Curation Soft 3.0 : Your Pro Blog Editor at Your Own Dasboard
What is CurationSoft?
Almost
all of blogger do the same thing, and if you have done any of that work before,
you should know that doing so has many benefits, but is also very time
consuming. That’s mean; you can always scour your friend’s blogs, do a search,
visit news sites or other trusted sources available to you. But then, there is
the matter of putting them all together, by copying and pasting, editing, among
other things.
You
can find it in Wikipedia or another Dictionary and there will probably be more
of articles out there that will give you definitions as to what curation or
content curation is. In a simple manner lets me asking you a question. Have you
ever created a “roundup”, “mash up” or some sort, or a “resource list” in your
website or blog? But remembers not just scrapping it. In another word, choose a
topic, research for the best articles out there, combine them into a post,
publish, and share it to the world. That’s curating content! Bear in mind, that
curating is one thing, and scrapping is another.
The Simple, Easy and Effective
Way to Generate Content without the Writing
Well,
that’s the story conventional blogger and it is over now. With CurationSoft,
creating curate content has taken a different level. Think of it as your
content creation assistant. Just think of a topic you want to curate, and
CurationSoft will do the heavy lifting for you. Actually this idea not new and
just takes a look at the vast amount of websites that help curate content for
you. You can try Paper.li, Scoop. It, Bundlr and more. But remember there are
big different think in between. In that
system you are curating content on their property and not on yours. The idea is
to generate fresh content in your website that is relevant to your topic and
are high authority and of great quality. After all, that is what content
curation is all about.
CurationSoft
publishes content directly on your property. It works on Word Press or other
blog CMS without a middle man. It even works on Google+. Connecting what you
curate to your site is obviously more advantageous than doing it on other
sites. From now on I publish a weekly “roundup” and combine it with my idea for
helping my reader and it has been doing well.
CurationSoft
comes with two versions so I will share some of the pros and cons of both as we
slide through the CurationSoft review.
Try The FREE version Download Here
CurationSoft
does have a limited free version that you can use to test it out. With the new free
version, you can grab loads of links and resources from popular blogs within
your niche, and it cuts a lot of time off of finding and creating simple
resource lists for your blog.
Simply
fire up the software and enter your keywords to start browsing through all the
most relevant blogs in your niche. It pulls from the Google Blog Search
results, so it is showing the latest and greatest content on blogs in Google’s
index. The down side to the free version is that it is limited to Google Blog
Search, which gives you fewer resources that you can find in your niche. Some
niches don’t even have any good blogs to curate from.
The
Best or Full Version
Getting
the full version of CurationSoft is the best way to go. Using it you would have
found TONS of resources that you can use to add a lot more value to your
list. I have used it to create curation
posts that my readers love, share awesome resources that I follow myself, and
get people to like and socially share my posts, driving even more traffic to my
blog.
Another
advantage to the full version is all the resources you can pull content from.
On top of searching Google Blogs, you can also find loads of resources that you
can share using some popular sites like:
Google News–
Curate the latest and hottest news feeds and press releases in your niche, with
seconds of work!
Twitter – Find
tweets on your topic and cool people that you can follow yourself, quick and
easy integration
Flickr –
Find great images without blowing your limited budget. But you can get loads of
royalty free images with proper attribution links already in place, so that you
can add them to your posts quickly and easily.
YouTube –
Videos are an amazing thing to add to your site. With CurationSoft, you can
Browse Hundreds of videos fast and easy. You can use it to find awesome videos
and share them on your blogs without wasting time. Just a click. You can even use it to post your OWN videos
without messing with extra plugging.
Here’s a quick presentation of
how CurationSoft works.
As
you can see, that was relatively easy. Content curation can help a great deal
with your online content.

alone knows that the web is saturated with more content than anyone knows what
to do with.

But even then 77% of internet users read blogs,
81% of US customers buy based on recommendation from their favorite blogs and

The KEY is not to create more content. But to
organize, present and provide solid meaning to existing content. This is where
content curation comes in.
Who
is a Content Curator?
A
Content Curator is someone who not only finds, groups, organizes and shares the
best and most relevant content on a specific topic, but also provides her
expertise on the topic.
Let
‘s break it down: Find; Group; Organize; Share the best; Share
the most relevant; Provide expertise; and We should add the following:
Content

from various sources on the web for this keyword (article relevance to keyword
is of paramount importance)
