Editor's Notes
- Dive into the ‘arrow’ animation --- explaining how if an individual (Scott, Chris, Ali) is discussing the keywords in their blog post it is going to go to their own blog as well as any of the Compended/keyword blogs. Emphasize that the Compended blogs are not instantly created based on content; they are free standing blogs that are going to be MORE recently updated, MORE frequently updated and most importantly titled with a specific keyword and the content is narrowly focused on that specific keyword. Every other blogging platform available organizes content based on Authors. This might make sense if it’s a CEO-only blog. However with the idea that blogging is widespread within an organizaion individual authors become less important and the goal becomes organizing all that content around specific topics or keywords. This accomplishes two important things: The Search Engines like these pages better because they are titled properly with the target keyword phrase or topic These blogs are much more RELEVANT to the searcher. They see a page who’s title is a specific match to the keyword phrase the entered with content that is only discussing that topic. A final benefit is the simple fact that this content has been written by human beings. If social networking is telling us anything, it’s telling us that people prefer to deal with other people. Not Brands, Not Institutions but People Transition Notes: So far we have really been focusing on acquisition --- winning search. Let’s now take a bigger picture look at how Compendium plays a role in all three stages of the engagement cycle --- acquisition – engagement & ultimately, conversion. Starting with content!
