Content Outlines
Most articles you write will come with a content outline. The content outline’s goal is to enable you to create valuable content on a subject you may not personally be an expert in
- H2s
- We will provide direction & examples under each H2
- For additional context, google the H2
- If the H2 is “Best Marketing Conferences”, google “Best Marketing Conferences” and research
- Tables
- Tables are used to summarize data, make data easier to consume, or add additional value to the reader
- Do not use more than 6 columns per table for aesthetic reasons
- Internal links
- Each article will include at least 5 internal links
- Find natural areas to link to the content
Technical Requirements
Each article should include the following, at minimum, unless stated otherwise in the content series template:
- 2500 words
- 3 lists (1,2,3,4, etc)
- 3 sets of bullet points
- 2 tables
- 5+ internal links
- 3+ external links
Internal Linking For SEO
- The more internal links you have, the better. The bare minimum is 5, but if you can add 20 internal links naturally, go for it.
- Necessary internal links will be provided
- You must naturally link to these pages in your content
- Never leave bare links in the articles. Anchor = URL of the article you are linking
- Example: if you’re linking to the article: soxy.com/blogs/what-to-wear/how-to-wear-a-beanie, the hyperlinked text should read “how to wear a beanie”
- Always check the internal links table for opportunities.
