Summary: New brands can compete for visibility with AI-assisted content strategies, even in niche markets. By leveraging AI tools to create high-volume, optimized blog posts, a media network saw increased SERP visibility, impressions, and authority in search engines in just a few months. Explore the power of AI in content marketing for emerging businesses below.

Competing for organic traffic and impressions against more established brands? With the rise of zero-click search and Google machine learning, you have opportunities to get in front of people without ranking in top results. Publishing authoritative content with support from AI can put your brand in places that matter. See how Hurrdat helped a new media network grow with smart AI-assisted content marketing strategies.

Challenge: Organic Visibility as New Brand in Niche Market

Many startups find it difficult growing targeted brand recognition while competing against high authority websites in SERPs, but our client’s challenges also included a niche audience and limited resources. We needed to deliver a budget-friendly content strategy that would be scalable and impactful. Enter an AI-assisted content plan.

Solution: Create AI-Assisted Blog Posts at High Volume

We analyzed competitors, high-volume queries, and gaps in existing search content to identify underserved topics and keyword opportunities within our client’s niche.

Next, we mapped out a long-term content plan to maximize performance within their tight budget and small team. That content strategy prioritized Google E-E-A-T principals, all stages of the buyer’s journey, and high-volume output with sustainable pacing.

Then, our team utilized AI tools to draft outlines and blog posts. All were edited, fact-checked, and optimized for Google SGE, People Also Ask (PAA) results, and featured snippets by our human experts to boost overall SERP visibility.

Results: Increased SERP Visibility & Impressions

Over 16 months, Hurrdat published roughly 160 blog articles for this emerging media network. We also regularly monitored performance, updating content to reflect ranking changes and shifts in search results.
