Tumblr media
Sam’s phone buzzes in his pocket. Tugging it free, he unlocks the screen and goes right to the chat string. There’s a new message from you. Odd, considering you hate texting and would rather call than send a—
Oh.
> i’ve always thought about your cock ;) 
His blood turns hot. It’s been a while since he’d gotten a text like this, the last time he’d done this sort of thing, he’d been left hanging and given up. That was a while ago. 
In the four years you’ve been with them you’ve all seen each other in the near-nude quite a bit, after walking in on showers, clothing changes, sex, everything. He thinks ‘well, I've always thought about your tits’ as a silent reply, but changes it at the last minute.
< What about it?
Your little chat bubble pops up, wavering back and forth for several long seconds before a message finally pops up. 
> how it looks. how it feels.
He chuckles to himself, ignoring Dean’s nagging “what is it” and attempt to lean over and get a peek at whatever’s amused his little brother. Dean only earns himself a muttered “fuck off” as Sam taps on the keyboard.
< You’re telling me this just now? Why?
> cosmo said sexting is good ;)
Ahhh, yes, of course. You’ve been indulging in that damn magazine again. Might as well entertain while he’s into it.
< On the road. Want a pic later?
> yes, please :)
He smirks to himself as his dick gives an interested twitch. 
< Are you gonna treat me, too?
> if you’re good. drive safe. 
“What was that about?”
Sam turns his phone over. His cheeks are bright red, he’s sure of it. “What was what?”
“Somethin’ got you happy,” Dean makes a grab for the phone, somehow keeps the Impala straight on the road, and misses as Sam yanks his device out of his brother’s reach. 
“Fuck you,” he retorts, grinning despite himself. 
“Was it Y/N?”
“Yeah.”
Dean narrows his eyes. “She okay?”
“She’s fine.” Sam clears his throat and stares out the window, trying to will his dick to stand down. He’s seen your tits on several occasions, the most notable being when he’d walked in on you touching yourself under the covers, rolling a nipple between your fingers with a hand apparently between your legs. The memory always comes to him when he needs it, and it never fails to do its job. 
“Anything juicy?”
Sam’s throat goes dry. “What?”
“She got anything on the case,” Dean clarifies.
“Uh, no.” Sam makes a show of checking his phone again, as if you might have sent something relevant to their travels. “She, uh, just wanted to check in.”
Dean relents, but gives his brother a shifty look as they continue down the long, empty stretch of road. 
They pull into a motel just after six. Dean sticks around long enough to drop his stuff, use the bathroom, and takes off for the closest bar. Sam takes advantage of the fact that he’s alone to throw the lock on the door and stretch out on his bed, phone in hand. The lure of privacy finally overwhelms him, and he shoves his jeans down his thighs, gathering his cock in one hand as he shoots you a message.
< Hey
You reply within seconds. 
> what you got for me?
Sam grins and strokes himself firmly, getting himself hard and ready. 
< Gimmie a minute
> can’t get it up?
< Feel free to help.
> mmm i can wait ;)
Tumblr media
You’re relaxing in bed, phone in hand. Sam’s little chat bubble keeps popping up and dissapearing, and you can’t tell if he keeps fucking up the camera or not. 
> I’m sending this on Snapchat
You roll your eyes. Of course, he’s paranoid about Dean getting into his phone. 
< i’m waiting
After a good five minutes, a little yellow notification pops up on your screen. A thrill of excitement makes its way through your stomach, and you open the app and scroll to the fresh chat string.
Holy goddamn. 
He’s thick and long, flushed dark and glistening at the tip. Gripping himself at the base, held between his thumb and index finger. He’s shaved clean, or waxed, and you feel heat swirl between your legs at the thought of what he might feel like inside you. A quick screenshot lights up your screen, and you smile when Sam’s text comes through.
> Screenshot? Really?
You giggle, typing back. 
< i liked it. keep touching yourself.
> Wasn’t planning on stopping
< video?
