Jump in our chat to participate weekly at 11 am EST on Thursdays =>MyBlogGuest Twitter chat
This is our last chat of April, so we’ll change a format a bit. We won’t have the usual PUSH Thursday where we would discuss some good examples of guest articles. We won’t put our members in the spotlight for the time being.
Instead, we’ll make it an educational edition where we will share very BEST content marketing tips of the month.
So let’s get started:
Two on Creating GREAT Content
1. How you can create content that generates 40000 targeted visitors by @backlinko via @noahkagan

…when you hit your WordPress “publish” button, you’re one of 1,999,999 other people doing the exact same thing…
That’s a very impressive way to show us WHY we need to be serious about standing out!
@seosmarty with your twitter following… have you posted just a question on your blog and let the content grow with comments? #myblogguest

@kevmassey I never tried that but I noticed people are more willing to comment via social than on-site nowadays… #myblogguest

2. How to create content that goes hot on Buzzfeed via @leverable by @GuestBlogTips
This one is special. Besides being an actually great educational read, it also comes straight from ViralContentBuzz dashboard – The day will come when ALL great articles I find will be through #VCBuzz dashboard. I’ll have nowhere else to look!
With creativity it's easier… just add your personality 😉 RT @luanatf: @seosmarty @myblogguest Tough to be .. original! #myblogguest

Questions can be a great way to hook the reader. You may want to consider using them in titles since the data shows they tend increase the likelihood that your post will go viral.
@seosmarty Yep! I like to get in touch with people who had my same idea, actually. 🙂 There's no need for greed, I think #myblogguest

Two On Promoting Your Content
3. 17 Advanced Methods for Promoting Your New Piece of Content by @IAmAaronAgius
Any time you mention someone, interview someone, include a link to someone’s article, etc., email that person to let them know you’ve done so.
Aaron’s article is great but it misses one important tip: ViralContentBuzz 🙂 So far it’s the most efficient promotional method for my content.
4. Content Promotion: The Difference Between Brands with Fans & Anonymous Content by @LarryKim of @Wordstream
Greatest quote:
Content promotion matters because SEO is a terrible tactic for brand building. SEO allows you to target people who know what they’re looking for but aren’t sure where to get it.
