———-

Content Syndication? What is it? A question I’m getting asked a lot lately…. And how does it fit in with our SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Strategy.

First let’s speak to the big elephant in the room. Matt Cutts of Google has recently came out and said that “gaming the system” is NO longer going to work unless you want to pay a HUGE price in the form of a Google penalty.

If you in Online Marketing and not paying attention to Matt Cutts then your missing out. He shares with you the latest and puts you on the “inside” of Google.

Below is our exact step-by-step system. We call it our Content Syndication “Wild Fire Method”. The ultimate goal is to drive FREE organic traffic to your posts, articles, and other content.

1. Open Your Weekly Content Optimization Checklist and Go To Second Part

You work the system from left to right.

NOTE: This can only be used AFTER a post/article/content is published.

RED are the “Must Do Task” and always to be done.

BLACK are the Items we want to do but IF we have limited time they come second.


 

2-A (on for those who have not set up an account at Posterous) – First Set Up Account then go inside and set up your syndication feed as you see below.

7. Submit To StumbleUpon and Twitter

The tools I recommend for doing this?

For automation and scheduling for later I recommend: www.bufferapp.com and www.hootsuite.com

Both of these have chrome/firefox bookmarklets and/or plugins to help

For on the spot syndication I recommend the “AddThis” plugin for either chrome or firefox which allows you to just pick the service and automoatically post it.


8. Submit To OnlyWire.com (an amazing syndication tool to distribute out to a ton of social networks)
