Hello Annie Pilon, very good and actionable suggestions. Content re-purposing is one of my favorite internet marketing techniques which gets me results every time I used. Video contents are also very effective. Be it a blog or a business, it must have its video content strategy ready with it. Even info-graphics are highly powerful and gets good results to content marketers. Being a digital marketer and trainer, I always use, recommend and teach these three whenever I get an opportunity.

Your strategy need to be more direct. It is not about creating more content but creating better quality content instead.
More than backlinks, you should create content that automatically attracts shares just because it is so good.
It is not just about automation but doing less for maximum results. Content marketing doesn’t need to be robotic. It should be done with passion.