> Hang on
You set your phone down to wait and quickly undress, getting comfortable on the bed as the anticipation builds. When another Snaptchat notification pops up, you slide a hand between your legs, teasing your clit as you open the video, volume on high. 
“Oh, fuck…” Sam’s breathy moan echoes through the receiver as the camera focuses on his cock. His hand’s moving steadily up and down, twisting around the head. You lose yourself in it, watching closely as his abs tighten, hips moving up so he can fuck up into his fist. 
The video only lasts a good fifteen seconds before it times out, and you let your head fall back onto the pillow as you try to process the heated glory of what you’ve witnessed. 
> Enjoy?
You raise your phone up to type a quick reply.
< yes - more?
> Define more.
< i want to see you cum
The next ten minutes are filled with the sound of Sam’s moaning on repeat in your head as you stroke and touch and rub yourself. You won’t cum quite yet—you’re just amping yourself up.
When your phone vibrates, you’re quick to snatch it up and scroll to the new message.
It’s almost a minute of Sam just panting and grunting, the phone angled down by his hip so you can see his cock aimed up towards his stomach. His fingers tighten, loosen, pumping up and down until he lets go with a strangled grunt and several drawn-out sighs as he spurts thick, white ropes of cum onto his abs. The video cuts off before he’s truly done, but you’re left satisfied as you shoot him a text with trembling fingers.
< messy boy ;)
> Haha. Can I see you now? Please?
Such a gentleman. 
< what do u want to see?
Tumblr media
Sam takes a hot minute to wipe himself clean before replying. He knows exactly what he wants to see. 
< How wet are you?
> really wet
< Show me.
 He sits back against the headboard, breath held as he waits. As soon as the little chat notification pops up, he opens the image and lets out a long, drawn-out moan at the sight of your middle finger, shiny with slick and nestled between the bare lips of your pussy. He’s so engrossed in the image that he forgets to snap a screenshot and asks for a second. 
You send it without question, this one where you’ve got two fingers pressed down over your clit and Sam can see the soft pink inside of your cunt, flushed and swollen and shiny…
< I want to be inside you so bad is all he can manage to text you as his cock gives a solid twitch. 
> mmm maybe when u get back…
Sam’s mouth waters at the thought, and he’s halfway through typing a reply when you send a follow up that makes his cock perk up in his boxers.
> i bet cumming on your dick would feel real good
Sam rubs a palm over his thigh—he can’t remember the last time he got hard twice in a row… 
< Are you touching yourself?
> yeah
< Show me.
He slides a hand inside his boxers, stroking slowly as he waits. 
It’s well worth it: your legs are spread wide, two fingers swirling on your clit. He can see your cunt squeezing around nothing, and debates if it’s worth asking you to use one of the toys he knows you have. 
< Good girl… make yourself cum for me.
The next video, like his, takes a while to come through. He continues to rub and stroke himself, more intent on alleviating the pressure between his legs rather than having another orgasm. He wonders how warm and tight you’d be on him—it’s been a while since he got his dick wet and he’d be lying if he said his jackoff sessions the last few weeks have totally not been drenched in thoughts of you riding him, grabbing at him and begging for him...
His phone buzzes, and he bites down on his lower lip as he opens the video. 
Fucking. Hell.
It’s two minutes of your hips rolling, thighs trembling, moans changing in pitch and intensity. Sam pinpoints the exact moment when your orgasm peaks: you let out a long, high-pitched cry of pleasure as your body convulses, and he can tell that you’re fighting to keep your legs spread long enough for your shaky video to capture the rest of it.
By the time the recording ends, Sam’s ready to bust hands-free. He pulls his hand from his cock and replies, breathing through his nose as he fights to keep some form of self-control. 
< Gorgeous. 
> next time i cum, i want you inside me.
Sam groans, shifting uncomfortably as he types a reply.
< We’ll be back by the end of the week. Think you can wait that long?
> yes
< I wanna taste you. 
> you can ;)
Sam licks his lower lip, desperate to find some relief. He needs a shower, anyway, he can take more time in there. 
< Gonna clean up and get to bed. You all good back there?
