Have you ever imagine if the content you post is not just another content, but something your audiences cannot forget about?
Can you also imagine if your audiences not just accidentally read or watch your content in their newsfeed or timeline, but they look for it and wait for you to post a new one? In other words, they crave for it.
Sounds very interesting right?

Since 15 years ago, content had started to show its sign. A marketer should have realized how content would have taken over the marketing world. Blog had became increasingly popular, social media had came to change the way we socialize and Google begun to modify its search algorithm to content based.
And now here we are. Content, whether in text, pictures or video is everywhere, your website, social media and search engine results.

So, how are you going to create a content that is valuable?
Here are some basic rules:
- Content should be useful.
- Content should make you want to let others know.

Also, to make it easier, I have created an infographic of the list of content types.
Here it is.
