Good Content vs. Technology

On November 20th, In Blogging, Social Media, by Linda Davis

Becoming an expert in social media is more about sharing good content than it is about technology. Let me repeat that for those who consider themselves technology challenged: becoming an expert in social media is more about sharing good content than it is about technology!

You can be a technology wizard with a fancy blog and Facebook page, but if you are not sharing good content, all the bells and whistles in the world on your  websites won’t matter. A simple basic blog, Twitter account or Facebook page with interesting information to share will attract more visitors.

Finding good content can be a challenge. How do you find it? One place in which I like to find content is Zite, an app that is advertised as “a free personalized magazine for your iPad, iPhone or Android that automatically learns what you like and gets smarter every time you use it.”

When you set up Zite, you will first be asked to select the sections in your magazine. Zite will offer suggestions, but you can also enter your own ideas.  I selected sections like Real Estate, Foreclosures, Interior Design, Housing and Connecticut.  After reading an article in Zite, you will be asked, “did you enjoy reading this?”  with “Yes” or “No” options. You also have a choice of  Give me more from the author and Give me more about… Your answers will help personalize your magazine.

Once your Zite online magazine is personalized, you will have tons of ideas and links to share on your blog, on Twitter and on Facebook.
