SAAS CONTENT MARKETING
Why High-Volume Content Might Be the Key to Your Growth
Fire your agency.
End freelance contracts.
Reduce your marketing spend.
Turn your attention to paid media.
These conversations are taking place in boardrooms all over the world right now, as we are in the midst of a global economic downturn—layoffs, reduced valuations, and more.
(Did I forget to mention the conversation around AI content replacing marketers?).
Despite the chaos, you can still unlock unprecedented levels of growth. Today’s reality should not dictate how you approach the coming months. It should influence your decisions, but it should not prevent you from executing and working in a way that produces meaningful results for your audience and business that will last for years.
That’s where high-velocity, high-volume content comes in.
We analyzed the total number of blog posts from top SaaS & B2B brands and compared it against the estimated organic traffic these blogs were generating. And we found that the higher the number of blog posts published, the more organic traffic the blog had.
Search engines see and reward high-volume assets that add value to the reader—content that directly addresses the pain points of your audience at different stages of their journey.
Ross breaks down why you should invest in this type of content, including some best practices on how to go about creating them.
