First off, I should state that there’s really no such thing as a site collection template. What happens when a new site collection is created is that the collection gets created, and then a web template is applied to the root site. This whole process is actually decoupled in SharePoint 2010, and you no longer need to select a template when the site collection is created (). Todd has a very clever solution to getting your web template to be used at the root site, but I recently had a requirement to have it fully automated, and to be visible to the templates available when creating a site collection in Central admin. This was relatively straightforward in SharePoint 2007, you would save a particular site as a template, then go to the template gallery, download it to the file system on a front end server, and then to have it added to the Site definitions list. However, in SharePoint 2010, site templates are no longer.STP files,they use.WSP solutions in the user solution gallery. That should be easy,right? Just save off the WSP file, add the solution to the farm with either PowerShell or STSADM. The solution will actually install, but your site template won’t show up. The main reason is that the actual web template is scoped to “web” and for it to show up for site collections, it needs to be scoped for the farm. The good news is that you can import a WSP file directly into Visual Studio 2010, edit it, and create a new solution that does work. I will now attempt to describe the relevant steps, and a few gotchas to do this. Save The Site as a Template Once you have your site looking and behaving the way that you want, it’s time to save it off. Select Site Settings, and click Save Site As Template – It’s under the Site Actions section. Give the template a file name, name, and if desired, a description. Once you select OK, the solution will be created and saved to the solution gallery, which is at the root of the site collection. You’ll want to go there next, and you can do so by clicking on the “solution gallery” link in the successful save confirmation page, or by navigating to the root of the site collection, then selecting Site Actions – Site Settings and clicking on the Solutions Gallery link. There is no more Site Template Gallery!!! Save the WSP File Locally From the solutions gallery, Click the name of your solution, and you will be prompted to save the wsp file. ![]() Make sure the URL you choose to deploy the solution to actually points to an existing SharePoint site on the machine you are working on. RIght-click on the project name in the solution explorer and select Add > New Item. Now open up the ONET.xml file to clean it up. Now go back to Site Actions and choose New Site. Apr 25, 2011 Web Templates are introduced in SharePoint 2010 mainly to define site definition as sandboxed solutions. You can create a web template in following manner. How can I create a custom web template in Visual Studio? See here some requirements: I dont want to create a site definition! I dont want to import a saved template. 50 rows SharePoint 2010: Default Site Templates. What is a SharePoint site. Go ahead and do that, and then you need to delete the template from the gallery. You’ll be ultimately registering it in the farm, and you don’t need any confusion as to which template to choose. As well, if you’ll be using the same name, this will lead to conflicts, so it’s best to eliminate it altogether. Create a Project in Visual Studio Open Visual Studio and create a new project. Make sure that you have the SharePoint 2010 Templates showing, and then select the “Import SharePoint Solution Package” template. From the next screen select “Deploy As a Farm Solution”, and click Next. Next, click Browse and navigate to the WSP file downloaded in 2. Finally, ensure that all of the included items are selected, and select Finish. Visual Studio will then import all of the items into the project. Now we’re ready to modify the project. Modify The Feature Definitions There will typically be 4 Features created for a site template, aptly named Feature1 through Feature 4. Personally, I like my feature names to be a little more descriptive than that. Feature 1 is for List Instances, Feature 2 is for Modules, Feature 3 is for the template itself, and Feature 4 is for the PropertyBag. The purpose of our solution is to make the site template available, and the other features are effectively there in a supporting role. Currently, all 4 features are scoped to web, and all 4 are visible. In addition to renaming them, we want to hide features 1,2, and 4 from display, and we want to scope feature 3 to the farm. First, we’ll modify the Feature name. Simply Single Click (or right click and rename) on the Feature in the Visual Studio Solution Explorer, and enter a new name. ![]() You’ll notice that all of the supporting elements below are automatically renamed as well. Next, We’ll want to modify the Title of the features. The title is what is used when the feature is displayed in the feature list. Although we’ll be hiding 3 of them, it’s still a good idea to use a descriptive title. Double click on the feature, and