Description

The Language of Content Strategy is the gateway to a language that describes the world of content strategy. With fifty-two contributors, all known for their depth of knowledge, this set of terms forms the core of an emerging profession and, as a result, helps shape the profession. The terminology spans a range of competencies with the broad area of content strategy.

The Language of Content Strategy defines fifty-two terms that are central to the discipline of content strategy. Each term has been defined by an expert in that area, and each definition contains an essay that describes why that term is important.

Terms are grouped into five categories: Core Concepts, Core Deliverables, Technical Concepts, Extended Deliverables, and Global Content.

Editorial Reviews

“Love the bite-sized, organized, and consistent presentation of knowledge. This book will help anyone improve his or her content strategy.”

— Guy Kawasaki, Founder of Altop and author of APE: Author, Publisher, Entrepreneur — How to Publish a Book

The Language of Content Strategy fills a much-needed gap in the content strategy field. Without a formal institute or organization to guide their vocabulary, content strategists often find themselves talking at cross purposes, even when talking about the same concept.”

— Mark Fidelman, Forbes Columnist, CEO for Raynforest, Inc., and Managing Director, Evolve!
