How to curate content like a rockstar

Posted by / March 17, 2014

The amount of quality content that you create will be far less than the social media content that you’ll share which creates a need for more content curation. Sharing a balanced mix of your own content and other’s people’s content is important. Becoming a rockstar brand will take some rockstar content curation.

A few reasons a good idea to share other people’s content:

  • They’ll appreciate it and hopefully reciprocate by sharing your content.
  • It can start a conversation with the person or brand.
  • Being generous is always a good thing.
  • It reenforces your brand message when you boost it with other expert opinions.
  • Provides value to the people who follow you

One of my daily go-to sources for great content is Alltop.  Alltop is “the online magazine rack of the web.” It’s populated by the top blogs from around the web and hundreds of topics are sorted alphabetically for easy search. It’s the ultimate content curation site since you can add the feeds from your favorite blog, they must be on Alltop, to create a personal page of your favorites.

While you’re here, why not set up your custom My Alltop page? It’s quick and easy. Go to My Alltop, set up your account and voila, great information to read and share with your followers. Ready to take your content curation from blah to rockstar level?
