They are required to write SEO friendly content to improve the website’s ranking on the search engine. A content writer is responsible for the quality of the content he creates.

3. Similarities between A CONTENT MARKETER AND A CONTENT WRITER

The motive of a content marketer and a content writer has quite a lot of similarities. Often the two jobs are performed by the same person in an organization. A content writer as well as a content marketer focus on the marketing of products and services. A content writer writes about the products and services, which ultimately attracts potential buyers. And attracting potential customers is the main purpose of a content marketer’s job. 

Both of the two professionals have to work together. It can also be said that content writing is a part of content marketing. The relationship between a content marketer and a content writer is that they both strive at attracting more and more clients.


4. Differences between A CONTENT MARKETER AND A CONTENT WRITER

Content marketing is a greater concept than content writing. Content writing is the first step towards content marketing. But a content writer only writes the content, whereas a content marketer has a much broader parameter. A content marketer lays stress on presenting the content, in a manner in which it attracts attention. A content marketer publishes the content. He is responsible for building links and connections with the outsiders and maintaining a positive image of the entity. He also needs to measure the success of the content being published. 

On the other hand, a content writer writes up about certain things, which are not necessarily related to marketing. He can also write about issues that have nothing to do with the promotion of a particular product. But the entire work of a content marketer revolves around creating goodwill of a specific company/ organisation.

This is pretty clear that content writing and content marketing are complementary to each other. Content writing, however, is an inseparable and a major part of content marketing. The relationship between a content marketer and a content writer is indispensable. Both of them are crucial for effective marketing.
