A Content Strategy Secret Weapon for Marketing Professionals
Creating content strategies that actually perform today requires more than creativity and good instincts. You need concrete data about emerging opportunities to position your brand or your clients ahead of market shifts rather than reacting to trends after they've already peaked.
Traditional keyword research tools show you what's already popular, which means you're always competing in crowded markets. By the time you discover a trending topic, dozens of competitors have likely already published content on it. Your carefully crafted articles get buried in search results despite your best efforts.
So what do you need in order to stand out and win more traffic?
Predictive trend intelligence.
Predictive trend intelligence identifies emerging topics 12 to 15 months before they reach mainstream awareness. With access to early trend signals, you can develop impressive content strategies around opportunities that have minimal competition but a ton of growth potential.
So, you'll build topical authority and capture organic traffic before competitors even realize the opportunity exists.
Exploding Topics Pro analyzes data points across search engines, social media platforms, and consumer behavior signals to surface trends with compounding growth patterns. Unlike viral fads that spike and disappear, these are sustainable opportunities that continue gaining momentum over months or years.
Plus, the channel breakdown report shows exactly where audiences are engaging with each trend, helping you allocate resources to the right content formats and distribution channels.
