13 Sep What Is Interactive Content and Why Does It Out-Convert Traditional Content Every Time?

Interactive content is dynamic and makes your content come alive as if you were having a face-to-face conversation or dialogue with your prospect or customer. Plus, your content stands in for you so you don’t have to be present. Not only are your time, money, and resources freed up but you can scale your communications and content consumption since you can embed your interactive content on as many sites and pages as you want.

Content is no longer content as we know it. Content is as much the interactivity you add to it as it is the basic content you would normally create without adding the interactivity.

Technically, interactive content is a browser-based digital  experience designed for visitor participation (interaction). It’s designed to be something that your audience engages with rather than solely to read or watch.

Think about some of the most common content marketing tactics we all are very familiar with such as articles, blogs, white papers,  webinars, research papers, case studies and videos.  Your consumption is either read (or watch), or don’t.

An interactive content experience is intended to be a two-way exchange. It often includes a feedback loop in which the outcome of the experience is directly impacted by the interaction of the user with the content itself.

So what are the forms of specific one-on-one personalized experiences we are talking about?

    • Quizzes
    • Polls
    • Assessments
    • Surveys
    • Interactive images
    • Interactive videos
    • Interactive maps
    • Interactive floor plans

Your content is the conduit by which you drive  engagement, affinity, leads and sales.  You can and should use interactive content experiences to bridge the gap.
