Content, Friends and Time - The New SEO ScentTrail Marketing

Content, Friends and Time - The New SEO ScentTrail Marketing | Curation Revolution | Scoop.it

Marty Note
Wrote this piece today in my head sitting in a meeting. We discussed what content marketers do for a living. I realized our main Internet marketing craft is creating content that lives across time via social shares. This post discusses why who, how, when and why you link to is almost as important as the content you are writing.

Turns out we need to have yet one more Internet marketing strategy - a link strategy - or our content won't live as long or go as far. This post describes how to think about your links as part of the chess of content marketing.

Thought Leaders Share Content Marketing & Curation

Thought Leaders Share Content Marketing & Curation | Curation Revolution | Scoop.it

Lee Odden CEO at Toprankblog interviewed 10 thought leaders on content marketing and curation. The article was published one year ago but is still really relevant, probably even more. I love the approach of Brian Solis who asks the good questions :

"Obviously you (as a company) have something to contribute, something to say, something of value to offer which is mostly likely why you’re in business. I need to hear about that."

 

Curation offers the opportunity to settle this dialogue between a brand and its users, becoming always more engaging. It's not enough to be here, you have to be here to say. As says Ann Handley, Chief Content Officer at @marketingprofs, "All organizations are now publishers — meaning, the company with the most engaging and interesting content is the one who wins."

@Internet Billboards
Getting ready to launch in the next couple of weeks - it's way more than a blog:-) I will be writing original articles as well as curating. Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate it.

Hi Jan, thank you for sharing this. :-)

I wanted to let you know that your last link, the bit.ly one isn't good. It has an extra square bracket at the end making it unusable.

Also: I think it would be very appropriate when curating something that is over a year old to say so explicitly as it is an extra element of immediate evaluation for the reader.

Keep it up!

Hi Robin,

Thanks for letting me know about the link, I just fixed it.

I will add your revision to the post, you're absolutely right, an oversight here:-)
