One of the biggest marketing topics of the past year has been content marketing. Regardless of how you feel about the concept, it’s no secret that customers – and search engines – love a website with fresh, engaging content. But how to you keep your site frequently updated without overwhelming customers, not to overlook that you need fresh sales coming in too!

In this session, we’ll focus on covering the basic foundations for website optimization when it comes to a marketing perspective. We’ll talk about the customer lifecyle and share important questions you should answer to better understand your own customers and clients. We’ll close with recommendations on plugins and resources to help you take action and work on improving your website.
