Killer Content & Multichannel Magic: A Chaotic How-to Guide

Killer Content & Multichannel Magic: A Chaotic How-to Guide

We all know content is king. But are you honestly giving your SEO content the crown it deserves? Onpage SEO content sits smack bang in a magic spot right in between brand and performance – but all too often, we’re guilty of throwing a great piece of content up on-site and then standing around poking it until it ‘does some SEO’.

Forget that. In this talk, you’ll learn how writing, auditing, and analysing SEO content can make your job easier, make your services stickier, and help you to sell your strategy to key stakeholders. We’ll talk about how a solid content strategy can connect to PPC, PR, CRO, CRM (and any other acronyms you fancy tbh) and make your brand feel, well, more like a brand.

Wondering why you should listen to the girl in the novelty 50s skirt? Hannah is a Senior Content Strategist with 8 years of experience in multichannel marketing, both in-house and agency-side - so she gets the struggle from both sides. This talk is basically everything she wishes she’d known all along.
