Content is king in social media, especially when you share!I am proud to say I am number 1 in Google for “Social Media Widgets”. It might come across like I am trying to toot my own horn by posting this…quite the contrary. I am actually shining the spotlight on the need to do 3 things:
- Create unique content that has real value proposition
- Think about SEO and keywords with everything you do
- Share your unique content out in DoFollow Social Media & Niche channels
The result of these three commitments is #1 rankings in Google. For me it made sense to try to rank for “Social Media“. But instead of trying to topple “Social Media” out of the gate, I went after terms that include “Social Media” within. Thus “Social Media Widgets” was one of those terms I identified and alas- won!
In the end, the content I created was valuable enough to drive the #1 ranking- thus making content king! However, if content is king, then SEO is the King’s fuel and sharing in a DoFollow social channels makes for a smart and well nourished King.
