Notas do Editor

  1. I like being on page 1 of Google results for some searches. Do YOU ever look at page 17?
  2. Not just SEO!
  3. NOT the same as your traditional marketing materials, brochures, etc.
  4. Recent stats on content marketing. It’s EVERYWHERE!
  5. DON’T BORE PEOPLE. They don’t care about your mission statement!
  6. Various kinds of content work better at different stages of the buying cycle.
  7. Content marketing helps you answer the question – WHAT are we going to SAY on our social media accounts?
  8. Paul Lima writes about freelance writing. He helps solve writers’ problems.
  9. Use Twitter to amplify your OWN content, plus curate content from others.
  10. G+ is getting more and more popular. Important trend: GOOGLE AUTHORSHIP!
  11. People keep talking about information overload. NOT TRUE! It’s filter failure. You’ve probably seen this quote many times in the past couple of years. Remember it. SO – it’s not that we have too much info. It’s just that we are doing a lousy job of filtering it.
  12. Todd suggests 70% of your content should be curated and 30% branded because the rest of the world is at least 70% more interesting than your brand. Plus, promoting external content builds social capital, and makes grateful fans of influencers.
  13. Adobe runs and maintains CMO.com for Chief Marketing Officers.  Contains both original thought leadership content as well as more frequently updated curated content from various marketing oriented publications such as BizReport, Adage and MediaPost among others.  Adobe has taken the high ground by positioning this as a vendor neutral-site with a minimal sponsorship advertisement.
  14. Verne Global, wholesale supplier of data centre space, achieves global recognition as green IT leader using Curata
  15. You don’t have to spend a fortune to curate.
  16. Power of syndication
  17. If you have a fantastic blog post but no one knows about it, what’s the point?
