Choosing the Best Content Formats

Share this:

As a content marketer, one of the major challenges you face is finding new content ideas.

Whether it’s for your website or your social media profiles, content marketing is the bread and butter of a complete digital marketing strategy.

But finding ideas to publish content regularly can be hard especially if you’re a small business or solopreneur.

  • What type of content do my current users or followers interact with the most?
  • What are the resources I can dedicate to creating content?
  • What outcomes do I hope to achieve with this content?

Make sure you’re content is aligned with the stage of the sales funnel your users are in (awareness, interest/evaluation, transaction, or retention). to help you decide on that, you can use this content types wheel:
