Content Marketing is defined as- "the strategic marketing approach of creating and sharing relevant, valuable and consistent content to attract and retain a clearly-defined audience — and, ultimately, to drive profitable customer action."
The main purpose is to attract the customers to a website by creating relevant and important content consistently. It is basically an ongoing or a long-term marketing strategy.

CONTENT MARKETING & SEO-
Neil Patel best explains the connection between Content Marketing and SEO-
"SEO demands content. Content marketing is content. There is no such thing as SEO without content. You need words, articles, substance, keywords, verbiage.I wince whenever I have to say it, because it’s so cliche, but it’s true: Content is king."
You use keywords in your content to increase your ranking in the Search Results. Using more keywords means greater opportunities for you to rank in the search results. That's why Keyword Research is important.
Other important factor in SEO is good quality backlinks. To get backlinks, it's important to create good, relevant and educating content that keeps your audience engaged and they would want to share your content with others.
Also publish fresh content regularly on your website to rank higher. Because if you won't, Google will assume your website to be out-dated, thus decreasing your traffic.
Now you know why "Content is King" and how Content Marketing helps to grow business!
