Content is nothing but the major ingredient of the food named 'products and services'. Unless and until you are presenting a unique, catchy content with relevant keywords it is hard for you to stick in this competitive digital market. Being a startup, you must be having at least a handful of time in the beginning. Make a good use of that time to bring out engrossing content for your readers. But make sure your content doesn't aim to sell. Rather it should be presented in such a way that your readers feel the existence of your products or services and eventually get gravitated to your website. Remember, a good content has the strength to build trust and gain the reliability of the audience – which is the primary step to convert a visitor to a customer.

Residing in a digital era, you must have seen that there is a strong correlation between content and inbound. The moment you stop posting or updating your profile on social networking sites, you will feel isolated from the global world. More the posts, more the likes, more the notifications and certainly more promotions.
