However, this shall not stop you from scaling your content. Content repurposing is a genius concept which allows you to distribute content across multiple platforms, so you do not have to create content from scratch every time. • In this blog post, we will discuss what is content repurposing and the best practices for achieving content repurposing to grow your blog.
What is the Concept Behind Content Repurposing? • Repurposing content, also known as recycling content, is the method of reusing all of your existing content or elements of your existing content relevant for various publishing platforms. In this practice, content is repurposed and transformed into a new format according to the requirements of the publishing platform or goal of publishing. For example, if you want to repurpose your blog content, you can use some chunks of the blog content to create an infographic, video, webinar or social media post.
Benefits of Content Repurposing • Content repurposing has tons of benefits. The top benefit is that it is much easier to repurpose content for scaling than creating content from scratch. Thus, you do not need to create a fresh new post every time. You can use the basic content framework to shoot a new video, create an infographic or launch a webinar for your audience. • Benefits of Content RepurposingHere are some of the top benefits of content repurposing:
Sustainable SEO Boost • Creating multiple content pieces that offer insightful and helpful information around the same topic helps in generating authority among your audience. Moreover, it helps you accurately target and dominate a desired keyword for SEO boost. Thus, your repurposed content can not only generate website traffic from your secondary traffic sources like social media. In fact, it can generate website traffic directly from SERPs. • Connecting with New Audience • Content repurposing allows you to tap into new kinds of audience. Your existing, single blog post on a topic might be able to generate interest among a specific audience. However, content repurposing allows you to reach and connect with target audiences spread across social media platforms, streaming platforms and visual platforms as well.
Homogenize and Reinforce Your Message • Achieving homogeneity in your content during scaling is a big challenge. You have to make sure that your message resounds the same across all platforms while also keeping the respective audience’s interest in view. Similarly, Marketing’s Rule 7 also indicates that your customers must come across your brand message at least 7 times before they make a purchase decision. Content repurposing helps you homogenize and re-circulate your message so more and more people can view it multiple times.

Therefore, when people read your content, they will regard you as an expert on the subject matter.
Write on Evergreen Topics • Evergreen topics help you stay in the reader’s view for a long time. It is recommended to find evergreen content topics for your repurposing content on your website. For example, instead of writing about new product launches, you can shift your content creation focus on educating the product owners on how to maintain their product. The educational and informative type of content is usually evergreen content as it stays helpful no matter what type of new advancements are made in new launches. • Publish New Blog Posts • Another great content repurposing tool in your arsenal is to publish new blog posts and articles. For example, you can create a listicle article and then extend on each of the categories of the listicle as separate blog posts. This branching away approach of content series allows you to repurpose your content for better niche authority and higher traffic reach. Once you are done with entries of the series content, you can create a summary post and ask for new blog series recommendations from your audience.
Go Visual with Presentations and Graphics • Content repurposing helps you in creating a presentation, actionable advice, quotes, effective slides and more. Thus, these things make your content look more presentable so your audience can easily read the gist of it. You can use content repurposing software like photo editors such as CANVA to create infographics, posts, presentations, and more according to your needs. Moreover, you can create instructographic and instructional visuals for reposting content on Quora or Reddit. • Review, Polish and Repost Old Posts • This is one of the oldest and most popular practices in content repurposing. If you have previously written content about how to alleviate anxiety, you can revisit the same old post and introduce new information about recent advancements in anxiety diagnosis, treatment, and management. It helps in fact-checking as well as in improving your content quality. Similarly, you can also reshare the improved posts or existing posts on social media with some new twists.
Write eBooks, Shoot Videos and Hold Webinars • Creating an eBook allows you to repurpose your content in more detail and insight. It is a great way to create an additional revenue stream. • When you organize webinars, you can use chunks of the session to use as videos to repost on your social media or blog posts.
