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. .......

7 Qualities of Highly Effective Content Curators

Every time I visit the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, I see something I’ve never seen before. In fact, t’s considered the most influential museum of modern art in the world. With that in mind, meet Klaus Biesenbach. Klaus holds the title “Chief Curator at Large” at MoMA. If you’ve visited the MoMA and walked away impressed (like I have), Klaus has a lot to do with that.


As content curators, we should all aspire to be like Klaus. After all, wouldn’t it be great if our content collections drew as much interest, respect and admiration as the collections at MoMA? In order to achieve this feat, we need to become highly effective content curators. In other words, we need to curate Internet content as we would fine art.

Let’s consider seven habits of content creation that would make Klaus Biesenbach proud.

1. Focus on Goals
What are your goals around content curation? .......

2. Have Empathy
Empathy is defined as “the ability to understand and share the feelings of another.” .......

3. Be Careful, Cautious and Selective
Quality is the number one downfall of ineffective content curators. ......

4. Editorialize
I LOVE going to bookstores and reading a handwritten review from one of the employees. .....

5. Provide Attribution
I bet Klaus Biesenbach wishes he could “hyperlink” exhibit pieces to the artist who created it. .......

6. Understand What’s Timely and Trending
Sharing fresh milk is good. Sharing spoiled milk is rotten. .......

7. Have an Eye for a Great Title
Not everyone will be as thorough as you when reviewing content.  .......
