As in any marketing strategy, the goal of content marketing is to attract leads that ultimately convert into customers. But it does so differently than traditional advertising.

1. Why is digital marketing important?
Any type of marketing can help your business thrive.
To create effective content that’s highly relevant and engaging, it’s important to identify your audience. Once you have a better grasp of your audience, you can determine the type of content you’ll create.

– Social media marketing – Social media marketing means driving traffic and brand awareness by engaging people in discussion online.
– Pay-per-click marketing – Pay-per-click, or PPC, is a form of digital marketing in which you pay a fee every time someone clicks on your digital ads.
– Affiliate marketing – Affiliate marketing is a digital marketing tactic that lets someone make money by promoting another person’s business.
– Native advertising – Native advertising is digital marketing in disguise. Its goal is to blend in with its surrounding content so that it’s less blatantly obvious as advertising.
– Influencer marketing – Like affiliate marketing, influencer marketing relies on working with an influencer–an individual with a large following, such as a celebrity, industry expert, or content creator–in exchange for exposure.
– Email marketing – he concept of email marketing is simple—you send a promotional message and hope that your prospect clicks on it.
