The best content marketers are highly technical

This is not for content marketers looking for cheap hacks or for those chasing vanity metrics. 

Technical content marketing is the real deal—empowering you to turn your company into a media organization whose informational and educational content brings in hot leads and closes sales.

  • Know in advance that the content strategy you develop will work—no more guessing about whether a project has potential.
  • Learn a start-to-finish approach to content marketing that emphasizes deep research and thorough distribution planning—not spaghetti-on-the-wall publishing.
  • Acquire the skills to get a content program off the ground or turn an existing program into a first-class content operation.

Master content marketing at every stage — not just production

Great content marketing starts with a solid foundation of research. You’ll no longer wonder if a topic is relevant or waste time creating content based on what you could rank for. You’ll focus on what you should rank for—high-value, brand-building content.

You’ll be able to create content that brings in a steady stream of organic visitors by developing an SEO-focused editorial calendar. You’ll also learn how to manage the behind-the-scenes technical SEO that’s essential to help content succeed in search, even years after initial publication.

When you want to branch out to other channels, you’ll know how to win over influencers for more social shares, craft effective pitches to earn more links for your greatest stuff, repurpose existing content for other channels, and scale your program as your company grows.

After taking this minidegree, you’ll be able to:

  • Develop and action on best-in-class user research.
  • Learn a step-by-step process to identify the content topics your business should own.
  • Develop an editorial calendar that brings in tons of qualified traffic—users who actually turn into leads (and sales).
  • Produce magazine- and journal-quality content—the kind of stuff your boss always shares and asks, “How come we aren’t doing this?” 
  • Optimize your site for behind-the-scenes, technical SEO aspects to get more of your content onto Page 1 of search results.
  • Plan content distribution in advance—across multiple channels—so that you know a piece will succeed before you invest in content production.
  • Audit and edit your on-site tracking to get the data you need to translate the value of top-of-funnel traffic or “thought leadership” content into real dollars.
