Hi everyone!
Today, I’m choosing to talk all about great content curation tools. I think there are awesome ways you can find and curate great content for your business, website, blog, and readers. Tools make life so much easier—right?
Lets Curate It
#1. Scoop.It. If you’re not on this awesome platform already, you should be. To start curating, just sign up, create your topic of interest, and scoop to your topic from what’s already out there on Scoop.it or what you’ve created yourself. Check out the FAQ for some initial guidance.
#2. Quora. Your questions, from your audience, are waiting for you to discover on this awesome platform. I look up copywriting, and I see people asking for the top resources on copywriting, or a specific way of how to write headlines. So I go create blogs that answer their questions, using my expertise.

Creating Great Headlines: 2 Awesome Resources
With some of our content orders, many times our writers will create the blog / article piece and the headline. Some clients will provide their own, but most of the time, we create an original headline.
For inspiration, we utilize two awesome tools out there that are great for helping writers come up with headlines that stand out, using all the right adjectives, grabbing your attention, etc.:
- Portent’s Title Maker: http://www.portent.com/tools/title-maker &
- Hubspot’s Blog Topic Generator: http://www.hubspot.com/blog-topic-generator
Basically, if you plugin a keyword or a couple words, the generators give you full topic ideas. (Disclaimer: Remember, they’re machines not humans. So, a couple times their results may be way off. Use with judgment!)
Lastly, if you haven’t seen our Content Strategy services (that include content curation), it’s time to look into them!
