Newsjacking is the optimal way to do this. Look for opportunities to write a blog post, create social media posts, and generate press coverage to attract relevant, qualified leads that turn into sales.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most effective ways to do this by piggybacking on trending topics and articles \u2013 that\u2019s what newsjacking is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">News breaks every second of every minute of every day. You don\u2019t even need to pick up your phone to get the news, you get a notification instantly when something happens. A big story within your industry or niche is the perfect trending topic to create content around. It\u2019s relevant; it\u2019s what people are going to be searching for, and it will attract high-quality relevant leads to your site.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So What Is Newsjacking?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Newsjacking happens all the time, especially on social media \u2013 Twitter in particular. It was popularised by marketer David Meerman Scott and involves producing content relevant to the big news stories of the day. When a news alert occurs, ask yourself how you can harness the vast media attention on a topic and turn it into brand awareness of your products and services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Newsjacking presents a unique opportunity for businesses to ride the media coverage of a popular story to benefit your company\u2019s marketing strategy. The concept of newsjacking relies on a fast news cycle. The amount of media attention a news item gets dwindles over time; the faster you can pounce on an emerging story, the bigger benefits your business will see.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Successful newsjacking doesn\u2019t have to be difficult. With the right strategy, content production team, and social channels, you can have an immediate impact with relatively little effort. Producing high-quality content that is relevant to emerging news items can help your website capture the traffic of trending keywords and search queries and a slice of the social media buzz that\u2019s been created.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Benefits Of Newsjacking<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Successful newsjacking has the potential to generate qualified traffic to your website as long as you focus on the right topic. Marketers can expand the reach of their business\u2019s online presence by establishing industry authority by producing relevant content. Attaching your brand to trending topics increases exposure and shows your knowledge on topics within your industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason big news items are valuable to newsjack is that people are interested in them. People want to read, discuss, and learn about the trending topics of the day. Producing relevant content that captures the current zeitgeist opens up a conversation. When that conversation involves sharing your content, discussing it on social media, and engaging with your website, this can be very beneficial to your business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Newsjack<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>Set Up Alerts<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Successful newsjacking needs to be done fast. Often, to gain the biggest bounce from a trending topic, you need to publish content as its search volume and media attention are rising \u2013 not at peak of the topic\u2019s interest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monitor the news. You can do this passively using tools that alert you to breaking news. This way is more effective and easier long-term. Monitor social media, industry news outlets, and mainstream media feeds for trending topics to produce content on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Research Your Topic<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When news breaks, read about the topic. Fact check it and confirm everything is 100% factually accurate. Fake news is extremely prevalent right now, attaching your brand to an untrue story will be damaging to your business\u2019s reputation. Ensure the news source is genuine before even thinking about creating content around the topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read the content that\u2019s already produced around the news item. Research isn\u2019t only to learn about the topic but to ensure you create original content that\u2019s relevant and credible. You should also check the keyword search volume to see if the news item is worth producing content on.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Create Relevant Content Fast<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019re sure the trending topic can benefit your business, create relevant content fast. To ride the wave of a popular topic as more and more people are searching for it, you need to create and publish content as quickly as possible. While making sure you\u2019re including the relevant information that your users want to know.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Make It Unique<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most important aspects to consider is to differentiate your content. When you&#8217;re newsjacking, you need to add something to the conversation. That\u2019s how you will expand your brand\u2019s reach and increase awareness of your business. Add uniqueness to your content and contribute your knowledge to the topic to attract people to your business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Newsjacking doesn\u2019t have to be serious, often it\u2019s comedic content that travels the fastest and to a broad audience. Look at memes on social media and viral Twitter threads, the reason they\u2019re so popular is that people find them funny and connect to their message.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Publish &amp; Promote<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve created content, you need to let interested people know about it. Promote the blog posts, articles, or other forms of content on your business\u2019s social channels. When you\u2019re writing an article ensure the relevant keywords are used throughout the content so it shows up with trending search queries. Hashtags are also hugely influential on Twitter and can be the difference between content reaching an audience and being buried under a sea of other brands.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Risks Of Newsjacking<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While newsjacking can be so valuable to your organisation, it has to be implemented effectively. You have to hop on the right trending topic. The news item has to be relevant to your business; otherwise, you won\u2019t attract the right interested people to your website &#8211; the leads most likely to convert into customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The news story has to be relevant to your industry, even if it\u2019s only slightly related. For example, when Google rolls out a core algorithm update, we produce content around this event. December was the last time Google rolled out an update and we produced a blog on what <\/span><a href=\"\/marketing-insights-news\/google-dec-2020-core-update\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lessons marketers could learn<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The aim was to provide relevant content that was informative to the reader on a trending topic to attract interested people to our website.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jumping on the wrong topic is also a risk. Attracting people who aren\u2019t interested in your content could harm your brand awareness. It\u2019s advisable to avoid creating content based around sensitive topics such as politics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aligning your company with a certain stance could alienate customers who have differing opinions and values. Businesses should be neutral and present an unbiased view of a situation. Creating ill-informed or rushed content may also appear as if your business is jumping on the bandwagon of media coverage, which could lead to a negative impact on your brand\u2019s reputation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the strategy poses risks if you don\u2019t publish content on a topic fast enough. Being slow to react, appearing behind the news cycle, may make your company look behind the curve. In this scenario, newsjacking does more harm than good.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Should You Be Newsjacking?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether or not newsjacking is the right tactic for your business is dependent on your circumstances and objectives. It requires marketers to be on the ball with emerging news items; noticing them and creating content around them. While this can be done effectively using a tool, newsjacking still takes time to produce content. It also needs to be completed quickly to catch the wave of interest in a trending topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This strategy might not be appropriate for every business; however, if you can implement it effectively, successful newsjacking has a wide range of benefits for a variety of industries. It does require a marketer to be constantly on the ball with trends and able to produce content almost at the drop of a hat.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How Can We Help?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Newsjacking should be an element of a broad content plan within an <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">inbound marketing<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> strategy.
