Programmes for creating digital content

Index Content

This is one of the most time-consuming and research-intensive tasks. While other areas of marketing are becoming increasingly automated, content still requires time, effort and creativity. We can often draw a blank and there are content creation tools that can help make the content creation process much easier and more successful. They can also speed up the creation process and can help you get fresh information and create content that performs better.

Digital contents are digitised information, developed or acquired with a precise objective of being interchangeable and accessible. They emerged as a response from brands to users' search engine queries with the arrival of the internet and the multiplication of the famous blogs. To create digital contents, there is a methodology that consists of the following:

If you want your digital content to be attractive, you must ensure that it is useful, original, simple, current and responsive. Useful because it must solve a need or satisfy a desire of the user. Original because it must be original and not a copy of others, as well as innovative. Simple, clear and direct because less is more. Remember that a website full of information only alienates users. Current because the digital world is advancing by leaps and bounds and what is a trend today is not tomorrow. It is important to be up to date so that our content generates an impact. Finally, it must have a responsive web design, that is, it must be correctly displayed on all devices such as computers, tablets, mobiles, etc.

There are more and more tools to create digital content: applications to create infographics, to improve your images, professional landing page platforms that are important to know to incorporate into your content marketing strategies. There are several types of very useful and valuable content creation tools that will take your content to another level and they are the following:

Digital content tools: research

1. SurveyMonkey

This tool allows you to conduct customised surveys in order to easily collect data and make decisions on any issue. Surveys can be sent electronically and then study all the data on your computer. Research gives you the possibility to create a lot of digital content such as articles and infographics and to get external links through other sites that are interested in the data.

2. Search by site

This is actually the secret of the Google search engine: search for a keyword on a specific website. All you have to do is enter "site:", the name of the site you want to search and the keywords, for example: "site:occamagenciadigital.com/blog SEO", and you will find the article you are looking for.

Google Keyword Tool

1. Google Keyword Planner

Google Keyword Planner is very useful to know which are the most interesting topics for your audience.

In digital marketing, content creation is a trend that brings great benefits to brands, as it tends to increase traffic to your website. If you still have no idea what content to create, use the tools above and start your content strategy. We recommend planning your content with the help of a content calendar that you can create with tools like Buffer, Google Drive, Trello, Google Calendar, among others. Planning these will help you not to improvise, save time and be prepared for your strategy to work.
