      • HOW WE COME UP WITH CONTENT ?
        In today’s podcast we tell you how we come up with content here for WMA. We discuss our failures, we discuss what worked and didn’t work for us; why we choose not to have ppts for our classes or have an online course and also why we don’t do webinars.
        The 129th episode of Digital India Podcast on FIR Podcast Network is brought to you by staff and students of  Web Marketing Academy
        And most important why we don’t focus on ROI but on takeaways instead. Through this podcast we try to enlighten our audience about how we try to integrate our culture with our content.
        Every platform has its role and each requires a different kind of content and approach and our team works to ensure that we adapt to that. My team and I discuss and share ideas and have some amazing takeaways for you.

              In this week’s Podcast, Siddhi Jain, Pooja and Suresh discussed How to filter content that matters to you.
              The 122nd episode of Digital India Podcast on FIR Podcast Network is brought to you by staff and students of  Web Marketing Academy
               
              In today’s Information overload, how do we know which content to consume, which content to ignore and where to find the right content. We have this FOMO: Fear of Missing Out, but with so much noise on the internet every produces content and want to share their content. How does one decide what type of content should we consume? This Podcast content comes from a LinkedIn Post which Suresh wrote. 
               https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/content-filter-how-consume-matters-suresh-babu/
               
              We talked about Discovery Content, Bookmarkable Content, and Timely content
               

              What is content?

              In the simplest terms, content is information – practical, functional, tactical. Want more definitions? Check out the Top Rank Blog that has 40+ definitions from experts in the industry.

              What is Content Marketing?

              Definition by Joe Pulizzi of Content Marketing Institute. “Content marketing is the strategic marketing approach of creating and distributing valuable, relevant and consistent content to attract and acquire a clearly defined audience – with the objective of driving profitable customer action.”

              Content Marketing Institute has a great resource on definitions of Content Marketing as well in the Getting Started section.