the Feature Definition box will open in the main window. Modify the Title, and if desired the Description field to something meaningful to your users. Go ahead and repeat this step for all of the 4 features With the feature definition in the main window, the feature properties should be loaded in the properties toolbox (if you don’t have it open, open it). We want to set the Is Hidden property to true for all of the features except for the Web Template feature itself (Feature 3). The web template feature itself requires an additional modification, we need to change the scope from site to farm. We can do this in either the properties window or the feature definition window, but the feature definition window is a little more obvious. Modify the Template Definition Itself. This step may not be required if the template name and title will be identical to that which was saved initially. However, in this case, we have called the solution Sample 1, and when the template was saved, it was MyCustomSite. We need to modify the template itself to be called Sample 1, and we may have some additional tweaks. From the Solution Explorer, open the Web Templates Folder and change the name of the Template by single, or right clicking on it. The feature definitions will be updated automatically. Next, we need to open the Elements.xml file, and change the Name and the Title tag to the new name. Search and replace is a good idea here. Next, open the ONet.xml and change the Title attribute in the Project tag to an appropriate value, in this case, Sample 1. This file can also be used to remove any feature dependencies that may not exist in the destination farm, but be careful – other elements of your template may be reliant on them. Test the Project Click on the Debug start button in Visual Studio and your template will be deployed to the server, and you’ll be prompted to create a new subsite. If you see your template in the custom tab, all is well. Go ahead and create a test site to make sure that everything is working. Visual studio may prompt you with deployment conflicts, just let it go ahead and resolve them automatically. Deploy the Solution We are now ready to deploy the solution to the farm. First, set Visual Studio to Release mode from the toolbar: Then, Right Click on the project, and select Package Then, you’ll need to navigate to your Visual Studio project folder, and then into the BINRelease folder. There you will find a.WSP file with the name of your project. You can either work with the file in place, or copy it to a folder, but next we will add the project to the Farm solution gallery. To do this, we will either use STSADM (old school) or PowerShell (the cool new way). I’m old, so I still use STSADM for solutions, but I’ll show both. To add the solution using stsadm.exe, open up a command prompt (in administrator mode if UAC is turned on), and navigate to the folder containing the solution file. The syntax is: C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedWeb Server Extensions14BINstsadm.exe –o addsolution –filename sample1.wsp Where sample1.wsp is the name of your solution file. To use PowerShell, open the SharePoint 2010 Management Shell, and enter: add-SPsolution –LiteralPath c:solutionssample1.wsp The argument for LiteralPath is the complete path to the solution file. If there are and spaces in the path name, it needs to be encased in quotes. Deploy the Solution Now that the solution has been added, it needs to be deployed. To do so, start central admin, Go to System Settings, and select Manage farm solutions in the Farm Management Section: Click on your solution name, and then click the Deploy Solution button. Click the OK button on the following screen, and your solution will be deployed. You can control whether or not the template is available by turning off the farm feature. You can do that from central admin by navigating to System Settings – Manage Farm Features. From here, you can turn your template on and off. Create New Site Collection At this point, we should be good to go. From Central Administration, navigate to Application Management, and click Create Site Collections. On the create screen, give the new collection a title, and a URL. Then, in the Template Selection, click the Custom tab, and your template should appear there. Give it a site collection administrator, and click OK. After a few moments, the site will be created, and you can navigate to it. Simple, right? Well, Microsoft giveth and Microsoft taketh away. Adding the template to the farm is considerably more involved with 2010 than with 2007. However this approach is also a great deal more flexible – you can tweak that template to your heart’s content, and if you have ever tried to create a site template with 2007 using Visual Studio, you can really appreciate how Visual Studio 2010 makes it significantly easier. 