Excellent content requires great tools

By Sara Hernandez

Managing website content is a never-ending task. The webpages need to be regularly reviewed and updated and new content has to be frequently created to meet stakeholder and business requirements. Content tools can make this task easier.

Lack of time and changing priorities have always been a challenge when managing a corporate website. To make this task easier, tools are needed to help you review and improve your content. We recently hosted a webinar with Episerver on this topic, and below is a summary of the tools we use regularly with our clients.

Webranking

One of our own tools is the annual survey Webranking by Comprend. It surveys stakeholders such as analysts, investors, business journalists and jobseekers to understand what information they expect from corporate websites. Based on their input we identify the gaps between stakeholders’ expectations and content on a corporate website.

The Webranking Report gives an overview of areas of improvement, and provides a practical list of the information your site is currently missing. The Report helps companies to prioritise areas of content development.

Pre-order your Webranking Report today to get the early bird price.
