Environmentally Friendly Web Site Marketing: Recycle Your Content

recycleIn case you missed it, SiteProNews published my latest article prior to Christmas. Environmentally Friendly Web Site Marketing: Recycle Your Content is all about how to keep your site content fresh and create new products and services by re-packaging your existing content in different formats to suit different audiences. Here’s an extract:

The marketing and affiliate gurus are expert content recyclers and they make a LOT of money using this system. But guess what? You can apply the same principle to your own web site content. Here are some ideas:

  • Documentation such as training manuals and client case studies make great web page content.
  • Web page content such as product reviews and descriptions make great fodder for “how to” articles.
  • That silly staff Christmas video might make a terrific viral marketing tool.
  • A set of FAQs would make for an interesting webinar or video blog.
  • A group of case studies could be made into a free white paper or auto-responder email series.
  • A collection of articles or bookmarked tools could easily be converted to a downloadable e-book or give-away CD.
