How content teams are driving growth, measuring what works, and thinking about the future; and why being data-driven is going to ignite content marketing like never before
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — WordPress VIP (WPVIP), the leading provider of enterprise WordPress and part of Automattic’s suite of innovative brands, today announced the release of its Content Matters 2023 Report, a proprietary overview on the state of content marketing, based on a survey of more than 1,500 marketers, journalists, developers, and executives across the globe and B2B/B2C industries.
