How Does Content Curation Work?
Content curation is a fairly simple process. Check it out –
1. Find your sources: quality content comes from quality sources
2. Curate and add commentary: give your unique 2 cents
3. Publish your curated piece of content: on your blog post, for example
4. Promote through social media, email newsletters, etc.
The Best Content To Curate
Gathering quality content takes a keen eye and some sly sleuthing (not really). Be the first to find and share the newest content through these simple channels:
- subscribe to blogs through an RSS feed
- follow influencers on social media
- sign up for Google alerts for one or more of your primary keywords
Get Started With Curation
So you’ve got your content, now where to post these things? Great question. You can choose across several platforms. Just a few examples are blog roundups, email newsletters, or social media.
Word Up:
Time to share others’ great content. It keeps you from sounding like a self-promotional broken record while providing a ton of benefits for you, the original poster, and your audience. Score!
