How Content Teams Use Conductor to Reach a Wider Audience
Conductor helps content teams maximize visibility by integrating SEO into every stage—research, production, and reporting. Identify high-value topics, optimize content with real-time guidance, and track performance to drive sustainable traffic.
Creating great content is no small feat—teams brainstorm, research, design, brand, edit, and optimize tirelessly. But after a brief burst of traffic from distribution efforts, it often fizzles out. Without constant promotion, it’s like shouting into the void.
Sound familiar? Short traffic spikes can’t sustain a winning strategy. On the other hand, if just a single piece of content ranks well in organic search, over time, it could drive exponentially more value than an entire year’s worth of new content.
Content teams are already crafting amazing content. They just need to ensure their audience actually finds it. And that’s where Conductor Intelligence comes in.

By baking SEO insights into critical stages of the content creation process, they’re able to maximize their visibility in organic search from the get-go and drive more relevant, sustainable traffic.

- Content Reporting to measure content’s organic impact

Content Research & Ideation
Many content teams have clear ideas on general topics they need to cover throughout the year but are often less clear on how to approach each topic in a meaningful way to provide value to their audience. And that’s where keywordKeyword
A keyword is what users write into a search engine when they want to find something specific.
Learn more insights can make all the difference—because understanding how people are searching (which are essentially the questions being asked) points to which answers the content should provide.
Conductor’s Explorer feature acts as a portal to the largest global keyword index in the industry. This means content teams have access to invaluable data that helps them better understand their customers and uncover topics worth targeting.
Put in any topic and get instant insights about the size and characteristics of the audience searching for it—from both a search and social data perspective. Apply flexible filtering on an expansive list of related keywords to shed light on associated topics and customer preferences. And identify the audience’s top-of-mind questions with one click using Explorer’s “Question Keywords” and “People also ask” features.
These insights not only make it easier to hone the focus of a content piece but also provide assurance that the content produced will be truly relevant to readers.
