Why Every Business Need To Invest In Content

Why Every Business Need To Invest In Content

| Business | No Comments

Content Development is the gold statement in the internet publishing and race to be on top of search engines and the first page of search results. The emerging role of content is affecting top brands, top publishers, and long-standing enterprises. Consumer engagement and approach to influence consumer-buying decisions turned out to be a game of quality content presentation and distribution for reach.

“Content is King”, you must be heard this statement before. Yes, it is true.

Educational content about products and services is a major influencer driving consumer engagement to take action. Writing content for consumers is a vehicle to build an audience rather than quick-hit audience acquisition through advertisement.

People are looking for informative content that delivers rich and intense information about product features, service offering, how to use those products and services.

Informative content is not limited to feature listing and product benefits, it has gone further miles ahead with the phrases like “How to”, “Hacks on”, and “Learn More”. Products and services that rank on the top are those who fill the internet websites, forums, social media channels and email newsletters with those buzzwords “How to”, “Hacks on” and “Learn more”.

Products consumers are always struggling to make the best utilization of their money; consumers are abandoning many products and services with little to none availability of content about product or service around the consumer reach.

How people read the content?

The attention span of Internet users is limited to a few seconds to find what they want. After opening a specific page to read something, that page gets less 15 seconds of reader attention before deciding to leave out.

Most of the web users will have a quick look into the left side of the page looking for their target before turning back.

Majority of the users will have a look at the first part of the page, although they will scroll down, however, their attention span is reducing quickly while they are scrolling looking for information, especially with mobile users.

The good information, that visitors who spend more than 3 minutes reading a page, will likely return back to the same website or page looking for more information.

Among web users who spend the time to read, 20% of users will read 20% of the text, and 10% to 20% of those readers will read the entire text.

People develop opinions about brands, and products names after reading more than 15 seconds.

Storytelling style with well-structured information presentation will get more than 100 seconds of engagement of reading by web users.

How People Read Content Online is an infographic showing a study of people behavior reading and consuming content.

Content First or Design First?

Neither is first. They both should move the hand in hand. Putting the content before design takes business teams nerves to come out with clear and focused words towards their goals. If a business has not defined its goals of the content for their website, a design comes handy to spark the ideas and generate more words to fill out gaps.

Developing content is tedious work for writers who do not have a proper foundation of targets to achieve, a design sketch or mockup definitely will spark writers to have a vision and framework for their content. Regardless of constraints imposed by design sketches, good writers are able to work within design constraints and innovate.

On the other side, waiting for designers to come out with good design is waste of precious time to be on the market, those months of delay can be utilized to generate content, drive traffic to the website, and establish engagement with target audience. The endless process of design revisions could delay time to market while pushing designers with effective content to fill out their design and gain more understanding of content strategy will improve design revisions; developing content and design is not a joyful process, it a process full of frustration between content writers and designers.

How Millennials Consume Content?

Millennials trust recommendation from strangers, they read their peers generated content, they read comments; they read reviews before making a decision to buy something.

Millennials have abundant time beyond elders, unlike elders do; millennials prefer to read digital content.

The fact of millennials are not reading is not true; they prefer reading digital content rather than watching the news on TV. Millennials are consuming YouTube videos more than elders are, they consume material with stories that stroke their interest, material that build their skills, material that help them to make an opinion about a product or a service.

Millennials consume content differently, they are searching for content and skim through it quickly; and then they will search for other relevant content that supports the first, and so on. They develop their decisions based on their peers’ (known of strangers) recommendations from social media channels and then support it with material from the web.

Millennials are clever and innovative, do not underestimate their skills; they are native internet users, unlike transformed users who have the skills to read printed material.

Microsoft is turning Minecraft content to business generating revenue

Content is a revenue generation stream. It is not hard to believe that fact when you read about a giant making hundreds of billions of dollars investing in one of its products and convert its content into revenue generation stream.

The story of Microsoft with Minecraft content started as a hobby and turned out to actual business with an established marketplace. They hobbyist community started by enthusiasts to host readymade Minecraft jobs for others to consume; turned by Microsoft into the marketplace for selling those jobs. Microsoft claims that it is its responsibility to ensure the safety of its predominantly young audience and avoid alienating its Minecraft community members. The fact is they are focusing on increasing their revenue through guidance and control of results.

If Microsoft is envisioning solid cash flow coming from the content, they will not put efforts and invest money into developing a special marketplace for this type of content.

Small Business must have a content marketing strategy

A large portion of customers would learn about a company through an article online.

Several examples illustrated in Andrew Gazdecki article demonstrating small businesses who were able to make leap difference and success by focusing on their content development and marketing strategy.

Small businesses can build themselves faster by developing content. In a world of tough competition, content is the foundation for small businesses to establish themselves as an authority in their field.

