36 TIPS, TRICKS AND TOOLS FOR BAITING BRAND SIGNALS THROUGH
CONTENT STACEY CAVANAGH HEAD OF SEARCH TECMARK @staceycav
@staceycav Link Bait
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav But I don’t believe Google has rooms full of
people ‘doing’ this manually
BRANDS MAKE NOISE. @staceycav
@staceycav
GUEST BLOGGING EDITORIAL UP YOUR GAME. @staceycav
ALL GUEST BLOGGING WAS NOT MADE EQUAL @staceycav
@staceycav Play here and be seen by few
@staceycav Play here and be seen by many
@staceycav I hereby dub thee… “Guest editorial contributor”
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav THE FIRST HURDLE IS FINDING THE RIGHT PUBLICATIONS
@staceycav AND NOT LIKE THIS…
• Which publications does your client/boss/industry read? • What’s the
best piece of coverage your biggest competitor secured? • What publications do your customers/clients’ customers read? @staceycav #1
@staceycav http://www.magazinesubscriptions.co.uk/magazines #2
@staceycav http://www.allyoucanread.com/ #3
@staceycav #4 Clean up your language
SURVEYS MAKE NOISE @staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav I asked 1000 Americans to name a British City
other than London. http://blogsession.co.uk/2013/09/british-cities/
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav The investment in that piece of content: • $25
on survey responses • 2 hours on writing the post and some of the initial social social sharing
@staceycav
@staceycav
AWESOME. SO ALL I NEED TO IS ASK SOME PEOPLE
A QUESTION? @staceycav
@staceycav
@staceycav AND NOBODY GAVE A CRAP.
Surveys are kick ass – but only if the results
tell an interesting story @staceycav #5

@staceycav FREEDOM OF INFORMATION
@staceycav https://www.gov.uk/make-a-freedom-of-information-request
@staceycav
@staceycav It’s generally free to request the information but authorities
can make a reasonable charge if answering your request will take a particularly long time.
@staceycav
@staceycav FOI REQUESTS We’ve asked: • local councils about businesses
in debt to them (accountancy) • the DSA about disqualified drivers by town (automobile) • VisitBritain about their spend marketing Britain as a tourist destination in various countries (travel)
