How to market your B2B website content

Many business-to-business (B2B) companies, who’ve traditionally produced print publications in order to communicate with their target market, have realised that to survive in this digital age, they need to start publishing web content that either takes over from their print publications or functions hand in hand with them. Here are two ideas to get your B2B website known on the worldwide web.

Social media is the way the modern world connects

LinkedIn is by far the most effective social media platform to use to promote your B2B web content.

This social media network which, according to Social Media Today, is ranked by B2B marketers as the most-effective social media site, has a number of funcitons like groups and company pages, which you can use to promote your B2B website content.

One of the best ways to promote your content is to find groups whose members will be interested in your content. So, for example, if you run an online HR magazine, find groups of HR professionals on LinkedIn with whom you can share your content – they will be most likely to find your content useful and interesting, and consequently follow the link to your site and sign up to your magazine.

Find a blog which will allow you to submit guest blogs

This form of content-sharing is a good way to promote your B2B web content. Identify the most well-respected blogs in your industry and approach the owner or writer for this blog. Asking if you can contribute guest blog posts to their site, this will help to spread your company name and may even help with backlinks to your site if you are allowed to include a link.

To illustrate with an example, it would be like the HR magazine from the previous point, approaching a business consulting site and offering to provide content on HR issues for them to publish to their community. This is beneficial to the business consultant because they are having content written by a professional in the industry, adding value to their readers. For the HR magazine, they are positioning themselves as experts in this field to the readers of the business consultants blog readers, and offers SEO benefits in terms of backlinks to the magazine website.

Promoting your business using content is a new way in which you can become known online, it isn’t difficult but does require well-written online copy, so make sure you can do this or hire a copywriter to do it for you.