Email Marketing with Content

Email is a big player driving customers to websites, it is one of the best ways businesses use to connect with their audience. Email traditionally used as a channel for sales instead of sharing brands’ content, however email remains number one tool to stay in touch audience.

Enriching email newsletters with focused statements driven with “Call to Action”, and good visual presentation of content coupled with images and videos, is important to urge readers to take action.

Is A Hard Loan A Good Investment Tool For Your Situation?

Is A Hard Loan A Good Investment Tool For Your Situation?

| Investments | No Comments

Getting a mortgage today is nowhere as easy as it used to be. Less expensive interest-wise, if you don’t have the right assets or income to debt ratio, you may be left without many options. Hard money loans are the answer to many difficult investment situations. They are structured differently than traditional loans and are most commonly associated with much higher interest rates. Before you take one out, it is best to decide if it is worth it for your investment purposes.

Hard money loans are the perfect solution for investors who intend to purchase a house but never own it long enough to worry about the rate of interest. People who buy an investment property and expect to sell it quickly can benefit from a hard money transaction because they can get quick money without jumping through all the hoops or having the equity that it takes to be approved for a mortgage.

Hard money loans differ from traditional loans in many ways. Often not coming from a traditional lender, hard money lenders or HMLs are typically loaned from either small equity groups or private individuals. The major advantage is that they often do not take into consideration things such as credit scores. As much as twice the average of interest mortgage loans, they also are associated with high origination fees.

Other major advantages are that you can borrow up to 100% of the value of the home. Using the property as collateral, you can mortgage the property with the property, that is very attractive for business who are purchasing the home to fix it up and build quick equity then pay it off just as quickly. Often not making more than a couple of payments on the hard money loan, they aren’t concerned with the rate because it will likely not affect them.

Hard money loans are usually approved with very little paperwork and within just a couple of days. With traditional mortgage loans taking as many as 30 to 45 days to close, it is sometimes an attractive proposition to the seller. Being able to close quickly and to give cash on hand, many sellers may be more willing to take less than to have to own the house for longer than they want to.

So, is a Hard Money Loan for you?

If you are looking at buying a home for personal use, then a hard money loan is not the way to go. If you don’t have the funds to pay for a mortgage now, it is much smarter to clear up your credit, save for a down payment, and try to go the traditional route. If you are looking at a property merely for investment and quick equity building, then it may be a smart decision. The allure of being able to close quickly may save you on the price of the house, and although having a high-interest rate, you likely won’t be paying more than a month or two before you can pay the entire balance off. For more information about the potential to obtain a hard money loan, contact Blue Jay Equity investments for more information about whether it is in your best interest.

Investing In Precious Metals 101

| Business | No Comments

Precious metals have always been recognized as valuable, as their name clearly portraits it. Their value is especially significant in times of crises, such as war, political or economic. Unfortunately, we are all aware that all of them are constantly present throughout the world, which makes investment in precious metals always a current topic. However, it is not as simple as preparing a sum of money and buying some precious metal for safety. Investing in precious metals is a complex process; let us cover everything you need to know about it.  

Investing In Precious Metals 101

Gold

Gold’s unique durability has made it a sought after material since the dawn of time. Although it has industrial applications, dentistry and electronics in particular, it is best known and mostly used in jewelry production, as well as a currency. The price of gold is determined on a daily basis. In turmoil times it is increasingly sought after as a means of safety. For example, if there are any local or global financial concerns of such proportions that banks and money are deemed as unstable, the price of gold rises since the demand for it increases. In times of inflation, it is desired as an asset whose value is constant and even increased. Lastly, in war time conditions, it is always more convenient to have all your savings or property turned into the form of 100 oz gold bars that can be conveniently carried and traded or sold whenever and wherever needed.

Investing In Precious Metals 101

Silver

Compared to gold, price fluctuations of silver are more volatile.  The main reason for this is the fact that the silver is perceived as both a store of value and an industrial metal, particularly in battery industry and superconductor and microcircuit applications. What this means in practice is that the price of silver may fluctuate significantly, especially if compared to gold. Therefore, investing in silver can be both very beneficial and utterly devastating, all depending on the purchase and sale timing.

Investing In Precious Metals 101

Platinum

Platinum is the third on the list of precious metals worth investing in. It is regularly traded throughout the world and is usually of higher value than gold in times of political and financial stability. Just like silver, its price is determined by industrial use as well. Platinum is used in auto and computer industry, jewelry production and petroleum and chemistry refineries. All of the above makes platinum the most volatile of all precious metals, which means that a special care is required when investment timing is concerned.

