On this week’s episode of Marketing Nerds, I was joined by Ann Smarty, the brand and community manager at Internet Marketing Ninjas, to discuss current changes and trends in the content marketing field. Ann has been in the SEO and content marketing field since 2008, which gives her a unique perspective on some of the more recent changes in our ever-changing field.

A few topics we covered in our podcast include:

  • Biggest Shifts in Content Marketing
  • Diversity in Content
  • Tools for Creating Unique Images
  • Under and Over Utilized Content Types

Tools We Mentioned

Picmonkey

This is a free web-based photo editing and design platform. There is a free version, but some fonts and features do require an upgrade to their “Royale” version, which costs just $4.99 a month or $33 a year.

Canva

This another web-based image editing and design site, but unlike Picmonkey, it offers templates and some free stock photos. Better photos and templates usually start out around $1, but you can definitely create some awesome photos for free.

cyfe

This is an all in one dashboard for managing and monitoring just about any aspect of marketing your business, from social media to sales and everything in between.
