Top autofill search results for the phrase “is content marketing…” turn up results like: “is content marketing worth it;”” “is content marketing dead;”” “is content marketing digital marketing;”” and “is content marketing effective.”” Autofill results for a search of “is content…” turn up: “is content still king;”” “is content creation a skill;”” “is content creation profitable;”” and “is content creator a real job.”” Yikes.