31 thoughts on “ How to Build a Site Collection Template from A Web Template in SharePoint 2010” • Brad Covell Thanks, Excellent. Exactly what I wanted to do and it works. Question: when I debug it or deploy it from Visual Studio I get a message about deployment conflicts, I automatically have VS resolve them but the deployment and/or debug fails and I””m asked to continue, if I continue to debug it works fine. Do I need to be concerned about these deployment conflicts? What is happening? When I package and deploy, it works great. • Pingback: • Sandra Hi, i have site collections (blank template) that use default.aspx for the home page. For new site collections i wanted to use custom site template and i created one like you described. The problem occured when i deployed my solution – all the default.aspx from my existing site collections got replaced with the one from solution. I created my custom site template from blank template and team template, but in both cases the results were the same. Is this the expected behavior? Because of my branding i have to have custom default.aspx. • Pingback: • Marco I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but this example simply is not working for me. During deployment I’m getting conflicts, chosing to resolve them automatically and this step fails. I have tried the simplest configuration: I’ve saved Team Site as a template, saved.wsp to file, deactivated and removed it, loaded into VS with success (and no errors) – and tried to deploy to another web application. Got conflicts, tried to resolve them automatically – got many messages in output window: “can not delete file” for many conflicted files. And deploy failed. Any help I appreciate very much. One of my coworkers,, recently asked me if it was possible to create a new Site Collection in SharePoint 2010 and use a custom site template for it. I'm usually more of a server and infrastructure guy, but this made me curious. In SharePoint 2007 site (really web) templates were saved as.STP files. Those STP files could be in the site collection gallery, or the farm gallery. If it was in the farm gallery then it was available at site collection creation. In SharePoint 2010 site (really web) templates are stored as user solutions in the site collection solution store as WSP files. Those WSP files don't upload at the farm level (at least not that I've been able to find). So how does one create a new site collection with a custom template? Stick around, we're going to find out. J The first thing to keep in mind is that site collections don't have templates, webs do. When a new site collection is created there is a template picker. That doesn't apply a template to the site collection itself, but to the rootweb of that site collection. When the site collection is created, the rootweb is also created. That is where the template is applied. Knowing that, we can figure out a solution. We know that the site collection gets created, with or without a template. If the site collection is created, then so is its solution gallery. If we upload our WSP to that solution gallery, then it's available to us when we create the rootweb. That's how we create a site collection with a custom template. Here's the blow-by-blow on how to do it. First we'll save out our site (really web) template. Start by going to the site you want to save as a template. Then go to Site Actions > Site Settings. It will look like this: When you click 'Save site as template' you see this screen (though it won't be filled out, you have to do that) If things go well, you'll get this screen. Click the link to go to the Solution Gallery. That should take you to this page: Click the name of the template you created. You'll be greated with this dialog to save it to your local file system: Now go into Central Administration and create the Site Collection (Application Management > Create site collections) you want to apply this template to. On the creation page go to the custom template page like below: The secret sauce is not selecting a template for the rootweb. When the site collection is created, you'll be given a link to it. When you click it you'll be taken to the template picker page, if you hit it as one of the site collection administrators. At the bottom is a link to your newly created site collection's solution gallery. Upload the template solution here: Don't forget to activate it. When you're back to the solution gallery use the breadcrumb to get back to the rootweb of the Site Collection: That will take you back to the template picker page. Now on the Custom tab we have our template. That's all there is to it.

The photographer interface is great and easy to use. But the client galleries are supremely unintuitive. I spend more time walking people through how to register, favorite and download images. Most of my clients use mobile devices. They end up sending me screen caps because the mobile web site sucks and the mobile apps are a joke. If 50% or more of my clients can't figure it out without a self-authored tutorial, something is really wrong with the user interface. You have to simplify this, I have no free time left to continue being a software trainer for Zenfolio or to try to match mobile screen caps without the file names included to the original images.

If someone is looking at my website using a MAC they will see the font, but not other platform will show it, the font is overridden.

