Content Marketing Market: Key Drivers and Trends
Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The rise in the number of users on social media is notably driving the content marketing market growth, although factors such as fraud related to digital advertisements may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the content marketing industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Content Marketing Market Key Driver
One of the key factors driving growth in the content marketing market is the rise in the number of users on social media. Social media is becoming an essential part of the Internet, and it is accessed by more than a billion people worldwide. In addition, the increase in the use of mobile devices and smartphones has driven the use of social media among users. The growing use of social media among consumers is encouraging enterprises to use this platform to approach their target audience. As the number of users is continuously increasing, enterprises are using social media platforms for content marketing, which helps them to manage their large target audience more effectively. Thus, with the increase in the use of social media among consumers, the demand for content marketing is also expected to increase during the forecast period.
Content Marketing Market Key Trend
The use of AI with social media management software is another major factor supporting the content marketing market. The digital transformation of businesses is an effort aimed at creating connected platforms and industry revenue streams. Consequently, several industries are opting for real-time solutions besides spending on IT infrastructure and analytical solutions to gain a competitive advantage in the market. Modern businesses are marked by an increase in the need for advanced business intelligence (BI). Artificial intelligence (AI) has enabled content marketing with significant technological advances. AI provides a centralized view of all business activities and associated information.
Content automation is expected to drastically reduce the cost of content production.
Content Marketing Market Key Challenge
The fraud related to digital advertisements will be a major challenge for the content marketing market. Content advertisements through digital platforms are commonly considered as a form of advertisement that is done through the Internet to market products or services to consumers. With time, the term digital advertisements have expanded its dimensions. Furthermore, due to an increase in fraud-related digital advertisements, it is now treated as one of the major concerns for industry players. Fraud related to digital advertisements includes actions such as launching advertisements outside of a user’s view and creating fake advertisement traffic by using content scraping websites. The lack of maturity in the digital advertisement space helped in creating a favorable environment for digital advertisement fraud. Hence, fraud related to digital advertisements will impact the revenue generated by enterprises, thus impacting the market growth.
This content marketing market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2021-2025.
