If you have doubts regarding how much you should pay your content writer, I would like to say, think, what value you derive out of his or her content. After all, you are going to run your entire online business on the strength of the content you have on your homepage and elsewhere. Your business content is more important than your website layout and you will realize this if you somehow manage to stay on despite shoddy content.

Content Strategy

While creating content for your website or blog more than its length (quantity) focus on the value it delivers because that’s what eventually matters. Remember that your content is not remembered for the number of words it has, but for the purpose it achieves.

B2B content writing is a more specialized field where you have to spend considerable amount of time learning the nuances and expressions of that particular business. Most of the managers and decision makers are experts in their fields and they are totally comfortable with the jargon and definitions used in the content of the B2B website. You don’t want to sound like a layperson when you’re writing content for a B2B website.

Rather than getting into a content generation binge (unless you have a big team of highly talented and focused content writers) you should focus on creating effective and productive content for your website or blog. Remember that the primary purpose of publishing content on your website is to keep your visitors well-informed, educated and engaged so that when they really want something that you have to offer, they remember that you offer it and you offer it well.
