Hub and Spoke Content Marketing: What Is It & How Does It Work?
Have you ever found an interesting topic on Wikipedia or Reddit, then found yourself still reading about that same topic (or related topics) hours later? You start with one short post that piques your interest, then suddenly you're immersed in the world of Faberge eggs or conspiracy theories. You can't even remember how you got here.
These intriguing information overload sessions are called internet rabbit holes, and they're a pretty common way to become an expert on a topic. In fact, they're so common that marketers are using an approach called "hub and spoke" to create content specifically for this purpose: to create rabbit holes and keep readers on your site for hours and hours.
If you want more details on this new trend, Search Engine Journal's got you covered. Hub and spoke is an intriguing content marketing concept, and we imagine it will be the next big thing for blogs and other websites.
