More Ways of Sharing Your Content : Flipboard and We Heart It

Postby cmoneyspinner » 22 Jul 2017, 20:54

Always tweaking your content marketing and sharing strategy? It's a must. You have to in order to survive online.

Using two new tools my online pals turned me on to. At certain sites you visited, you may have noticed their icons in the row or column of social sharing buttons along with the icons for Twitter, Facebook, StumbleUpon, etc. It's a white letter “F” in a red square and a pink "W" in a white heart, in a pink circle, in a white square. Have you seen them?

In one of my other articles, I mentioned using Paper.li to publish your own newsletter. ( https://forumcoin.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=16395 ) If you write or used to write for Niume, you may have noticed an “F” in the row of sharing icons below the post. That's for Flipboard. Instead of a newsletter, Flipboard is like a DIY magazine publishing tool. It's super easy to use. I set up four magazines.

The Fox Web
My I Like Eating Channel
WAH (Work-at-Home) Tips and Tricks
Rx4Wellness Healthcare Info


The Fox Web was my first publication and it was just a test to learn how to use the tool. Figured if I didn't like it I would delete everything. But I loved it! So I created the other 3 magazines to supplement my affiliate marketing websites and blogs.

Then there's We Heart It. If you have a Tumblr blog you may have noticed users sharing images via We Heart It. I did! I had to find out what it was and where those fabulous images were coming from. WHI is like Pinterest but not. You create collections instead of pinboards and group together whatever you like. WHI is being used to complement my business and work, but mainly I use it just because it's fun! I have 6 WHI collections so far.

Art and Photography
My Style
Food Cravings & Lust
MY Movies/TV, Music and Books
No Place Like Home
My Blog Stop! (for sharing posts from my home business blog)

Both Flipboard and We Heart It provide buttons and widgets to help you with additional content circulation. You can put the html coding or script on your websites or blogs.

Consider adding Flipboard and We Heart It to your social media tool kit.

You may not see the value-add of using these tools immediately. Like all social sharing you have to attract followers. But it's another way of sharing your content and both of these networks are gaining ground in the social media arena. Since it's free to create an account and easy to use, might as well go with the flow!

Remember. “Content is king. But Distribution is queen, and she wears the pants.”
