Content Marketing 10 years ago

Social networks have been an essential part of Content Marketing since they have marked a before and after. In the past, when there was only the Internet but did not use social networks, they functioned as communication or connection between people. When created on Facebook, photos with text began to be implemented to communicate, used gifs to give movement to the pages to interest the readers, and it did not go beyond that.

In 2010, Content Marketing focused on how people bought a product and why, so it began to create explanatory content on the use of objects, focusing on search engines such as Google.

Evolution

Once Facebook and other social networks were invented, content marketing changed since it was not focused on search engines, but on "passive" content since the information reaches people in the feed and they do not search for it. In addition, sharing information with friends made it easier to create a brand or company known.

All this led to eye-catching and creative content that could spread more easily through social networks.

Currently, Content Marketing is used organically (without paid advertising) and non-organic in a balanced way. People buy those products or visit those places using "influencers" or people with many followers who influence them by mentioning an object or brand, site or restaurant, etc.

Many people don't watch TV as they used to, don't listen to the radio for hours at a time, and even fewer people see advertising on the street. So Content Marketing, based on social networks, websites, and other digital elements, had to adapt to mobile devices.

A current example of Content Marketing is the case of Airbnb, which had a before and after change in content strategies.

All this has and will continue to have the task of acquiring customer data for companies to obtain leads and thus generate strategies that will result in revenue.

Since becoming part of people's lives, content marketing has become a fundamental element for brands and commerce. With digitalization, it has adapted incredibly, so much so that it has become part of the regularity of individual's daily lives. It will continue to change and adapt constantly.
