Content Gap Analysis

Here the performance of the current content is compared with the performance of the desired content. You can then determine the difference between the current state and the target state and determine actions to close the gaps based on that. The results of this gap analysis allow companies to discover and activate hidden and untapped potential. This applies to optimizing existing content as well as creating new content. This makes content marketing more effective, increases ROI and increases profits.

Existing content

The first step in content gap analysis is to define strategic goals. These could be increased SEO visibility and traffic, or user and social signals for publishers. In eCommerce, you are often looking to increase conversion rates by targeting a specific audience or stage of the sales funnel. This is followed by an inventory of all content, including current performance. With data-driven approaches such as Searchmetrics Research Cloud, performance is easy to measure. The software identifies content that performs well, meaning it ranks well and generates a lot of traffic, as well as pages with high potential, but not using them optimally. It also shows quick win URLs that rank on the second page for strong keywords in Google. Underperforming content is also visible for content gap analysis. All content is organized in a matrix: save, delete and optimize.

New content

The next step in the content gap analysis is to identify a gap: does the existing content cover all the target audience requirements and relevant topics? Which are not covered? Does the site offer content for every stage of the sales funnel or for every type of customer? The same goes for your own business goals. What content should be created based on analytics and insights to meet the needs or interests of new users? What consistent content on topic x is missing to attract a buyer in stage y? What content is missing to bridge the gap between reality and purpose?

To do this, all content is compared to the company-defined target inventory. Clarity about personas provides insight into user needs, behavior and interactions. User requirements are filled in for each field, e.g. B. Information on a specific topic. Adding your business goals can help ensure the content has the right appeal (like a call-to-action). This matrix makes clear which requirements existing content does not yet meet.

Resources through market research

Because content marketing cannot address all customers and users individually, it is all the more important to identify and reach individuals and groups of users: if the content strategy is neglected, link building opportunities are lost. Market research may be conducted to identify individuals and needs and to collect feedback about the site. Who are the buyers, what are their interests, what products, services and information are they looking for when they visit the website? Which elements are missing? This helps you understand which topics customers are responding to and which areas hold promise for success.

If these resources aren't available to you, data-driven approaches can help you gain valuable insights: Searchmetrics Content Experience is a tool for researching topics and creating high-quality content that aligns with users' interests. Promising topics that fit your content strategy can be easily found and selected to improve your search engine presence. Topics can be analyzed based on semantic context, ranking, seasonality, and competitiveness, as well as search intent and funnel stages.

Different display options help create content that fills a gap in previously overlooked topics. This helps create content for high-quality, in-demand topics that fits the purpose of the page, meets user expectations, and considers the stage of the buying cycle. Also, the content can be published when the demand is higher. This makes the text not only of high quality and integrity, but also relevant, because it reaches the right user at the right time.

Searchmetrics' competitive analysis of the content experience shows how content from selected referring domains compares to your site, where your site is performing well, and where your competitors are performing better. The structure and diversity of the content of the competitor's sites is monitored. This helps identify gaps in your own content, develop potential, and activate new high-potential topics. Finally, the content gap analysis identifies specific policy actions that are expected to close the gap and advance the current and target state.