Investing In Precious Metals 101

Investment Options

There are several investment options and which should be chosen depends solely on your level of expertise, future plans and current conditions. For example, golden certificates are of equal benefit as physical gold ownership without having to think about storage. However, in times of real physical danger, such as war, they will be rough to trade for practical goods. On the other hand, Exchange traded funds are a convenient worldwide accepted manner of buying and selling precious metals. Investing in stock and mutual funds that have shares in mining companies is another option, particularly when it comes to silver and platinum. Lastly, buying antique coins and newly minted ones is also an established and practical investment option, especially when storage options are limited.

Do not overinvest

Due to precious metals volatile nature, investment in them should be seen as leverage for other investments and savings and way of securing your future for possible dire situations. What this also means is that your precious metal investments need to be counterbalanced with other type of investment in case something drastic happens at the precious metals market. In other words, do not overinvest in them in order not to endanger your present and future financial stability.

To sum up, investing in precious metals is all about proper judgment, timing and leaves no room for hazardousness. If you feel you fit the profile or trust a professional that does, give it a serious thought and by all means start small.

5 Reasons Your Credit Score Is Low

| Finance | No Comments

Why is my credit score is low? This is perhaps one of the most common questions most individuals ask themselves when they find out they have a low credit score. The only thing worse than getting an unpleasant surprise is to get an unpleasant surprise about your finances. If you are in such a predicament, here is an overview of some of the most common reasons that might bring about this.

Paying Bills Late

This is perhaps one of the major contributing factors when it comes to a poor credit rating. When an individual’s rating is being calculated, past payment history is usually factored in. while one or two late payments on your credit cards, your mortgage or any other financial obligation over long periods of time might not have a huge impact on your overall score, making a habit of it might end up damaging your score in the long run.

According to ChargedOff.org a charge off specifically can significantly affect your score in a negative way. A charge off usually comes about as a result of not paying off your credit card for prolonged periods of time: usually six months in a row. As such, you should ensure you pay off your credit bills or loans in time.

Not Paying the Minimum Due Amount

For individuals who might be asking themselves why is my credit score is low, then not paying the minimum due amount on your cards is also another contributing. There is a common misconception that making a payment even if it is lower than the required amount will keep one in good books with the company in question. However, this is not always the case, some companies have strict financial guidelines and as a norm do not hesitate to report your account as past due. Paying less than the required amount will also result in additional charges that will eventually drive up your debt.

Too Many Cards

While it can be quite tempting to sign up for department store credit cards or credit cards with extra savings or free gifts, doing so can be quite detrimental to your score. The reason behind this is that, even if you may not be using the cards potential creditors might worry that you might not be able to make payments if you decide to use all the cards. Additionally, the numerous inquiries into for your credit card report might be misinterpreted that lenders are on your neck or you might be having financial woes.

High Debt Levels

High debt levels can also have a negative impact on an individual’s score. Reason being, potential creditors might question your ability to pay off existing or any new credit cards because they consider you as a high risk customer. When faced with such a predicament, it is usually advisable to reduce your debt level and at the same time carry out a credit repair to see if your score might improve.

Error on your Credit Report

Having an error on your credit report might also bring about a dismal score on your credit. if you review your report and credit history and feel that your score is lower than it should be, then carrying out credit repair should be your next course of action.

| Finance | No Comments

When self-employed, the matter of financial insecurity tends to overshadow the liberties and all other advantages. Lately, the industry has been graced by the presence of a new range of companies, with the aim to address this main issue of self-employment.

There are now bespoke solutions for a specific range of professionals who aren’t always easily accommodated by the current workforce management solutions. These are ideal for consultants, contractors of freelancers who need to maximize their real earnings and have a sense of security in their professional lives.

People who work at more than one workplace can benefit of these services for continuous employment and can choose how frequently you get paid. Also, freelancers can select the package which they consider more fit, according to their needs. The chosen company will manage all their taxes and paperwork and ensure the most lucrative solutions. The help obtained this way is priceless and makes the self-employed have a better taste of real employment, instead of drifting and facing anxieties.

It is possible for these companies to carry out negotiations to obtain a better contract rate for every job. It is a truly fantastic solution, as it gets to remove the insecurity of temporary work. By ensuring a more constant flow of income, it makes it closer to permanent work.

Freelancers enticed by these new advantages should look for something like an Umbrella Company. Then, they can choose an employment package that encompasses so much more than what they were used to when working completely on their own.

Why choose it over an agency though? It’s because an umbrella company of this kind actually gets to work with several agencies and can do a lot more for its clients. Agencies treat all assignments separately, whereas being an umbrella employee means that you get a whole range of benefits. It can be more than you expect. You could be enjoying advantages like funds being paid as bonus at certain intervals.

Freelancers are among the most stressed workers because they are constantly dealing with new clients and tasks and have to face some of the most terrible fears out there: what will there be next? Will I make enough money? Will the industry keep going strong? There is no constant income for such a worker and the finances represent a truly delicate subject. To end all this anxiety, one can opt to have an “umbrella” above their head. Being employed through such a company that’s working with various agencies can also get them paid holidays, which is a huge benefit considering that self-employed individuals can’t enjoy such.