The relationship can with either be short term or long term. Short term can be less than a year and long term usually is more than a year. Such distinction is necessary before drafting an agreement because such ambiguities can result in stringent consequences for both of the parties involved. Affiliate program agreement takes place between a party that is interested in offering its services to any other party. The party offering its services to the other one is called as affiliate of the other. Affiliate agrees to offer its services in return of commission. Such amount of commission is set and decided beforehand to avoid any confusion. Affiliate program agreements can be of different kinds whereby affiliate can connect with the company in various ways. Usually websites are promoted in this way. Whereby affiliates put a link on their website of the company’s website. In this way all visitors of affiliate website are redirected to the company’s website. This tactic is considered useful in marketing the products and services offered by the company to a larger audience. As more and more sales are generated, more revenue is collected by the company and hence it becomes easier for the company to pay commission to the affiliate. Both parties enjoy the fruit of their efforts as a win-win situation is created. But a written agreement is something that guides the framework of relationship between two parties. Because verbal agreements are done in air and can be vanished without leaving any evidence. So a properly written agreement is mandatory for any kind of business growth and success. Nowadays businesses adopt number of techniques to market their products and spur their sales. Some companies enter into international operations by expanding geographically and some while operating domestically widen their reach. This happens by marketing their product in various markets and environments. And affiliate program is also considered as one of the source to achieve such competitive edge over other competitors. More you have affiliates, greater is your outreach to wider audiences. This not only gives the company an edge over its competitors but also develops a trust among its customers of its operations. Companies can use wide variety of tools simultaneously to achieve high growth rate. And affiliates provide the companies with an opportunity to expand into larger market with bearing only minimal cost. The commission is paid out of the sales generated through the use of affiliate’s website. And as no cost is incurred in such arrangement so giving out commission can be perceived as the only cost during the whole process. Internet is crowded with the sample affiliate program agreements. Assistance can be taken from such samples while drafting the agreement. The use of generic terms and conditions in such samples can be customized as per requirements of the parties. Legal assistance is also mandatory as that can be helpful in avoiding ambiguities down the road.

These templates are invaluable for finding the right structure for the type of content you're creating. Why is this important? Because when it comes to communicating your ideas, the way you organize and present them is as important as your ability to put them into words. In most cases, one of these templates will suffice. What's more, these templates work for video and audio content as well as written. So each time you begin a project — no matter what type of content it is — after gathering research and developing your ideas, review these templates to find the best structure for your particular message. Then all you have to do is plug in your ideas and develop each section. What are the 12 structures? • • • • • • • • • • • • For short content, you can use one of these formats as you see them here. For longer content, you may mix and match them. For instance, your overall project may be a thought leadership piece, but individual chapters may use other formats, such as how-to, case study, or interview. When it comes to content creation, variety adds to the overall impact of your content. So don't settle for just one or two. Try different formats. And enjoy the creative process. Let's take a look at each of them now. Example Sometimes the point you want to make is simple enough to express in your introduction. The real value is in the examples you provide, showing your readers how other people have applied the information you share. When that's the case, try an example post. Readers love this type of article because they can see many examples in one place, without having to do the research themselves. Title it right The title often includes a number, such as 10 ways to show your inner geek, or 5 types of tiles you'll love in your kitchen. In the article, you can number your examples or not. It's up to you. So how do you structure an example post? • Introduce your topic Tell people what you're talking about and why they'll be interested in it. • Give an example The subhead may be the product name, as in this example from Houzz.com. Or it could be a method or concept. This one, from Mashable, gives a general idea, followed by a specific resource: Pictures aren't necessary in the Example format, but if your example is visual, pictures can help clarify your points. • Evaluate it After you give an example, talk about it. Include a few sentences about why you like it (or don't like it), why it works, or how your readers can get it. • Repeat with remaining examples Follow the same format for all your examples. There is no right number of examples to use. We've seen posts that focused on two examples, and we've seen posts that give 20 or more. In general, in short-form content, the fewer examples you provide, the longer (or more detailed) your evaluation. In long-form content, you have the space to provide a lot of examples and in-depth evaluation. • Conclusion/call to action Many example posts leave