> got cosmo to hold me down until u get back. send me a pic in the morning?
< Of what?
> you know. goodnight.

Silent Validations (Namjoon Oneshot)
Tumblr media
A/n: In celebration of mono coming out today, I just had to type a little something up when I had the time~ Congrats to Joon on such a beautiful playlist, it’s literally everything and more.
Silence. 
It was the only thing that surrounded him at the moment, as he sat in his room, waiting as each second passed by. 
In a matter of minutes, Namjoon was going to release his new mixtape, his playlist. 
The silence somewhat haunted him, because it really only left him with his own thoughts. Would it be successful? Will people like it? Would it meet expectations?
Though his members reassured him that the playlist was more than ready to make it’s debut to the world, Namjoon couldn’t help but stare at the clock and think about what the world was going to say. 
These tracks were his raw feelings somehow in musical form. Would those feelings be heard to those who listen? He could only hope so. 
And sure, he himself has grown since first starting to work on the mixtape, but he still wanted to show the world what he himself has felt and gone through since starting till now. 
He glances at the clock at the bottom of his monitor and shuts his eyes when he realizes that it was 11:59 pm. One more minute to go. 
It still amazes him how nervous he gets no matter how many songs he releases. This time was probably the most nervous he’s ever been. 
He knew he shouldn’t immediately log into different sites and look at the comments that people leave. So he shuts down his monitor, just as the time turned to midnight. 
It was strange, he thought. He felt so much anticipation waiting till midnight, but now that it was here, it almost felt surreal. 
Fans around the world were probably streaming the song already, and he slightly chuckled when he saw the first notification on his phone was one from Youtube, letting him know that his music video was now uploaded. 
He wasn’t even going to see it for a while. 
There weren’t that many places he could escape to so late at night in France, so he settled to taking a nice long shower. He forced himself to think of anything but what people were probably saying about his music at the moment. 
He could hear his phone beep with a few notifications, probably from the members congratulating him. He can almost guarantee that Jimin or Taehyung was probably the first one to message him. 
After stepping out of the shower and wiping at the fog on the mirror, Namjoon stood there and just stared at the reflection staring back at him. And...the reflection smiled. 
The journey he took up till this point was....long to say the least. It was tiring, both physically and emotionally. But those exact experiences are what shaped his current playlist. And he hoped that at least one person out there found some comfort in his words. 
Now, in that moment, Namjoon felt a lot of things, but perhaps the most prominent emotion was...eagerness?
He was eager to meet the future and tackle it head on. 
Namjoon grabs his phone, smiling further when he realizes that both Jimin and Taehyung had texted him at pretty much the same time. I know them too well he thinks. 
He chuckles at the rest of the messages from various other people. His other members, Bang PD, other producers, and even his family. He was so thankful for these people to be willing to listen to his works as soon as it was released, no matter what time it was wherever they were. 
Namjoon decided to reply to everyone in the morning, when he could gather his thoughts more. 
He stumbled to bed, ruffling his wet hair hoping to get a few extra drops of water to fly off. 
He plopped down on the bed, groaning a little when his whole body relaxed into the comfort of his bed. He was tired, but he knew that sleep probably wasn’t going to come anytime soon. 
What could he do to pass the time?
It wasn’t really a question he had to think of the answer for too long, because there was really only one thing he really needed to do at the moment. 
He quickly unlocks his phone, settling into his bed further as he wraps himself under the thick comforter. 
He opens up his own personal, and rather anonymous instagram account. It was an account that no one knew who he was. Sure, he had another account for his family and close friends, but this was a public account that he opened up just for fun one day. He uploaded mostly random pictures from his travels, but none of them revealed who or where he was. Plus, he only really had like 15 posts and 73 followers. 
He wasn’t even sure how he got 72 of those followers. 
One though, he knew very well. Well, somewhat. 
One day as he was browsing through instagram, he had stumbled upon an account. It wasn’t anything special really, the pictures were actually pretty basic. But the captions are really what caught his eye. 
