They may find it by using a search engine, clicking a social media link, or by taking a quick glance at a friend's computer screen. However your content reaches your target audience, it should be appeal to them with well-written, clearly organized information. You only get one change to make a favorable first impression with a customer.

Content Intelligence

Intelligent content is content that’s structurally rich and semantically categorized and therefore automatically discoverable, reusable, reconfigurable, and adaptable.Ann Rockley, Content Marketing Specialist

At The Content Era, we think the best way to create and maintain structured, useful content is with intelligent tools. This is why we focus on the industry's most versatile products and devote considerable, ongoing effort to their improvement.

While others spend time talking about intelligent content, we facilitate it with smart content creation and management processes. True content intelligence covers every phase of development and maintenance.

Content Automation

Most XML editing platforms today can be enhanced to give the user a supercharged authoring and editing work flow. Some give you ability to apply create custom menu commands that you can use to accomplish a myriad of tasks like custom publishing or applying mass changes to content that aren’t possible using out of the box functionality.

The Content Era, has been employing the use of our own TCE menu options in our day to day technical projects. We then use our own feedback to further enhance our customer’s XML editing platform's user experience. There are an insurmountable number of possible commands you can create using this method, you just have to be creative.

So, to get you started, here are some of the custom commands we’ve created for some of our customers that have saved them time, money and headaches. Plus, why they matter to managers and the bigger business objectives they impact.

Content Strategy

It really pays to stop and think before creating new content. What goal you are trying to achieve, and is the new content the best possible way to reach that goal? How can existing content be reused, repurposed, restyled, or transformed to become more effective?

Content strategy involves all aspects of your business, from product planning and marketing to support and customer engagement. An effective content strategy requires a well-defined approach to creating and maintaining semantically rich, structurally mature content.

With six decades of combined experience, The Content Era continues helping clients across several industries to transform the potential of their content into significant, value-added returns.

Content Management

The complexity of managing today's structured, reusable, and personalized content is a growing challenge to the support of simple version-control systems. Tracking source content is not enough. You must track its use across an expanding variety of outputs and formats.

The most effective way to track content is with a modern Component Content Management System (CCMS). The Content Era works closely with strategic partners, one of which created DITAToo. This CCMS provides an entry-level, cost-effective, DITA-savvy system that gets you up and running right away with structured, reusable, and personalized content.

For more demanding projects with high volumes of content and many authors, or for customers who are bound to a CMS that is already in use for other departments, we work with a variety of partners. Every situation is unique, but we will find a content management solution that fits your organization like a glove.