this off. But you can make your content stand out if you'll wrap it up for your readers. End your article with: • A summary of the examples you've shown. • Your opinion. • Advice to your readers. • A question. Then include your call to action. Ask for comments or social shares. Or tell people to visit another page on your website. Point-Illustration-Explanation (PIE) This type of content is very similar to the Example post above. But in this type of content, you aren't simply sharing examples of your point. You're making statements about your topic. Each section provides another point, which is then illustrated and discussed. A good example of this type of post is 5 Essential Qualities of Irresistible Product Descriptions, which you can find. • Introduce your topic Tell people what your topic is and why it matters. • Make your first point about your topic. Try to find a quick and easy way to summarize your point. This summary statement will be your subhead. If you like, number your points. This particular post draws examples from different brands advertising online. So it includes the source at the end of the point. • Illustrate it. If you have an image, include it under your subhead. This example makes a point about product descriptions, so the illustration is words, not a graphic. Simply take a screen shot of your example and post it as your illustration. • If you use a screenshot of words, check readability before you publish. If the words in your illustration aren't readable, forget the screen shot. Quote your source instead. • For screen shots, you can use Microsoft's Accessory, 'Snipping Tool.' Or use SnagIt, by TechSmith, which is available for PCs and Macs. You can find it at • Explain it. Include a paragraph or two that expand on your point. Give an explanation. Then give a practical tip on how your readers can implement it. • Repeat with remaining PIE sections. Follow this same format for all your points. • Conclusion/call to action This type of article needs a strong close. So make sure you tell your readers why your topic is important and what it means in their own lives. • Promise more information. • Make a forecast. • If at all possible, take your point one step further. Then, as always, give a call to action. Thought leadership (syllogism) If you want to share a new idea, one of the best ways to get people on board is to create a logical argument that leads people to arrive at the same conclusion you have. With this type of post, you don't start with your main point. You start with something your readers already know and accept. Then you build on that idea using the logical framework of a syllogism. If your first point (A) means this (B). And if this (B) means that (C), then you must consider that as a real possibility. The example below is by from the article, Marketing Has Changed. Are You Keeping Up and is available at • Intro With this type of content, you want to start with something engaging. Perhaps a story, an interesting thought, or a startling statement. • If A = B Begin your first section with a topic or idea that your readers already accept. Then tie it to your second idea. Use research, stories, or logic to make a strong connection and back up your ideas. • And B = C In the next section, take your idea one step further. Tie it to your main point. Make it a natural progression of your opening idea. • Then A = C Now make your final point. Make it clear that this is a logical extension of the known fact (A) that you started with. If possible, use research or a story to support your statements. • Additional points You may need some additional discussion to bring home your final point. Now that you're on topic, you can add those thoughts here. • Conclusion/call to action Give a strong conclusion. You now have your readers thinking. Give them something to chew on. Then give your call to action. It's a good idea to ask for comments after this type of post. Then take the time to respond. People are more likely to engage with you if they know you'll answer their comments. You may recognize this as the standard format used by journalists over the last century. It was developed when writers delivered their stories via telegraph. And it was ideally suited to print because the main idea was given in the first paragraph of a story — which meant an editor could cut an article to fit whatever space was available. But those days are over. We now live in a digital world. We send messages via email, not telegraph. We publish digital books and magazines, which have no paper-size restrictions. This format is losing its popularity, but it's still an accepted structure for news-style articles. So if you're writing a press release or news announcement, this may be a good option for you. A classic example by Honeywell is at • The Lead The traditional inverted pyramid press release starts out with all the facts: who, what, where, when, why and how. If you're writing for a news service, include this information in your first sentence or two. If you're writing for a blog, jazz it up a bit. Give the information, but make it interesting. Lead with an unusual fact or statistic. Then give all the required information. • Second most important information The inverted pyramid is aptly named. Each successive paragraph gives information that's less relevant to the overall point. So tell your story from most important facts to least important. You can keep the middle of the article interesting by introducing a bit of story, a specific example, or interesting news relevant to the story. • Quote to back up your claims Include quotes from your key sources. • Presentation of facts in dwindling level of importance As you near the end of the article, your story will dwindle. That's because most of the important information was told in the beginning. You will feel like your article closes with minor facts and story bits. Keep the interest level high by sharing an interesting quote or a concluding thought that is inspired by your news. • Boilerplate close/call to action Most press releases end with a 'boilerplate,' or short paragraph about the company or brand being written about. Traditionally, the call to action is a link to your website or landing page. An interview is viewed as a high-value piece of content. That's because it shares inside information that most people don't have access to. Most interviews these days include audio or video as well as the written transcript. But you can still publish a written interview without media. Format it in whatever way suits you and your readers. Do be aware, though, that just posting a video or audio file doesn't optimize your content page. So even if you opt for a video or podcast, add written content to go with your media. A few examples of how content marketers are publishing interviews • As a media post This interview, available on Jeff Goins's website, is formatted as a media post. (That structure is outlined below.) You can find it here: Goins gives a short intro with a picture of the interviewee, then gives the link to an MP3 file. Below that are highlights from the interview and memorable quotes. • In written format. When 'writing' an interview, You can approach it different ways. Highlight the name of the interviewer and the interviewee, with their comments following. Interviewer: Tell me how you got into home decorating. Helen: It was an accident really Or, as in this example, from Digital Book World, bold the question and write out the answer below it. • Combination approach. Provide a choice of digital downloads for the live interview. Then present a transcript of the interview for readers. This example is from On Being does at Notice that readers can listen to the final edited interview, the unedited interview, or read the transcript. Their choice. Note: Even if you give a digital download of the interview, you need to provide written content for SEO purposes. So the template we provide below assumes you'll present the interview in written format. Don't be afraid to mix it up. Add media and images to add interest to your page. • Introduce your interviewee. Open the article by introducing your interviewee. Give background information about him or her. Then introduce the general topic of your interview. • Ask question. If you're going for a written format, pose your question. • You can put each speaker's name in bold, followed by their questions or comments. • You can put a big Q, followed by the questions, and a big A, followed by the answer. • You can highlight the questions and print the answers in normal text. • Record the answer. Transcribe your interviewee's comments in full. • Repeat till done. Keep listing questions and answers until the interview is done. • Conclusion/call to action Wrap up your interview with some kind words about your interviewee, or consider highlighting one of the comments in the interview. If the interviewee has written a book or created a product, highlight it at the end of your interview and link to it. End with a call to action. The List Some lists are short and some are long — we're talking 30, 50 or 100 long — but it doesn't really matter. People love lists. The longer, the better. One of the secrets to making lists work is to include the number in your title. While it's impressive to end with multiples of 5 or 10, don't be afraid of odd numbers. You can get more attention with 7, not 10, or 21, rather than 20 items in your list. For a bit of fun, put your list in reverse order. Begin with the last item and work your way down to your number-one item. This article by Cracked.com, is a great example. You can find it at • Introduce your topic. A short introduction is fine. Simply tell people what the list is about and why the information is useful. It's okay to be a little tongue in cheek — but only if it's already part of your branded voice. • Create your list. List all the items in your list. Make your list fun to read. • Make each item in your list a subhead. List all the items in your list. Make your list fun to read. • Write a sentence or short paragraph for each item in the list. Add an interesting thought, opinion or explanation. Consider including pictures. While you don't have to include them, they definitely add interest. • Conclusion/call to action After spending time compiling your list, it's easy to stop cold when you're done. Don't do that. Take a few extra minutes to tell your readers why the list matters. How does it help them? What new thought should they take away from it? Give them a strong close. And don't forget your call to action. The Link Post (Round-up) Link posts are a great way to add SEO value to your website. By creating Web pages that link to other pages — whether on your own website or others — you can improve your site's rank. Here's why When you create Web pages that link to other high-value websites, Google may begin to see you as an authoritative site. And when you link to your own Web pages, you can keep people on your site longer, reducing your bounce rate and increasing your page views per visit. Do that consistently, and Google may assign you points for Trust and Authority. So what does a link page look like? Here are a few examples: • This one by Copyblogger, at, starts with a lengthy introduction: Then it gives the links: • Here's a shorter version of the same thing. It's by Chris Brogan, Here there's less intro and more links. With link posts, length doesn't matter. It's the basic structure that does the job. And here's how you can do it. • Introduce your topic Tell your readers what information you're sharing and why it's valuable. • Optional: Break your topic into categories and give each a subhead. If you want to include different categories of information on the same topic, this is a great way to do it. If all your links relate to one main topic, you don't need subheads. Skip this step. • List the articles you're linking to and add links. Most link pages just give a list of page titles, linking them to their source. If you are using sub-categories, include a short blurb under each subhead and then paste your links under each. • Conclusion/call to action This type of post doesn't always have a conclusion. But it's always a good idea to tell your readers what to do next. • Your conclusion may be a normal invitation to comment or share. • You can provide a link to a landing page or contact form. • You can tell them how to learn more about the topic. So how do you write a book review? Here's one by Brand Driven Digital, at • Introduce the book You can introduce the topic of the book or the book itself. Simply come up with an interesting introduction that gets people curious about the book. • Introduce the author. In a book review, who writes the book is as important as what the book says. So do your research. Visit the author's website. Check out his or her social media. Look for an engaging story that elevates the author to celebrity status (or at least gives your something interesting to say). If you can, combine the book review with an interview. Get some original quotes from the author to add tons of value to your book review. • Summary of major points Provide an overview of the ideas in the book. For example, if the book is divided into three sections, you could create a subhead for each section and share the major point the author makes in each. • Tell what you like about the book. The biggest draw to book reviews is your opinion as reviewer. So be honest. If the book over-delivers in a particular way, tell your readers. • Tell what you don't like about the book. As in Step 4, give an honest review. Where does the book fall short? What would make it better? • Give your recommendation. Tell your readers whether they should buy the book or not. Be sure to include a link to Amazon or other site where they can get the book. • Conclusion/call to action Your recommendation can serve as your conclusion in this type of article. But you still need to give a call to action. As in our example, give people a link to the book and tell them to check it out. Product Review Product reviews are similar to book reviews and are an easy way for you to build authority as a solutions provider for your followers. For instance, if a new tactic is gaining momentum in your space, and if you find a product that makes it easier to implement, you owe it to your followers to tell them about it. You can treat product reviews like the book review above. To do that you simply introduce the product and talk about what it does and whether it's worth the purchase. Or you can combine the product review with a how-to article and add significant value. Like this article, available at • Introduce the product Provide an introduction to your topic. You can do this in two ways: • Introduce the problem the product solves. • Introduce the product and move straight to a review of how it works. • Introduce the producer/maker. As with the book review, people appreciate a product more if they know the story behind its production. So introduce the maker and a link to their website. • Describe the product. Why was it created? What problem does it solve? How does it do it? Here's where you give all the details about the product. IDEA: You can turn your content into a hybrid product review/how-to by including your how-to information here. Make each step of your solution a subhead, with images and copy to provide in-depth instruction. (We'll give you a template for the how-to article in a moment.) • Tell what you like and don't like about it. As in the book review, you need to give your thoughts about the product. Tell your followers what works, what doesn't work, and why. • Give your recommendation. Share your opinion. Tell your readers whether you think the product is worth the investment. If you have any tips, share them as well. • Conclusion/call to action. If you opened your product review with a problem, you can close with the solution. That's an easy way to take your content full-circle, making your readers feel as if they got the whole story. As always, include a call to action. How to How-to articles are some of the most-searched-for and most-read information on the Internet. If you have a solution to a common problem, by all means, turn it into content. Simple solutions make great blog posts or videos. But if your solution is more complicated, consider creating longer content. You can create special reports, ebooks and even multi-media programs to share your solutions. No matter how long or short, though, you should follow the same basic structure. This post from Crazy Egg is a good example: • Introduce the problem you're solving. Tell people about the problem. Then let them know you have a solution. Don't forget to tell them how the solution can benefit them. (It may seem obvious, but people need you to connect the dots.) • Introduce the solution and benefits of your process. If your solution is complex, you may not be able to cover the topic in an article. Consider creating a long-form piece of content, such as a special report or ebook. Or make a video to show and tell. In this case, it isn't too complicated, but it is a two-step problem, so the problem and solution to each side of the issue are given in separate sections. Here is the first section. Here is the second problem, listed under a separate subhead. Notice the parallel structure. That makes it easy for readers to see how you've organized your information. • List each step of your solution. If your how-to involves actionable steps, consider numbering them. Like this: But you don't have to number steps. You can easily just list the action, provide a screen shot or image, and then provide an explanation. By providing the steps in order, you easily