Also, count that such companies offer great insights into the various industries. Through them, professionals can improve their knowledge and strategy considerably.

This is one solution that can finally instill some peace of mind and inject some of the much sought-after stability into one’s life. The services are flexible and the individual is free to chose the desired level of cover, so to speak.

5 Things You Can Do Today To Improve Your Credit Score

| Finance | No Comments

Having bad credit can be like a stone tied to your ankles. The sensation of drowning in debt is not fun for anyone. When your credit rating is good, it allows you to lead the kind of life that you want to lead. Whether it’s getting that dream house you’ve always longed for or owning that beautiful classic car that you had on your bedroom wall as a teenager. There are a number of ways that you better your credit rating and here are five things to get you started on your road to credit success.

  1. Set a regular date. It’s extremely important, when trying to better your credit score, to set a regular date to sit down and review your rating and your methods to improve said rating. If you don’t, you most likely lose track of what you’re doing and a bad debt will find itself working its way into your credit report. All you need to do is set aside one or two nights a month. It could make all the difference to your credit score.
  2. Get regular credit reports. As a part of your monthly review, be sure to get a regular credit report. Credit Sesame is a fantastic online resource for this and could help you to dramatically raise your credit score. So get online and get clicking because the more you know about your rating the better it will become.
  3. Consider a secure card. Signing yourself up for a secure credit card is a safe and efficient way to up your credit rating. Basically, you set the amount of money you wish to spend based on the security deposit that you put down. It means you’ll be less likely to overspend, and if you do, there will be a buffer in place if necessary. Once you’ve made a couple of years of successful payments on your secure credit card, you’ll notice that your credit score will be soaring like never before.
  4. Cut down on your spending. This one might seem a little obvious, but to some of us it’s not. Start making a clear budget and sticking to it. Live within your means and spend accordingly. Find cheaper alternatives to your otherwise excessive lifestyle. Change the brands that you use, seek out bargains carefully and consider your options more frugally and you’ll eventually see a change in how much money you owe.
  5. Argue your point. Beware of the credit-reporting agency. Sometimes they get information wrong, and in the case that something is erroneous, be sure to make a dispute in writing as well as online if that platform is provided. There are a number of credit reporting agencies out there so be sure that your information is correct across the board and make sure you’re not being penalized for things that have already been resolved. Things can find themselves stuck on old computer systems for a long time if you don’t do something to eliminate them.

Top Tips For Small-Business Online Marketing

| Finance | No Comments

Small-business owners are often short of two things – time and money. So when it comes to maintaining an effective marketing strategy for their online presence, this can often slip down their list of priorities. These tips will help focus on the key aspects of the task and will help it seem more manageable. They will lead to better online presence and performance for any site.

Plenty of Content

Search engines are now geared up to scan the content of a site rather than just meta tags. Users also enjoy interesting and relevant content relating to the product or service on the site, which helps ensure they come back again and again. It needn’t be long or complex – just a few facts or tips about your product category or industry sector can be sufficient.

Stay Fresh

Search engines also track how old the content is on your site and how frequently it changes – so keeping it up to date is vital. Just setting aside an hour a week will keep it looking well maintained.

No Shortcuts

Some companies will promise to be able to get your site to the top of search results overnight. Unfortunately, the search engines know when shortcuts are being employed and are constantly fighting to stamp them out – so you may well find that you have paid for a high rank which only lasts a few weeks.

Relevant Links

Yet another element of your site that the search engines will examine is the number of links per page, as well as who your site is linking to. They do not like pages with lists of links, or links that are irrelevant to the content on a page.

Be Organized

This is important not just for search ranking but also for your users – a well structured, logical, easy-to-read site with plenty of clear headings and sections will keep everyone happy.

Make It Accessible

Everyone should be able to access your site, including the visually impaired or colour-blind. The Web Accessibility Initiative provides guidelines on this for site managers.

Good Coding

Although many small-business owners won’t be directly involved in the coding of their site, it is something to be aware of. It needs to be compliant and error-free for search engines to correctly assimilate it. It is possible to run a check on your website using online tools provided by a standards body, the World Wide Web Consortium.

Get Help

Even if you don’t have a lot of spare cash, you can get professional help with your online presence. It’s a good idea to use a fairly local firm so you can discuss your requirements face to face – for instance, if you were looking for website design in Swansea, then a quick search should bring up relevant results such as Swansea web design by Accent-ADC.

Pictures Are Key

Our final tip: whatever you are hoping to sell through your site, high-quality photographs are vital. They’ve got to compensate for the fact that your customers can’t see or touch your product in real life.