It was rare to see people express their feelings in such a raw form on social media. He read the caption of the picture he saw first, and it was obvious that whoever the user was, was having a not a bad day. 
But he opened up other pictures from the user, and each picture had a little caption of that person’s life and it was oddly entertaining to Namjoon to read through this person’s life through instagram. 
He started from the beginning, and scrolled through each picture as if going back in time on this person’s life. 
And the first time he actually found a picture of the person himself, it was almost as if time stopped. 
That person, that beautiful woman behind the screen, took his breath away. 
“Too all the new people who have stumbled onto my account and have stalked through the rest of my pictures, hello. My name is Y/n. It’s nice to meet you.” you simply captioned, causing him to chuckle at that time. 
He just knew, he had to talk to you. So he had immediately sent you a DM right there and then. 
He wasn’t really sure what to say, let alone if you’d even reply considering you had thousands of followers, but it was worth a shot. 
So he sent you a simple message. “Thank you for sharing your feelings”. 
It wasn’t till a few days later after he sent that message did he really have time to check his instagram. And much to his surprise, you had replied. 
“Thank you for taking the time to read about my feelings, stranger. I don’t know how many people actually read the sappy stuff on my captions, but thank you for doing so” you said. 
Namjoon just smiled as he typed up a reply himself. 
Fast forward to today, you two had talked frequently. And by frequently, you mean you two talked almost on a daily basis. 
Namjoon never thought he’d make an internet friend considering his job. But you had respected his wishes of being anonymous, as long as he promised he wasn’t some creepy stalker or murderer, which also caused him to chuckle as he read the message. 
Your online friendship was now a solid 3 years strong, and Namjoon found silent comfort in your words, not only through your conversation with him but also through reading about your life. 
Somewhere along the line, Namjoon had become your favorite person to talk to, and somewhere along the way, you had confessed that you were a fan of BTS.  Namjoon remembers freezing when he saw that message from you, slightly wondering if you possibly caught on about who he really was. 
But thankfully, you hadn’t. 
So Namjoon just told you that he himself had listened a little of BTS’ songs (which was the biggest understatement of the century) and he had asked you on multiple accounts of what you thought of the music. 
And at first, he was just expecting you to fangirl about the music and the members. But then again, you never failed to surprise him. 
When he first asked you what you thought of BTS, he could see that you were typing. But he never got a reply for hours. 
So when he finally got a response, he was surprised to see almost a small essay in his messages about why you appreciated BTS and their music. You had related their music to moments and experiences in your life, and Namjoon felt tears form in his eyes. 
Sure, he constantly read from fans about how their music has helped them, but he felt this connection to you after talking to you for so long, and he was so happy that in some way or form, he had helped you overcome struggles in your life. 
“Wow, I didn’t know they meant that much to you” He had simply said. 
“You have no idea what they mean for lots of people” you say back. 
So since then, following any release, he would ask you what you thought of the music. And you were brutally honest when it came to your feedback. Sure, most of it was good, but you had to speak on your preferences. Of course you’d prefer some songs over the others. 
He remembers when Hoseok had released his mixtape, you had all but bombarded him with compliments. It was strange, but Namjoon realized that he was slightly jealous by it. 
 He knew that you were probably awake and had listened to his playlist by this time, so he anxiously sent you a message. 
“So...didn’t RM release a mixtape today? What did you think?” he asked, trying to play it cool. 
A few seconds later, he saw that you had read the message. 
You: Honestly?
He felt himself tense at the reply. Did she not like it?
Joon: Yeah, what did you think of it?
He could see you start to type again, and he felt his heart beat faster as each second passed. Why did he feel more anxious now then when he was waiting for the mixtape to release?
You: Well stranger, it’s everything. 
Namjoon blinked at his screen. What was that supposed to mean?
Joon: Everything? What do you mean?
He waiting again anxiously as you typed, but this response was taking a lot longer than he would have liked. He almost wanted to yell at the phone as if to tell you to type faster. 
But finally, his phone vibrated with a response. 
