Archive your content for reuse and make more money
A lot of time, effort, and money go into crafting great content. When building your stories in WoodWing Studio, final versions can be archived either manually or automatically. Because all layouts, articles, images, other assets, as well as their relations, are stored in WoodWing Assets, users can quickly retrieve content for reuse and republishing. This way, you can monetize the same content multiple times.
It helps to:
- Quickly find and reuse the assets you’re looking for, no matter how old or new
- Eliminate teams from recreating or repurchasing existing digital assets
- Publish great content faster and increase its lifetime value.
Track your image usage
Usage information of digital assets (like images) in WoodWing Studio is stored in WoodWing Assets. This information is of great value when gathering content and images for publication.
Usage information helps you to monitor:
- Which channels an image is used on
- When the wrong image is being used
- Images are being shown in a channel too often
- ‘Same day’ duplicate content
- View and download count.
And because you now have full control and insights in where content and images have been published, you are able to reuse content efficiently and safely across multiple publications and brands.
