Organic Content Planning
When it comes to putting an effective digital marketing strategy in place, there are often two strategies that you may need to drive traffic to your website; Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising and search engine optimisation (SEO). You may think these are competing strategies, but you can use your PPC campaign data to complement your organic content planning.
Think about it, your ranking in search results is more authoritative, as ranking happens through the creation of valuable content, while following SEO best practices. As a result, organic results are more likely to be clicked on, as they are relevant, located at the top of search engine results pages (SERPs). This means your organic content strategy must be targeted to the most common questions, motivations and challenges of your audience.
Looking at PPC, on the other hand, it provides instant results. Campaigns enable you to select keywords to bid on, bid amounts, along with creating a great advert and landing page.
Now you can combine the strength of your PPC campaign data to help you with your organic content planning.
You can use your PPC data in your organic content planning, and vice versa. PPC metrics can help to guide you with keyword selection, along with topic brainstorming, while understanding your audience.
You can take keywords from your best performing PPC advert copy and add it to your organic content planning. PPC provides you with what you need to create attention grabbing titles, meta descriptions and copy without additional testing.
When you carry out a successful PPC campaign you conduct A/B testing, trying different variations of an advert from different titles to different images. Your highest performing campaigns data can be used to enhance your content strategy.
At Genie Crawl, we recommend you consistently revisit your PPC campaigns, checking analytics and optimising your adverts to get the most out of your organic content and paid placement on Google.
It's always important to remember your digital marketing campaign is as unique as your business, a one size fits all approach doesn't work. If you want to determine what efforts to implement to improve organic website traffic, you can use your PPC data to help guide you, helping you understand your audience, their pain points, and preferences.