You: I mean like... it’s everything? I don’t know how to explain it, stranger. The emotions in the songs are so... how do I put it... raw? I wasn’t expecting this kind of a sound for his mixtape, considering his first one. But this one is just... beautiful to say the least. I love it, I love it all. I finally got done listening to all of the tracks, and I honestly can’t even pick a favorite. The lyrics, those really hit home for me. And plus, have you seen the MV? It’s so... sad? So meaningful? I know they’re famous stars and stuff and it probably makes me a bad person for saying this, but knowing that he struggles too and felt these...painful emotions? It made me feel like I wasn’t alone, that even people like Kim Namjoon is just a person too. And also like how even does he and the company even have time for this? I’m sorry, I know you probably don’t want to listen to me rave about BTS all the time, but this playlist kind of had me in tears. It’s just... it’s amazing...to put it simply. 
Namjoon read your message one, and then once again. And again for good measure, as if the message was going to disappear as if it were on snapchat. Hell, he even took a screenshot of the message. 
Because in that message alone, he got everything he needed. He needed just one person out there to understand the things he was trying to say through his music, and he felt like you had done just that. It was the silent validation that he was seeking. 
So before he could even think of what he was saying he quickly typed,
Joon:  you have no idea what that feedback means to me. Thank you, sincerely. 
You:  why does my feedback on this playlist have anything to do with you??
And it was at that moment that he realized that he had slightly messed up. Sure, he didn’t give himself away, but it definitely made you suspicious slightly. 
Joon: I guess you just helped me see things through your eyes more clearly. 
He knew that sounded ambiguous af, but he knew that you wouldn’t really question it. 
You: Oh, gotcha. Not sure if it helped, but you’re welcome. 
Namjoon placed his phone on the nightstand after sending his goodbyes for the day, a smile still plastered on his face. 
Tomorrow was going to be a new day, and when he awoke, he would take the time to go through and read the comments of fans all over the world. But he knew that he had already got the validation he needed. 
Tomorrow was going to be a new day. 
Perhaps, it was one day closer to finally meeting you in person. 
One day closer to thanking you in person.
One day, closer to you. 
A/n: just something short and sweet for our Namjoon. hope you guys enjoyed. stream mono!!

8 Tricks to increase your Social Media Engagement updated 2020
Most important commodity today is human's attention span. People scroll up the content on Social Media just by gauging the content in 3 secs.
Yes you read it right! It takes almost 3 secs for people to interact with your Social Media posts or scroll it up to look for something interesting below.
I am Mangesh Rane Digital Marketing Strategist practising for more than 3+ years scaling Businesses digitally through online promotion and content marketing.
Let's discuss about the tricks on how to increase your Social Media post engagement.
Tumblr media
Experiment with all available Social Media features
There are plenty of social media features such as updating a story, creating carousel images, going live.
You can try hands on each and every feature,  to be active keeping a consistency of posting may be 2 times a day. Updating 3 stories each day is also a good practise. Uploading Videos across various social media channels.
Create a value adding, helpful, inspiring, entertaining , emotional content while you post.
Instagram has options such as questions, quiz or you may have a poll. The bottomline is make it interactive. Higher your content receives the interaction from people Social Media platforms throws it to maximum people. Leverage this organic reach to grow a community. By doing this you will establish a strong Brand presence.
Reply Every Comments
Whenever you find people have commented on your post, reply to it with a relevant answer. Make it more engaging like having a healthy discussion. Don't hesitate to use it like a chat box as long as conversation is going well adding value.
This way you will keep your regular followers engaged, have healthy bonding to keep a good relationship in the community.
You Must Post on Social Media
It's intimidating at the beginning to post on Social Media. You will be nervous to how people may react. The best part about you is only your unique self. You have your version of the story to contribute so don't hesitate to share a few tricks, tips and hacks that could be useful to others. We all are humans and everyone of us has different thought processes which creates different solutions at times. You may end up inspiring someone's life. One note you also need to be responsible while posting as topics like religion and politics are too sensitive. These topics may side you from your core expertise due to a fueled debate. Be care of what you post.
