Slideshare The Visual Marketing SEO RPG - NEW @Scoopit BLOW IT UP Study

Slideshare The Visual Marketing SEO RPG - NEW @Scoopit BLOW IT UP Study | BI Revolution | Scoop.it

Scoop.it Study
I've often thought Slideshare was the great underutilized weapon of content marketing. Thinking that and having the data to prove are two different things.

Thanks to the team at Scoop.it we now have the data to prove what I've FELT. In an extensive study the Scoop.it team shifted my thinking on Slideshare.

Always knew Slideshare was POWERFUL SEO VooDoo because I've had several decks BLOW UP such as:

http://www.slideshare.net/martinmartysmith/storytelling-new-seo 
Absolute #1 position on "Storytelling is the new SEO" and has been top ranked for over a year.

http://www.slideshare.net/martinsellingzoe/content-marketing-network 
This deck held on for a year and has slide out of ranking now.

You don't get much more SEO competitive than "Storytelling is the New SEO" and "Content Marketing Network so personal validation supports the Scoop.it team's great work here.

The other paradigm they shifted for me today was thinking of Slideshare as an important "visual marketing" tool. Decks are LEAN, FAST and VIRAL so great ways to share and build authority and traffic. Just wish I could get my Slideshare profile styled better. Anyone know the secret sauce for that?

Great work Scoopiteers!

How Storytelling Is The New SEO Went Viral Thanks to POWERFULL Friends

How Storytelling Is The New SEO Went Viral Thanks to POWERFULL Friends | BI Revolution | Scoop.it
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

Storytelling Is The NEW SEO on SlideShare's home page (bottom row, 2nd from right thanks to Ally Greer for the alert :)

2200 + Views In A Day

Some will tell you it is impossible to have content go viral. That powerful forces control the viral headlands. They are (controlled by powerful forces), but it isn't (impossible to have content YOU create go viral).


Here is a blow by blow of how Story Telling Is The New SEO trended enough to be included on the cover of Slideshare today (something I know about from an alert from friends here @Scoopit, Storytelling is bottom row 2nd from right).

 

Storytelling Is The New SEO Story

I'm presenting Storytelling Is The New SEO tomorrow night at @1918's (Phil Buckley's) SEO Meetup (more info here: http://www.meetup.com/RaleighSEO/events/100105202/

I've been thinking about the "secret" implications of Google's algorithm changes. Navneet Panda helped Google see just how dirty our rooms have become and then they armed a Penguin to make sure we got the message and SEO life, as we knew it was OVER.


Storytelling as practiced by REI, Patagonia and others is the KEY to high engagement and Google is clear on want HIGH ENGAGEMENT from your content. 


VIRAL = Good To Have POWERFULL Friends
If you want to have your content go viral it is good to have powerful friends. Storytelling Is The New SEO started going viral because of Scoop.it. The first shares came from my embed on Design Revolution. There are almost 400 shares from that embed as I write this.

I douibled down with Facebook, Twitter, G+, LinkedIn, Tumblr and Pinterest support, but Scoop.it got the ball rolling. Then, once Storytelling Is The Next SEO was trending Slideshare put it on their home page and blew it up (now over 2,300 views and 57 downloads).

I've had several posts go viral and there is always a powerful mentor in the loop. Storytelling proves, once again, it is important to have powerful friends (those you've met and know and others you may not know) to have content go viral. 

 

Will be presenting Storytelling Is The New SEO LIVE tomorrow night starting at 6:30 at Phil's SEO Meetup. Find event details here: https://plus.google.com/events/c46hqgi89ig21oef90qafggoiho

Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:

Excellent Slideshare on the curation and marketing. 

Adam Donkus's curator insight, May 9, 2013 1:21 PM

Curation sites are becoming hugely important in our online marketing campaigns. Additionally, often times blog posts that are nothing more than a list of currated links on a certain niche tend to do really well.

Luke Hancock - H&H Social Design's curator insight, May 13, 2013 4:13 PM

Interesting take to curate content of your competitors or curating content that offers a different editorial from your content. I do agree, it will lend to you being more of a thoughts leader without the agenda. 

 

The presentation picks up a lot of steam with their curation tips in the final third of the slides. Enjoy
