In Summary
Creating great content isn’t as hard as it seems. Use the tips Nadya shared:
Tip 1: Solve a burning problem.
Tip 2: Find a hack for common problems.
Tip 3: Bust a myth.
Tip 4: Mashup multiple topics.
Tip 5: Find niches and subcultures.
Tip 6: Envision your customer’s before and after.
Then once your content is done, spend plenty of time promoting it. After all, if no one knows it’s there, it doesn’t matter how good it is. It won’t get read.
#1 Tip for Viral and Evergreen Content
Don’t create content for content’s sake. Instead, create value.
To do that, be human. Be real. Create something worth spending time on.
