DIY Approach to Content Syndication
As with everything, if you're operating on a budget, there are ways of accomplishing content syndication on your own. Here are the top 5 platforms we recommend syndicating your content on (for free). If you want access to news sites, we're always here to help. But if you need to go it alone for budgetary reasons, we salute you and want to help in any way we can!
So without further adieu:
Medium - You've likely used this platform before. But here's the special sauce you can cash in on: it's a high domain authority site. So simply by virtue of landing your content on it (even if the article you're using already exists on other sites) you're getting the benefit of that domain's authority for your website. Just make sure you create the backlink!
Slideshare - Widely used to disseminate powerful ideas through a visual experience, Slideshare offers a unique way of getting your content in front of more eyeballs, and pointing those eyeballs back to your business' domain.
Quora - Quora.com is an excellent site for meeting people's problems with solutions only your business is qualified to provide. Opening up an account is easy. If the information is widely sought after it can bring in more traffic to your site over a relatively short amount of time.
LinkedIn - Yes, LinkedIn. The very same platform you likely never touch until you find yourself suddenly searching for a new job and now find an immediate need to beef up on your job history details. It also provides its users with an incredible platform for content syndication.
SoundCloud - If you've never entertained the notion of building out a podcast, you might reconsider now. Reading your content aloud and then syndicating it through an audio file is an often missed opportunity to build your backlink portfolio.
If you've looked through all of this and still want assistance, don't fret. We're here to help so you can focus on your business!
Keep in mind that if you've at least struggled with accomplishing some of the things suggested above, you're bound to intuitively understand the process better (which will make you a more solid digital operator). But if you need a break, we're here to deliver! Content syndication is just a click away :). Try our Media Boost product to get started.
