Content marketing & outreach
Good content marketing will bring your business more web traffic, better quality leads and improved brand awareness. It also helps you to develop long-lasting relationships that keep your customers coming back.
Content marketing is much more than just writing good copy – although that's certainly important. Great content marketing allows you to connect with your customers outside of normal transactional experiences, developing deeper and longer-lasting relationships that keep customers coming back to your site.
Brands who do content marketing well enjoy the benefits of increased traffic, better quality leads, improved brand awareness and customer loyalty.
Our approach to developing a content marketing strategy is a four-stage process. The research and insights stage aims to develop an in-depth understanding of your customers’ needs and wants, online behaviors and preferred channels.
We do this through:
- Social listening for both your brand and your competitors
- Topic and keyword research
- Site search
- Customer feedback
- Social customer service
- Analytics
We then use these insights to develop a content strategy linked to your core customer personas and expected business outcomes. The aim of your strategy is to develop experience-led content that customers want to engage with, link to, share and talk about.
Your customers’ interests inform your strategy, which is customized to your business and brand. This ensures that all content is relevant, reflects your brand tone of voice and sets you apart from your competitors.
Blogger outreach connects you with online influencers in your industry to build genuine relationships and create authentic, inspiring content.
Why is blogger outreach important?
By developing strong connections and relationships with influencers, you can build a community of bloggers to collaborate on SEO, content marketing or social media marketing campaigns.
Blogger outreach also helps build your influencer advocacy, boosts your brand and inspires fresh content. It can:
- Increase your brand presence and overall reputation
- Increase your brand awareness and attract prospects
- Generate high-quality leads
- Improve your organic ranking
By building strong relationships with bloggers we can work with thriving blogger communities and readerships to produce custom content with personality and impact.
Your campaigns will benefit from relevant blogger collaborations because they allow you to reach the right demographics, and expand your brand and influence consumer purchasing decisions as a result.
Bloggers are now a far more trusted source for product and service research than other online platforms. Blog posts are also highly valuable for buying decisions, and help you to keep track of how your brand is being represented in the digital space.
Jellyfish’s blogger outreach approach
We don’t just outreach to bloggers for one-off campaigns. Instead we’ve built a strong community of niche bloggers who we regularly engage with to reinforce the relationship.
We outreach to bloggers with opportunities in order to gain unique experiences, exclusive insights or reviews, always keeping their audiences in mind.
We ensure that both the bloggers and you mutually benefit from collaborations, and both your target audiences and consumers are kept at the core of our outreach activities. This ensures that we leverage the passion and expertise of both you and bloggers – not just your influence.
Digital PR
Digital PR helps you improve your online presence through building relationships with thought leaders, bloggers, content writers and online journalists in order to gain brand citations, press hits and high-quality backlinks.
Our digital PR approach is driven towards influencing communities, audiences and the media using online channels to boost your brand awareness, leading to increased sales and conversions. This tactic works particularly well if you are interested in improving your branded search and brand awareness.
Why is digital PR important?
The rise of online and social media channels has revolutionized the ways brands can engage with consumers. The internet has enabled two-way conversations, transformed consumer behavior and provided a platform for direct interactions with customers. Which means that it's more important than ever to get involved with the conversation so that consumers can relate to your brand, increasing trust and positioning your brand as an authoritative voice in your industry.
Our digital PR service also helps your SEO strategy through:
- Quality backlinks on a range of domains to enhance your website authority

- Increased organic listings

What does digital PR bring to the campaign?
Integrating digital PR into your campaign complements your content marketing, social media and SEO strategies. PR focuses not only on media relations but also how to enhance your communications and relationships with key stakeholders.
With the ever-changing landscape of consumer behavior, more people than ever before are going online to find out about a brand, what it offers and product reviews. Increased interaction with consumers online enables you to listen and react to conversations, engage with consumers, provide interesting content and build upon new avenues of visibility.
By adding PR to your campaign, you can humanize your brand and build its identity, ultimately reinforcing your key messages and generating greater awareness and trust over time. An active database of bloggers, content writers and journalists who are engaged with and writing about your brand is also a powerful tool for strengthening your reputation in the marketplace.

Our in-house experts can help you amplify your brand and cut through the online noise to position yourself as a leader in your industry, allowing you to create meaningful and long-lasting relationships with your consumers.
Link earning
Backlinks are still one of the most influential factors in SEO, but not all links are equal. It's important that your website attracts the right types of links, and for this, you need a well-formed link earning strategy.
We believe that a targeted content marketing plan should form the basis of your link acquisition strategy. Great content engages users and gives them a genuine reason to promote your brand online through backlinks and social shares.
The right content
Creating content that will resonate best with your target audience is not as simple as brainstorming a few ideas. Instead, it’s about investigating your target demographic and understanding, through research and technology, their interests, concerns and questions.
You need to know:
- What appeals to them
- Their frustrations
- How they use technology to consume content
- The factors that influence their decision-making process
- In most cases, a one-size-fits-all approach won’t work, and segmenting both your audience and your content will lead to greater engagement and success in attracting backlinks
Reaching your audience
Building relationships with journalists, bloggers, and key influencers helps get your brand and content amplified within the right communities across the web. There are a number of ways you can do this:
- Digital PR
- Blogger outreach
- Social amplification
- Native advertising
- Sponsored promotions
- Community management
Our outreach and amplification proposition is bolstered by a dedicated PR and community management team. This helps you with:
- Greater synergy between on and offline marketing and PR activity
- Better reach across trade and consumer press, digitally and offline
- More diverse relationships with key industry or niche influencers
- A purposeful and meaningful approach to sustainable, white-hat link acquisition
- Better brand visibility
Big content & gamification
Looking for ongoing results? The staying power of big content campaigns can drive sales, leads, engagement and reach over the long term.
What is big content?
Rather than scaling low-value strategies, sometimes it makes sense to invest in something bigger. Multichannel, big content campaigns, distinct from the usual blog posts, infographics, and videos, have staying power that can drive sales, leads, engagement and reach over the long term.
What is gamification?
Gamification is the application of game-like functions in order to promote awareness, engagement, and conversion. Useful, entertaining, interactive and engaging content in the form of apps, software and games can help you to naturally acquire authoritative links, social signals and engagement signals to help your visibility in search results.
It can also help users through all stages of the sales funnel - from awareness to consideration, and from purchase to retention and advocacy.
How can big content and gamification be used?
Engaging, useful or entertaining interactive content can be used to attract a self-selecting audience at a relatively low cost. Big content allows these users to engage with brands, products and services in a way that encourages engagement and conversion.
Take the Jellyfish Penalty Checker as an example. We’ve provided a free, useful tool for website owners to check their site’s SEO performance against Google’s algorithm updates. If users realize they have been the subject of a penalty they can find out more in our Google Penalty Hub and get in touch to find out more.
We are highly experienced in the development and promotion of digital content to fulfill a broad range of business and marketing objectives. We’ve worked with b2b and consumer brands in a number of different industries including finance, recruitment and travel.
