If you want newer statistics about content marketing, check our 2018 edition: Content Marketing Trends And Statistics for 2018
Beginning of the year, a perfect time to share some stats that back up the increasing trend of content marketing popularity. And I’m not talking just about 2017. As it seems, the trend will be continued.
While your competitors invest more in content marketing, you don’t want to be the one who’s not invited to the party.

After all, 75% of marketers aren’t missing this chance for a reason. Although we are overflowed by stats sometimes, I have been monitoring data related to content marketing for quite some time now. Almost all of the predictions by the most influential marketers I’ve read last year came true.
For example:
It’s clear now, content marketing is not a hype. It’s real. It’s here. And it’s effective.
It’s possible you’ve asked yourself the question – How come so many marketers and all kinds of businesses are turning to content marketing lately? You are not the only one asking this question.
And the data provides the answer: it works!
So, let’s move to the data. Enjoy the numbers.
