How awesome is it when you share something online that no one else has? You’ll usually know it’s awesome because you’ll receive re-shares, retweets, likes and comments. Good curators are able to experience this on a daily basis. Here’s why you should care about curating content for your social media and how you can do it effectively and efficiently. Via Atomic Reach

(From the article): The great thing about content curation is that it can help support your social media efforts that require your ”live” attention (ie: conversations and discussions). On some networks, like Twitter, a high frequency of tweets raises brand awareness because you have more of a chance to get noticed in someone’s busy timeline. But let’s be honest, we can not be online 24/7, so content curation comes to the rescue in keeping your social presence up.

When identifying influencers as part of your social media and content marketing program, topic match and popularity are not enough to qualify an influencer
Brian Fanzo's insight:
"By effective, I mean the ability and likelihood that a person can actually inspire action amongst a community." -Because this data was taken over a 2month time period I believe its valuable and current but also doesn't tell an extended story but at the same time with as much change and how quickly "who influences who changes..it is important with social data we focus on today & tomorrow as the past is old and out of the date and the future we can't predict.. If you were doing this list or the research how far back would you look at data to know how influential someone was today?

This infographic produced by BoostSuite talks about a few stats regarding the use of content marketing in small businesses. Notably, their survey found that 87% of small businesses are publishing content online weekly. It's clear that web content is ruling marketing these days, and staying visible is becoming increasingly difficult. Publishing online on a consistent basis is the best way to stay top of mind. Further, BoostSuite found that over half of small businesses spend more than two hours creating each piece of web content. If you're running or working for a small business, you know that this is not ideal. Who has two hours to spend per day, or even every other day, creating one piece of content? Supplementing this created content with curation can save a lot of that time with an even higher output.
