Travel, Fashion & Lifestyle CONTENT WRITING

Benefits of writing travel, fashion & lifestyle content for your blog

You’re also producing some major ROI for your business, as these content writing stats demonstrate:

• Content writing generates three times more leads as traditional marketing and costs 62% less.

• 61% of online purchases are directly related to a customer reading a blog.

• Travel & lifestyle bloggers that publish more than 16 blog posts a month get 3.5 times more traffic than those that create less than four posts per month.

Content equals business growth.

So, let’s get started with your travel, fashion or lifestyle content strategy.

Creating a travel, fashion or lifestyle blog content plan

Content exists everywhere, some would say it’s saturated. And yet it is still the main medium to communicate with potential customers, either through writing or more visual media. What is evident, is that one size does not fit all when posting content on different platforms.

Social media content differs from blog content, that itself is not like website content. So, you need to know how to craft your content to reach your audience where they are.

Social Media content

There is an art to creating content for social media. It’s well worth a company’s time since there are 2.6 billion users across a worldwide plethora of social media platforms.

Plus, should someone follow you on social media it could be considered a warm lead — they have already indicated that they are interested in what you have to say. So, your audience is waiting to engage with your net content.

Website content

Website content should prioritise in three areas: your persona or brand, your target keywords, and your product or solution. Like blog content, the copy on your website needs to guide and inspire visitors to your product or solution in a cohesive and logical way. Think of web content like a navigational map to your service or product.

Act with caution and do not turn visitors away through social media feeds and other distracting elements. Once you have enticed a potential new customer, websites must do all they can to keep them onsite, and that’s the key function of website content.

Blog content

The goal of blog content is to promote your business by attracting newcomers and bringing in qualified warm leads into the sales funnel. Blog content should be a free resource that’s not directly tied to sales, but a well-crafted piece of content to ultimately generate revenue for your travel or fashion business. As mentioned above, research has demonstrated that companies that blog more get more traffic and more leads than those that don’t.

Analysing your travel, fashion or lifestyle content writing

Lastly, and arguably most critical step in travel content writing is analysing your existing content. Without data, how do you know what you can improve?

You could measure several ways when analysing your content, so use your goals as a guide to set some targets. Whatever you want to accomplish with your fashion content will help you determine your metrics.

What you analyse is completely up to you, but here are some ideas that we suggest for our clients to measure:

• Conversion Rates: the percentage of visitors that engage with a CTA (Call-To-Action).

• Engagement Rates: the number of visitors interacting with your content through comments, shares and likes.

• Audience Growth: when new leads, sales or subscribers are generated from a piece of content.

• Page Views: the number of views that your content page generates.

• Organic Traffic: the traffic that arrives from search engines.

• Bounce Rate: the % of visitors leaving your site after visiting only one page.