Don't Follow to Unfollow
This is a regular trend on instagram, twitter people follow others accounts to gain followers. Once they gain followers, maybe the next day they unfollow.
By doing this you may end up gaining maximum followers who use the same technique which are not genuine. They won't be genuinely interested in your business, brand services.
It's better you have a small set of genuine followers with highly interactive people rather than fake followers with negligible engagement on your social media posts.
Now the question remains whom to follow?
You can follow those accounts which follows experts, influencers but havent made big. Why so? Because they are highly active to hunt for solutions. They have higher chances to form strong bond if right value is added to them due to their active and ambitious vision which aligns with your brand. You may add value to such people make thier path easier. By doing so they become part of your like minded community.
Interact from your Brand account.
Most essential necessity of the brand is to reach to right prospects. If you interact from Brand account it will increase visibility. People will also follow back looking at your brands interest to engage with them.
Content Marketing is the key
Every time you post on Social Media it is essential you keep a consistent brand tone. This may be in form of a color code, style of fonts. Why would anyone do it?
Having a consistent Brand elements in the posts such a logo, uniformity in color and fonts increases the brand recall factor. This is highly important to create lasting impression on people who interact with your brand.
Content Marketing is techniques to create a content that aims to desire a specific purpose such as sales or leads. I would recommend to have 80% of your Social Media Posts on adding value, entertaining, giving some solutions to people. While 20% of post could be pure promotional. In short 2 out of 10 posts can be promotional.
Be Active on Both Personal and Professional Accounts
An important tip, don't hesitate to share your posts updated on Business account to your personal account. But dont over do it as well. Maintain fine line between sharing content and spamming other posts on your profile.
Why I am telling you to do so?
Because platform like instagram claims Business Profile reach is less than personal profile. Thus you can leverage your personal profile to reach prospects may be through your inner network of people.
Aim to Build Like Minded Community
Aim to have specific followers intrested in your niche. This will help you to interact with them now their queries create content that revolves over thier requirements.
How will this work? Predominantly you need to be consistent in posting on Social Media. Visibility is first step towards Digital Marketing Succees. Your Business should have a content calendar in place all set for next 3 months.
You can use hootsuit, buffer and various other Social Media tools to schedule your posts in advance.
Dont be rigid to calendar be flexible to pick up a topical content as per the on going trend. But be consistent in your post updates. Engage your followers. Buid a solid community grow together. Dont aim for sales sales sales!
No one likes to be pushed over a product or service on Social Media. If you want quick leads yoi can do paid promotions for it.
If you want a long term relationship of prospects, retain them for years you need to gain their trust through your value adding engaging social media consistent posts.

Undoubtedly you've heard the expression "content shock," coined by marketing expert Mark Schaefer.
With immense respect, I have to admit: I don't believe in it.
The idea that there's so much content out there, people are tired of content altogether? That no one's giving new content a chance? That it's too hard to get new content seen? Not buying it. I think what's happening is simply this: People don't want "content." They want answers to questions. They want a few minutes of entertainment. They want to learn something new. They want what they were searching for in the first place. To reach our audience, we need to stop creating content and start producing the best answer to their queries.  Companies that adopt this content marketing strategy tend to top search engine rankings (Top…rankings…there's an agency name in there somewhere, I can feel it). It's easy to find examples of what Lee Odden refers to as "best answer content." Just go to your friendly neighborhood search engine, enter a query, and browse the first few results. With few exceptions, you will see content that is:
Addressed to a Specific Audience
Addressed to a Specific Query
Substantial
Comprehensive, Addressing Complimentary Queries and Crosslinking
Not Blatantly Promotional
At TopRank Marketing, we call this type of content a "Power Page." It's designed to not only top the rankings, but inspire longer time-on-page, lower bounce rates, and direct readers deeper into the site with solid next steps. Here are a few of my favorite Power Pages. Some are from our clients, some I found at the top of my search results.
#1: A Beginner's Guide to Email Marketing
Nobody beats Neil Patel and his crew at KISSmetrics for sheer volume of best-answer content. This 2,000+ word monster is ranked in the top three on Google for "How to Do Email Marketing." It's easy to see why. Author Nathan Hangen walks the reader through every aspect of creating an email marketing campaign, including tangential topics like how to put together a newsletter and how to write a compelling CTA. This piece's search engine ranking is a clear indication that great content is its own SEO. There's no keyword stuffing in the first paragraph, no awkwardly-shoehorned-in links. It's just great, valuable, thorough content. To my eye, the only thing lacking here is a navigational element. A sidebar with links to the headers would make it even easier for people to find what they're looking for.
#2: 7 Questions Every B2B Content Marketing Strategy Should Answer
This page from client LinkedIn Marketing Solutions looks like a mild-mannered blog post, but it's secretly an organic search powerhouse. Most blog content has a limited life span for search potential. Blog posts generally get shared in the first 2-3 days, then the Internet's collective consciousness moves on to the next new thing. By contrast, this post was designed to be evergreen. It addresses crucial concerns marketers have about B2B content marketing strategy, thoroughly answering each and including links to further reading. Many of these links are next-steps to gated content, which add value while also capturing leads.
#3: 100 Best Paleo Diet Recipes of All Time
Not every Power Page has to be a 2,000 word original piece of content created from scratch. This page from Paleo Grubs ranks highly for "best paleo recipes," and is at heart, a roundup of the site's previously-published recipes, with a few external links for good measure. A little repurposing, a little curation, a little new content for the blurb on each recipe, and voila: An evergreen resource. This page not only has immediate value for a reader, it has lasting value. They're bound to spend several minutes browsing, then bookmark the page for future reference. Notice the CTA at the top left, and the continued offers throughout as you scroll. They're never intrusive, but they're highly visible just the same.
#4: The Future of Diagnostic Imaging
This Power Page from McKesson's Medical Imaging Talk Blog is another permutation of what best-answer content can be. It serves as a topics page, rounding up blogs on medical imaging in several different categories. But it also features commentary on each of the categories, a live Twitter feed, polls and links to gated content. The result is a dynamic page worth bookmarking, where content is continually refreshed while the anchor page remains the same. A Power Page like this can be a portal to the rest of your blog, selecting out a sub-audience by topic and showing them only your most relevant content.
#5: The Best Hiking Boots for Men
  Everything about this page from Outdoor Gear Lab is above and beyond the call of duty. There's no wonder it ranks consistently at the top for "Best hiking boots." Notice how it starts with "What is the best men's hiking boot?" What a great way to pull in a likely keyword query. That little SEO flourish is genius, but it's this page's comprehensive content that makes it unbeatable. Note the navigational tabs on the top—you can immediately see there's a great deal of content here and that it's well-organized. That kind of information right up front is likely to keep readers on the page exploring. Not only that, the ability to jump right into the information they're looking for will keep bounce rates low. This page is packed with valuable information for a prospective hiker, presented in a simple but attractive format. Bonus points for the extensive use of home-grown visuals—there's not a stock photo in sight.
6. Account Based Marketing Resources: Definitions, Tactics, Tips & Strategy
Predictive marketing platform Everstring sought to create a one-stop shop for account based marketing with this Power Page. They began with one of the most-searched queries for this relatively new term: "What Is Account-Based Marketing (ABM)?" That query is the start of a deep dive into every relevant aspect of ABM, from getting started to refining tactics. The organization of this page is exceptional; it's definitely optimized for ease of reading. Big, bold headers lead to short paragraphs with bulleted points of interest. And it includes rich media in the form of embedded SlideShares, which add value, visual interest, and can increase time on page. Don't Be The Ocean. Be the Lighthouse. Nobody wants more "content." Your audience is looking for a guiding light, not another drop in the bucket. Create best answer content—data-based, comprehensive, valuable—and let it be a beacon to lead weary sailors to your shore. To learn more about how TopRank Marketing creates exceptional content, check out our content marketing service page. Disclosure: LinkedIn, Everstring and McKesson are TopRank Marketing clients.
