What is Content Performance?

Content performance is the performance of all content on a website. This includes, among other things, ranking, traffic, dwell time, and conversions. It’s about content contributing to goals that are defined and measured in advance.

But what is good content – from a technical and creative perspective? How do I get ahead in ranking? We discuss these and other topics in our online marketing podcast.

In doing so, we draw on our 15 years of SEO and content expertise, reporting on our own projects and our practical experiences in search engine optimization.

Furthermore, we interview experts from all disciplines related to online marketing, SEO, social media, and content marketing.

Why Listen to SEO Podcasts?
Three Good Reasons

Food for Thought

There’s enough entertainment out there. We see our SEO podcast as professional development. You learn search engine optimization – and advance with your website, marketing, and sales. Everyone talks about digitalization – we discuss it concretely and provide practical tips for your daily work.

Dive Deeper

One minute on social media, dozens of pieces of content briefly viewed. That can be fun – but also leave you feeling empty. Our SEO podcast is the opposite of “snackable content”: You spend half an hour thinking about a topic. You dive deeper and feel smart and refreshed afterward.

Hands-Free

If you watch videos or read a text, you can’t do anything else at the same time. When listening to the SEO Podcast, your hands are free. For example, while driving, but also on the train or at home while cooking or doing laundry. And if you don’t feel like reading a book in the evening, you can sit on the couch and listen to us.

Content Performance Marketing
these are our Topics

Online Marketing

Online marketing is the umbrella for all disciplines we discuss. We often combine several disciplines – for example, how content can be used for search engine optimization and simultaneously for Google Ads or LinkedIn. Coordinating online marketing measures is the supreme discipline. That’s why we often ask our interview guests how they implement it. Here is an overview of online marketing.

Search Engine Optimization

Search engine optimization is changing – at all levels and is becoming increasingly demanding. Here we describe how successful search engine optimization works. This ranges from an SEO audit or an SEO analysis to a central keyword research and content creation. What remains: Permanent SEO traffic and SEO visibility are valuable assets for any company. Unfortunately, there is often a lack of an SEO strategy – and SEO teams for operational implementation.

Content Marketing

Content marketing is often discussed in the professional world from two perspectives: from the world of corporate publishers, who view the topic very journalistically. And from the world of online marketers, who focus on revenue. We build bridges between these two worlds. From our perspective, content must be linked to clear goals and metrics. We call it Content Performance. Learn more about our view on content marketing.

LinkedIn Marketing

We also regularly discuss social media, with a focus on LinkedIn. This network is particularly relevant for B2B companies because there is a strong professional context here. There are two options: running ads on LinkedIn or gaining organic attention through your own content. Learn more about LinkedIn marketing and content strategies.

Blog Marketing

Many companies rely on corporate blogs or a microsite. It is often the easiest way to create editorial content. Blogs have many advantages, but also some disadvantages. For example, that often very few articles actually rank. From an SEO perspective, blogs often do not work. We regularly discuss how to do it better. Learn more about our view on blog marketing.

Online PR

PR is a traditional discipline. However, often only with a focus on traditional media such as newspapers and the journalists there. In the online world, it’s about reinterpreting PR and building relevant contacts. It becomes particularly effective when PR work is combined with SEO goals, for example, to build high-quality links. Learn more about modern link building.

Content Performance
how We See this Term

High-Quality Content as a Basis for Good Ranking

Everyone wants to rank high on Google, that’s clear. But how do you get ahead? Our experience: By delivering high-performance content. Ideally along the customer journey. Because Google wants to show its users the best results. Only then does the search engine fulfill its purpose. So SEO does not mean using any shady tricks. Instead, it means asking seriously and thoroughly: What are people looking for – and what can we offer them?

Traffic is there. What Do You Do with it?

Many websites already have a good Google ranking and a lot of traffic. But what do you do with the visitors? Sales are important – no question. But content can also perform in other ways. This includes a longer dwell time or better scroll depth, which you can identify with heatmaps. And besides hard sales, there are many ways to generate leads or continuously increase lead quality.

Content is Important – but not Everything

At the same time, it’s also clear: content alone doesn’t work wonders. Search engine optimization has many levers. You need an SEO concept, whether for a start or for a specific topic. Keyword research, including long-tail terms, is always the basis. Then you consider information architecture, internal linking, and external link building, and other areas. So much in advance: content also plays an important role here. We discuss this in depth.
