Hello Erik,
SEO and your keywords selection make a big impact on potential customer finding your content.
In my opinion – content should be like that your audience should come away feeling like they’ve learned something or that they’ve been entertained in a way that resonates with their lives and values.
A good content marketing strategy drives profitable customer action.
Eventually, thanks for revealing a light on this topic.
With best wishes,
