Content marketing is a vital component of any business' marketing strategy.

In this blog post, we'll take a look at why content marketing is so effective and how you can use it to be successful.
What is Content Marketing
Content marketing is the use of content to market a business or organization to potential customers. It is a voluntary process that can be used by anyone, no matter what industry they're in. In fact, some companies only do content marketing when they're running for office.
The Types of Content Marketing
There are two types of content marketing that you should be aware of: paid and unpaid. Paid content marketing refers to when you pay someone to write a piece of content for you that then you can use for your marketing purposes. Unpaid content marketing refers to when you write your own content and post it on social media outlets like Facebook or Twitter. This type of content is free to use and therefore carries no branding or logo associated with it.

Or, for example, if you're running a successful e-commerce site, then you might want to use content marketing to drive more traffic to your site.
