Content Curation Blueprint

Content Creation is the process of research, aggregation, analysis and organization of web content and presenting it in a meaningful, coherent and organized way.

It is usually done based around a particular topic, or niche.

Content curation suggests that it is carried out by a real person, a human being, rather than by a piece of software or service.

That in turn suggests that the Human Being is a Curator, usually an expert in the field being curated. Due to the vast amounts of data available, and being constantly created every day in huge volume, the task can be time consuming and difficult.

Content is King. That’s why it’s useful.

Every business, entrepreneur and organization needs to produce, or publish content. Creating new content is difficult and time consuming. So acting as a Content Curator is a viable alternative.

Instead of producing the content, curating it is an easier (possibly) option.

What does this mean in term of your reputation?

It presents you as the expert, the trusted source, the one that is ‘in the know’. Gaining this reputation is very valuable as it adds to your brand and builds your social capital.

There is a LOT of content on the web right now. Filtering all that content and presenting 'the best of the web' has become big business.

It's a VERY fashionable thing to do, a very accepted way of building a website, blog, or social media profile. You can even go so far as build your own personal brand around being a top content curator.

There are a lot of BIG sites out there using this model:

For example:

·        The Huffington Post

·        Gawker

·        Tech Crunch

·        Mediaite

·        Pricey Pads

Expert Tips

Use Google Alerts on keywords you are curating.

Use Google Reader to monitor relevant RSS feeds from blogs and news sites

Use iffft to alert you of news

Monitor Google Trends

Monitor Twitter for trending items

Follow other people in your niche on Twitter etc.

Do it differently; if curators in your niche just publish on blogs, create a video or audio daily review of news items?

Do it continuously; people expect it all the time, so either choose a topic you love, or work hard, or outsource it!

 

Content Curation is a powerful method of publishing other peoples content.

You therefore don't have to create content yourself; you 'only' have to act as the publisher, the re-publisher, the curator.

You can build your own personal brand as an expert in your niche, and as the person who is in the know. This will lead to all sorts of opportunities.
