Better Content

PROCESSES FOR AN SEO AGENCY

Direction is a small marketing agency delivering SEO services to middle-stage to established company clients. Its staff of 10+ experts includes marketing managers and SEO analysts who provide guidance on the best strategies for linking, keyword ranking, and gaining a competitive edge, among other
SEO hacks.


Direction is all about SEO and content deliverables, but
they were having trouble getting their content production processes down. They had quality issues with the writing they were receiving from other vendors, some so severe that they extended into plagiarism. The company was also struggling with the process to request and review content, which had become a time- and resource-consuming burden.


Direction knew they needed a change, and fast. Their brand reputation depended on their ability to get better content with a better strategy.

ContentBacon stepped in to help create a stronger content production process and get the quality Direction needed for their SEO clients. The results ended up being a game-changer for Direction. Here’s a deeper look at what happened.

Direction's Challenges 

CONTENT QUALITY AND PROCES

 

Direction had been running into issues finding high-quality content and understanding the full extent of the production process. They wanted to save money where possible, but quickly learned the most cost-effective avenues weren’t always the best options. The cheaper content vendors ended up providing assignments filled with mistakes, redundancies, and even plagiarism.


The solution was simple: Customers are much more satisfied and see actual results with better content. Direction needed higher-quality written deliverables as well as a complete and dedicated team behind their content strategy to deliver better results for their clients.
