Note also a slight decrease in videos but also the appearance of live streaming content at 30% usage rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s clear that the rise of the use of virtuality in B2B content marketing is being confirmed! And as the vast majority of experts say, this is a trend that will continue in marketing beyond COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier in this post, I inserted a graph on the preferred marketing communication channels in B2B marketing. In opposition to the content themselves.

This would be the average length for your post to end up on page 1 on Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calculation of words is very different from what I have already advised in one of my posts in 2017:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/exob2b.com\/en\/can-you-spend-4-minutes-reading-this-post\/\">\u201cThe ideal length would be 1600 words, but it is specified that the best SEO results would come from even longer blogs, up to 2500 words. The average reader reads 300 words per minute, so a 1600-word blog takes just over 5 minutes to read. 5 minutes!!! It\u2019s an eternity compared to the 15 seconds\u2026\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, we can conclude that the posts produced in 2021 are longer than before. And that means length, writing time and reading. Four hours of research, reading, writing, referencing and optimization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>About an hour and a half longer on average than in 2014. But I&#8217;m not going to tell you about 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/backlinko.com\/b2b-marketing-stats#b2b-content-marketing-statistics\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"516\" src=\"https:\/\/exob2b.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/orbit-1024x516.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/exob2b.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/orbit-1024x516.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/exob2b.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/orbit-300x151.jpg 300w, https:\/\/exob2b.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/orbit-768x387.jpg 768w, https:\/\/exob2b.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/orbit.jpg 1450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Source : cliquez sur l&#8217;image<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any questions or comments, or you would like to share your experiences of marketing content in B2B with us, write to us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/exob2b.com\/contact\/\">We like to share!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Based on B2B Content Marketing, benchmarks, budgets and trends 2021 statistics,it is clear that the effects of COVID-19 have affected content marketing in 2020 and continue to do so this year.
