As every news media outlet knows, today’s readers have very short attention spans and exhibit little loyalty – they go where they can find the most information, the most well-rounded story. Increasingly, that story is being told off site – not solely on news media online publications, but on social networks. 30% of traffic to media websites comes from social, but these visitors are more fickle than the ones who arrive directly – they spend less time on site, visit fewer pages, and return less often. So engaging these readers is a very challenging job.
Social content is an important part of telling the whole story; the act of curating, selecting, publishing and providing commentary with a perspective on an article, or on events, has become increasingly important.
But what is social media curation exactly?
Social media curation strives to find the best (i.e., most relevant and most accurate) social content for readers to enjoy and to share. The main advantage of curation is that it accelerates the process of discovering relevant content, which is especially crucial for those whose work involves processing large amounts of information.
However, most news media outlets try to tackle this manually and find that curating social content is costly and takes too much time. Instead of ignoring the social media conversation, news media needs to find ways to automate finding & filtering, curating & controlling, and publishing social content alongside editorial content.
