Five Ways to Generate Content Without Writing a Word

Video and Web

Creating content for your website doesn’t need to involve lots of writing

One of the biggest challenges digital marketers face is finding fresh and original content for their sites. The world is filled with so much information, making it challenging to develop original content that will keep visitors coming back for more.

With that in mind, many marketers have discovered a simple but effective way to generate content for their websites without writing a single word.

If you’re trying to find ways to improve your content marketing strategy and generate fresh content for your site, then read on. This article covers some of the best ways to get started.

Find Fresh Subject Matter

One of the easiest ways to make your content relevant and fresh is to find fresh subject matter for your posts. Look around your industry and see what’s happening right now.

For example, if you sell travel products, you could look into the significant travel trends.

No matter what industry you’re in, there are always new and exciting trends that you can find to write about.
Another way to find new subject matter is to use a tool like BuzzSumo to find topics already mentioned on the internet.

Creating Video & Images

Create Videos

We have been saying it for years; video is the future of the web. Now it’s finally taken off, as most households and business premises have a fast enough connection for reliable streaming.]

It’s incredible how popular video content has become.

According to eMarketer, half of all internet users are expected to watch video online this year. Furthermore, digital video viewer numbers will surpass 50 million this year, accounting for nearly three-quarters of the UK population.

Video content is extremely popular because it allows you to create high-quality content without spending a lot of time writing it. It’s a great way to generate content for your website, especially if you want to keep the costs low and make it yourself with a phone.

If you need a more professional result or don’t have the time to create your own, you could always hire Video & Web.

As with blogs, you don’t need to be an expert to start creating videos. The most important thing is to have a clear idea of what you want to make.

Use image-based content

One of the most effective ways to generate fresh content for your site is to use image-based content.
As you’re already aware, content is king on the internet.

When it comes to image-based content, you have several options:

  • Use stock photos – This is especially useful if you’re trying to keep your costs down.
  • Create your own images – You can use graphics software like Canva to create your images.
  • Repurposing existing images – You can find fresh content for your website by repurposing existing images.
  • Add captions to images – Most people scan photos, not just text. Captions make your pictures much more engaging and allow your readers to add more information about the image.
  • Combine images with videos – This is especially useful if you want to create long-format content.

 

Use data as a basis for articles

Use Data-Driven Articles

If you struggle to come up with original content for your site, you can try data-driven articles. This method uses data to create content, which can be an effective way to create content without writing a single word.

Let’s say you’re an online business that sells dog food. You could use data about dog food consumption to create an article about what the average owner does and does not feed their dog.

Repurpose Existing Content

Repurposing existing content has always been a great way to steal the spotlight from competitors. For example, if your site has a lot of great information on a niche topic, you can create an article by taking content from another article on your site and adding your own spin.

This method has the advantage of not requiring you to create new content. You can also repurpose existing content to generate new ideas – so it’s a win-win.

Repurposed content appears in the same way as original content, so it’s essential to make sure the source is appropriately attributed. And, if you’re repurposing content from a guest post, make sure you have the written consent of the original author.

Conclusion

Creating new content is a big challenge for any website owner. Likewise, finding ways to generate fresh, original content is a challenge many marketers face. If you’re looking to improve your content marketing strategy, you can try some of these methods to generate content for your site.
