How’s the visual appeal of your content marketing? Is it decidedly mediocre or outstanding? Here are 4 tools to enhance the images in your content marketing
Gina Tucker:

images have a HUGE impact on the readability of the content you share. Most content sharing tools will let you adjust  the images attached to your piece of content that make them as visually appealing as possible. Some bloggers tend to opt for smaller images with more text, but here at Scoop.it we believe that large and colorful images will have the biggest impact on your content.

rodrick rajive lal's curator insight, December 9, 2014 1:53 AM

These are some interesting infographics that provide a pictorial representation of data in a form that can be easily understood. In an age where the quantum of data is increasing exponentially, it has become extremely important to use infographics. Raw data and statistics can become a turn off, especially for those who don't have an eye for figures! Infographics are being used very successfully in schools and colleges to present information in an easily assimilable form.

When you are a company getting started with your social media strategy, what do you usually ask? 


Probably something like "Where should I promote my stuff?"; "Do I need to be everywhere?"; "What's the best time to post content?"


Chances that you are forgetting a very important question: "What is the source of my rich content?" In other words, where should my content come from? 


The answer is in this excellent piece penned by Mark Schaefer. Read it at http://www.businessesgrow.com/2013/02/10/the-one-core-secret-to-social-media-marketing-success/  

Gina Tucker:

Always attribute the source of your content.

It's been a while now that SEO experts such as Lee Odden or Rand Fishkin have commented on the algorithm changes of Google that completely changed SEO from an obscure technical back linking technique to a much more human ability to produce content humans enjoy and like to share. 


This post gives a number of actionable tips on how to implement a successful SEO strategy in 2014. 


But beyond the list of tips, SEO today boils down mostly to publishing content that your targeted audience will enjoy: because it educates, it entertains them, it informs them, etc...


And therefore the key to success is being consistent which - as the above chart shows - is the main challenge today: producing a constant stream of high quality content is not just tough, it's impossible. Even major media groups have given up on this as they got beaten by the Huffington Post (which this post is interestingly from), BuzzFeed and Upworthy. Mixing your own content with curated content however does not only makes this possible but also makes your entire site and publishing efforts more credible

Standard On-Page SEO Practices still apply because this is the entry point for Google to know what a page is about and index it correctly.  But, creating great content is what it is all about.  -Ken

Writing effective social media posts is a science, here are a few tips to improve your performance
Gina Tucker:

Want your brand to resonate with your audience on social media? Make your posts long enough to gather trust, short enough to keep your group's attention, and make them compatible on different devices (mobile vs browser). Post with a purpose. Don't simply promote your brand, use content to demonstrate knowledge about your industry as a whole and let yourself become a thought leader. Give your posts time to simmer, don't let them fade if you spent a lot of time on them!

Small businesses may struggle to keep up with their larger competitors when it comes to content marketing. While creating original content is essential, curation can help keep your website up-to-date with content that, while not original, will help both with SEO and with reader engagement, at a fraction of the cost and time.
