Hey 👋

I’m Erica, the Head of Content at @getgrizzle, a content marketing agency.

I'm taking over SEMrush's account to talk quality content.

-Why it matters in SEO strategies
-How to scale it

Learn how to make your content rank & convert:

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
Quality content builds trust, traffic, & conversions.

⚡️It's:

-Intent-driven
-Authoritative
-Empowering
-Educational
-Memorable
-Interesting
-Engaging
-Targeted
-Detailed
-Helpful
-Unique

🛑 It's NOT:

-Regurgitated, fluffy, lazy, boring, & unhelpful.

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
Relevant content is more likely to resonate with your audience.

This leads to more:

-Clicks
-Engagement
-Backlinks

Which positively impacts rankings, authority, awareness, & revenue.

Low-quality content might rank but won't convert as successfully.

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
High-quality content is a bigger investment but leads to higher ROI.

Bc it:

-Answers "why" & shares contextual info

-Explains how to fix problems & reach goals

-Includes examples that bring ideas to life

-Shares unique insights that differentiate

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
A documented strategy + high-quality content = the winning combination.

❌ A great plan supported by bad content fails.

❌ Quality content aimed at a moving target also fails

Combined, you achieve rank and resonance 🏆

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
The key is to start slow, then ramp up.

The last thing you want is a scarlet "unhelpful content" stamp on your brand.

Avoid a velocity-first approach.

Build a framework, then scale strategically.

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
Content also decays with time.

It's much easier to optimize quality than low-value content.

It's the difference between a refresh & a rewrite.

👀 BIG difference.

Future-proof your content today, and save time, headaches, & serious cash down the line.

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
Before you fire up the production line, understand:

-Why you're creating content in the first place

-Who you're speaking to

-How you want to come across

The strongest content marketing strategies include editorial standards from day one.

@ericasmyname #SEOThread
I wrote another thread that goes into detail on how to scale a quality production line strategically.

Have you read blogs titled ‘12 best footer examples’ to find one brilliant example and one that’s blah?

When I wrote for @klaviyo, I had to sort through 300 emails to find the perfect 15.

I was pulling my hair out finding ones highlighting Klaviyo AND the article’s intent. Image
🔥 So I developed a matrix for scoring quality examples👇

(My actual Matrix for Klaviyo in the last tweet!)
👉1. How recent is the example? (Importance 5/5)

The world–especially the digital one–changed completely post-covid. Any examples from before 2020 should be analyzed heavily for relevance today.

SEO’s make recommendations 100% of the time. But according to a recent Ttwitter poll, they only get implemented around 30-40% of the time. 😱So what gives? Why is implementation such a blocker 🛑 and how can you overcome it?

#SEOthread @JohnMorabitoSEO
Let’s start with the top reasons your recommendations sit in a dev queue.

✅Lack of understanding of the why and how
✅Lack of senior-level buy-in
✅Not tied to OKRs or KPIs
✅Not properly prioritized
✅Simply not possible

Each can be overcome.
#seothread @JohnMorabitoSEO
Lack of understanding of the why and how behind an SEO recommendation is a sure fire way to not get anything done. 😕 Make sure the team you are asking for help understands exactly what they need to do, and WHY you are asking them to do it. 💬
