5 Ways to Increase the Visibility of Your Curated Content

I was recently asked by Bill Gasset: “how does one go about being in the recommended feed in the side panel for a specific topic?” As this is a question we frequently have, I thought I would turn my answer to him into a blog post so we can not only help other Scoopiteers benefit from it but also enrich it with your comments, ideas and suggestions.

1. Suggest content to other fellow curators, targeting those in your interests.
For instance, as a real-estate expert, you can go to the Real Estate interest through the navigation menu next to the search field and find the recommended topics and users in there. .....

2. Just scoop it!  
By default, new topics have the latest and best scoops which match their keywords among their suggested content (on top of content crawled by our semantic technology through other sources such as Twitter, blogs, etc…). ....

3. Scoop your original content
While scooping only original content could defeat the purpose, adding it to your curation brings an additional distribution channel as explained by Ally here (tip #9). .......

4. Earn recommendations and badges
Interest channels mentioned above prominently feature the topics which have earned recommendations from other users. .........

5. Build your community of interest
Every time you follow, rescoop or recommend another curators’ content, they receive a notification. .......
