Ever heard of evergreen?
When it comes to planning your content marketing strategy, it´s a very good idea to free up some space for evergreen content. As its name suggests, evergreen content doesn´t really go out of date; it has the potential to remain topical and generate traffic for a long time after it´s posted.
But what makes content evergreen and how can you add longevity and relevance to your posts?
One of the easiest ways to use evergreen content to attract visits is to publish posts about cyclical events, say those that happen annually, and update them every year. Think ´best-of´ posts, ´top 10´ posts, useful tips on a specific industry-related topic or a wide discussion or interview with industry representatives on trends; these can all make excellent evergreen pieces.
´How-to´ posts and tutorials are another possibility. They allow you to stay relevant because there are always new audiences becoming interested in what you are doing and what you can show them. Providing a video to accompany them is even better, and getting these videos onto a YouTube channel can be a winning strategy.
Last but not least, think about posts that track the history of something. These are bound to be evergreen because historical facts rarely change. Even if they do, thanks to a great new discovery or such like, they can be updated easily. Historical articles are educational and, as such, will always attract the attention of those searching for background information on a specific topic.
