Adding Curation To Enhance My Self Improvement Content
There is a major shift happening in the world of content marketing.
But first, what’s “content marketing?”
It’s what bloggers and marketers do when they put up content that they want the search engines to rank and readers to flock to in order to build recognition.
Basically, anyone who uses content to attract search engine visitors and has the ability to get real people linking to and buzzing about their site is a content marketer.
In the past few months a certain type of content marketing has started to get very popular. It’s called “curation” and it has many benefits over traditional content marketing models.
1. Curation allows content publishers to create a lot more content around a lot more keywords in the same amount of time they currently spend on content development.
2. This enables you to score for a lot more keyword rankings, leading to more daily site visitors.
3. It also enables you to keep readers engaged and loyal to your source of information because you filter through all the information on a topic and present them with the best of the best info on the topic.
4. You write less original content yourself and, often, put together more valuable content to readers at the same time.
5. Enables one-writer-sites to look and feel like they have a small staff of writers.
6. Posting more often gives more opportunities for something to go viral on social networks, which gives readers more to “Like”, Retweet and +1 on Google+.
7. Increases your authority score with Google because of the increased social signals Google finds for your site.
