Content is king• Yeah we get it!• But do you have content that is

getting you links?• Do you have things getting you

long tail traffic and increasing your internet presence?

@nicomiceli

Do you have Linkable Assets besides just content?

@nicomiceli

This Is Content

@nicomiceli

This Is a Linkable Asset

@nicomiceli

“Ehhh That’s not my target audience”

@nicomiceli

The Mindset• Your clients are thinking about the

target audience• We are thinking how to increase

internet presence and get more people - real people to talk about you

@nicomiceli

Content & Linkable assets are a piece of the puzzle

It helps with linkbuilding & on page factors

Stay on topic but widen your audience!

@nicomiceli

Widening your audience will widen your target audience

@nicomiceli

But it’s sometimes difficult

So let’s dive into the two things that hinder linkable content

@nicomiceli

“There isn’t much cool stuff in my industry”

“My industry is boring”

@nicomiceli

@nicomiceli

• Think about your product– What are the things

related and associated to it?

– Are there any emotions or feelings that come out of it?

– What facts can you think off?

– What are your customers, customers interested in?

– What are the effects of it?