guide your reader through the process. • Provide lots of detail. You can organize your information as a list, numbering the steps of your solution. Or you can organize it by topic, providing a complete discussion of each problem as you introduce it. But no matter how you organize your information, provide lots of details. The best how-to content gives step-by-step processes, graphics, and clear instructions. • Conclusion/call to action One of the best ways to close a how-to article is to create a final subhead with the bottom-line benefit of your solution. Then tell your readers what they'll gain by taking the actions you've just outlined for them. Focus on the benefits, and don't forget to include your call to action. In this case, it's a reminder to do it again in six month. Case Study Case studies are a great form of mid- to deep-funnel content. They can help people understand the value of your product or service. They can also provide value for customers, helping them get the most from your products. Few organizations do them as well as MarketingSherpa. So for this example, we'll use one of theirs, which you can find at: • Summarize your case study This is an executive summary of the study. Provide a quick overview and what you discovered. • Challenge Explain what the challenges were and what you were trying to accomplish. At this point, you want to share the steps you used to solve the problem. Provide as much detail as possible. It may help to think of this section as a modified how-to article, providing summaries of each step implemented. In our example, the full solution is summarized under a heading, 'Campaign.' Then each step is listed as a subhead: Each of these sections contains a description of the exact steps implemented. Next, itemize the results that were achieved. Be as specific as possible. You may include a few paragraphs of text. But be sure to include percentages of improvement. Like this: • Give samples and cite resources. With case studies, in lieu of a standard conclusion, you can offer more information. For example, MarketingSherpa provides links to source material from their case study. As always, try to incorporate a call to action. A few ideas: • Invite readers to share similar problems or success stories. • Link to a landing page that sells this same solution. • If your case study is published as a special report or ebook, offer a discount on first-time purchase of your product or service. Note: The biggest challenge in publishing media is SEO — because search engines can't crawl media. So be sure to optimize your content by providing written content along with your media. • Introduce your media. Introduce your topic as you would with a blog post. Tell people what information you offer and how it will benefit them. • Embed your media. Put the media file in your blog post or digital page. This is an infographic available at • Write a summary or a transcription of the media (for SEO and scanners). You need approximately 400 words of content around your media. So you have a few options here: • Provide a written transcript of the media file. • List highlights and other important points from your media file. • Draw excerpts from the media file, and provide them in written format. • Conclusion/call to action. As with all other content, make a strong final point and give a call to action. How to use these templates for longer formats As we've already mentioned, the 12 formats provided in this chapter are useful for print content and media. They work equally well in blog posts, special reports, ebooks, and even full-length books. Regardless of the length or format, you can use these same templates to structure your information — allowing you to speed up content creation and increase engagement levels. So how do you use these formats in longer content? • Adjust length of each section. Instead of a short paragraph for your introduction, go deep. Introduce all the ideas you'll discuss in your content, then summarize your big idea or major point. It can be one page (for a short ebook) or chapter length (for a print book). Always remember, when you work with longer copy, break up your copy into sections, each introduced by a subhead. This makes it more readable. Your process for writing chapters is similar to the creative process we reviewed in Chapter 4. • Adjust depth of each section. You have more space to get detailed in long copy. So you can introduce a topic, break it into sections and subsections, then provide in-depth research for each subsection. In short copy, to provide the same depth, you must narrow your topic. Or if you want to talk about a broad topic, you must talk about high-level concepts, not details. • Mix and match formats within the long-form content. The exciting thing about content marketing is that you aren't limited to written content. You are limited only by your imagination. For example: • Give followers a choice about how to digest your content. Offer an audio version of your written blog posts. Or create an audio book in addition to your print or digital book. • If your how-to information is too complicated to put into words, create a video that shows and tells. Then write out your steps as a quick reference below the video. • Combine images, screen shots and videos to illustrate your points. • Create your ebook, not just as a PDF, but as an HTML file. Then embed videos, audio files and images to enhance its ability to communicate your points. Don't think of content only as written words. Think of it as ideas. Then share your ideas in the way that communicates best. Conclusion The 12 templates provided in this chapter give you a basic framework for every type of content you are likely to produce. Each time you start a content project, review the templates and find the best structure. Or mix and match them to create a unique format that's customized to your idea. Then get creative.
