“Her six-person team – consisting of three content managers, one video producer, an operations manager, and a writer – publish 10 to 15 content assets per week. In addition to boosting traffic, they’re responsible for increasing job searches from entries initiated from a content page by 18 percent, and boosting new accounts created from content pages by 116 percent.
“How do they do it?
“With a little help from a formula Magnarelli developed, called ‘How Now Wow,” which breaks down content into three categories: utility, news, and highly shareable and entertaining.
