Shenzhen SOEs Shift Focus: Quality Content Boosts Engagement Amid Publication Drop
1min read In September 2024, the Shenzhen State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission's new media performance was highlighted by a decline in content volume but an increase in user engagement. Despite a drop in the number of articles published by nearly half of the accounts, the interactions on these platforms have risen. This suggests that users are increasingly engaging with high-quality content on these state-owned enterprises' new media accounts, highlighting an essential shift toward content quality rather than quantity in digital communications strategies.
The performance assessment of the official accounts indicates a varied engagement across different sectors. Shenzhen Metro led in influence, amassing over 40,000 engagements, followed by a significant presence in recruitment-themed content amounting to 219 articles in September. This demonstrates a strategic emphasis on talent acquisition, reflecting the dynamic employment market and the interest of job seekers in state-owned enterprises as prospective employers.
During the Mid-Autumn and National Day holidays, 60 articles with themes of travel and safety education were published, showing high reader interest in seasonal topics. This strategic content release signals a savvy understanding of public interests during holiday periods, leveraging the engagement potential tied to popular themes.
Among individual accounts, Shenzhen Talent Group led in terms of article numbers, with a total of 223 posts, while engagement on posts concerning concepts of holiday and recruitment reflected a growing public interest in career opportunities and festive content. Conversely, even companies with lower output, such as Shenzhen Free Trade Zone, noted growth in audience reach with a single post achieving notable interaction, underscoring the unpredictable nature of digital engagement metrics.
Ultimately, the data-driven approach to refining content strategies based on user engagement rather than sheer output could serve as a pivotal learning point for other entities embroiled in the competitive digital landscape. This month demonstrated that well-targeted, quality content substantially boosts user interaction, driving home the importance of focusing on content relevance and audience connectivity.
