Twitter has become an important part of many peoples\u2019 lives. With 300 million monthly active users and approximately 500 million tweets being sent out every single day, who wouldn\u2019t want to be a part of that?<\/p>\n
Today, I\u2019d like to talk about how I use Twitter as a social media content curation tool for my clients as well as for my personal use.<\/p>\n
Content curation is basically sorting through data that we receive every day (images, videos, blogs, memes, etc.) and taking out the most attention-grabbing content to share with followers or clients.<\/p>\n
Even if you are able to write great articles for your readers, sharing thought-provoking pieces by other writers brings in a fresh perspective that your followers and clients will surely appreciate. Reading content from one person\u2019s point of view can become boring after a period of time.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s face it. There are times when you have difficulty coming up with new ideas or new topics to write. Content curation can help you in these situations.<\/p>\n
When you share content that is relevant to your field, it still shows your expertise. People know that you have answers when they need help, whether it is through your own content or a resource that you shared.<\/p>\n
Sharing content that engages your audience can bring more people into discussions about your brand. This may also bring in new connections with thought-leaders in your field.<\/p>\n
When you curate content, you get a glimpse of current trends in your field. You see new topics, discussions, and opinions of other people in your industry.<\/p>\n

2. The \u201cWho to follow\u201d recommendations (See the red box in the picture) will also give you ideas on who to follow and what content to curate based on your current search or your own interests or profile.<\/p>\n
After following people or organizations that you want to curate content from, here are the next steps you should take:<\/p>\n
These lists help organize and curate feeds and make it easier for you to digest content that is relevant to you. You can create a Twitter List for clients and another one for your personal interests. You can also subscribe to other users\u2019 lists. As a result, you can easily see content that you like whenever you need it. You just click on the list you want to view and scroll through the members\u2019 updates anytime you check on it.<\/p>\n
You can also create Twitter lists using Hootsuite:<\/p>\n
Subscribe to news sites, blogs, and other publications that regularly produce the type of content you want to share.<\/p>\n
You can share content immediately on Twitter. However, if you find several articles you want to share, do not flood your followers\u2019 feeds. Spread them out by using:<\/p>\n
Twitter is a great tool to use in curating content that you can share with clients and friends. You may not see results in the beginning but with perseverance, you will find that it is worth it once you\u2019ve established your social media presence and online reputation.<\/p>\n
Just remember that despite having several tools at your disposal to help you curate content, building a relationship with your audience is still the most important factor if you want to succeed.<\/p>\n
