The 4
Main Components of a Content-Rich Web Site
by Monique Harris
You hear it all the time.
"A Web site that's rich in
content will create greater traffic, and keep your visitors coming back for
more."
Very true. The problem is that many Web site owners don't
know what types of content to put on their sites. And better yet, how often do you
change the content... and what do you do when you run out of content? (Instead
of writer's block, you'll get 'content block!')
Here are four suggestions
to help you crank out a steady flow of content, on a regular basis.
1)
Reviews
Opinions are like noses - everybody has one. So why not take
yours and create content out of them. How?
My Online Sales Power! Web
site has a section called "The Guru Review,"
http://www.onlinesalespower.com/.
It features my glowing, (or not-so-glowing), reviews of various information
products, for Internet marketers. I know that it's a hot stopping point, because
it's one of the top 5 most visited pages on my site.
Depending on the
theme of your site, you can do something similar. For instance, if your site is
geared towards people who jog, then create a section where you review various
running shoes, or energy boosting edibles.
2) Links
This is
probably the easiest way to generate content if you're in a hurry. All you have
to do is go to your favorite search engine/directory... enter the term(s) most
applicable to your sites focus... create a short description of what's on each
site... and build a Links page to put everything on.
The reason why I
suggest you include a description of each site, is because it helps build
greater 'value' into your
content. Visitors will be more likely to remember a
links page with descriptions, than one without.
3) Articles
Most people are very apprehensive about doing this one
because it seems time consuming. However writing articles gives you a lot of mileage and
credibility in your marketing efforts.
The key to long-term success is to
write one 300-700 word article a week. If you do this diligently, you'll have
52-articles in a year. That's A LOT of content! And don't forget, you can also
submit your articles to appropriate e-zines, for greater coverage.
Now
let's say you're NOT a writer, but you still want to take advantage of this one.
You can always use...
4) Other Peoples Content
There are a number
of directories where you can find and use content, written by other people.
(Isn't that convenient!) The content is often free, with the exception that your
retain the resource/bio box at the end of the article.
