How to Get Your Slice From Slideshare’s 70 Million Monthly Visitors

How to Get Your Slice From Slideshare’s 70 Million Monthly Visitors | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Do you know that over 80% of Slideshare’s 70 million monthly visitors come from targeted search?

This indicates that Slideshare is a great opportunity to get your brand tremendous exposure and build a relationship with the right audience.

But, it’s one of the most misunderstood platform by marketers. Only 15% of marketers used Slideshare in 2014. Since it’s an underused medium, it’s easier to get onto, for tapping into new audiences and generating traffic and leads.

Want a teaser of the results that you can expect from the presentation-sharing platform?...

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Slideshare is an underutilized source of quality traffic and business leads. Neil Patel shows how to get your share.

I’ve seen complete beginners to internet marketing create and upload slide decks and – without any promotion –  generate thousands of views to their slides, drive traffic to their sites and move their business to another level.


If you think Facebook and Twitter drive more targeted leads than SlideShare, think again. One study by Did It found that SlideShare gets about 500% more traffic from business owners than Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube....

How To Build Your Following On SlideShare

How To Build Your Following On SlideShare | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it
SlideShare is a valuable tool that is shockingly under utilized. It provides a platform for recycling content, providing quick fire information in a memorable way, creating useful presentations, and attracting a user base that is more visual in their learning style.

However it’s not just a social media network – it’s also a great asset you can rely on for additional exposure.

Building a following on SlideShare is like building your email list: It has a huge long-term potential allowing you to diversify your traffic sources and build a more independent web presence.

4 Ways to Maximize Your SlideShare Presentation

4 Ways to Maximize Your SlideShare Presentation | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Presentations are one of the most underrated ways to project content and thought leadership about a particular topic.


Though longer in length, a presentation has the ability to deliver information in summaried, visual elements that give the reader a chance to learn about a topic quickly and with a takeaway. One such platform that allows for the sharing, downloading, and social engagement of presentations is Slideshare. The presentation company, acquired by professional networking company LinkedIn in May 2012 allows users to upload presentations in PowerPoint, PDF, Keynote, or OpenDocument.


A SlideShare presentation when created well can generate a tremendous amount of traffic. Check out these 4 tips for maximizing a SlideShare Presentation....

How to Get Featured on the Front Page of SlideShare | Venngage

How to Get Featured on the Front Page of SlideShare | Venngage | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Let’s put it this way–if there are 70 million business owners looking at the content on SlideShare every month, then there is a good opportunity for you to take advantage of that traffic and redirect some of it back to your own site.

But here are a couple of problems I have encountered in my attempt to upload content to SlideShare:

  • If you’re not on the featured page, you probably won’t get a whole lot of traffic.
  • Presentations that are on the featured page seem to stay there for more than a week.


So if whatever I create will only get me tons of traffic if it makes it to the featured section, but I can’t get on to the featured section unless I can prove my content is worthwhile, and it takes FOREVER for the featured section to rotate content, then I might as well just give up because life seems too impossible right now, right?

 

Wrong.

Being the impatient person that I am, I decided that rather than figuring out how to get my presentation to the featured section on my own, I would ask the pros. After all, these are people whose presentations have been featured multiple times and who seem to have the method down pat!

I personally reached out to every single one of the experts listed below and got some exclusive nuggets of wisdom, which I will now share with you and the rest of the world. Instead of giving you false information that would likely lead you on a wild SlideShare goose chase, I’ve rounded up some highly actionable tips from the ones who have mastered SlideShare altogether....

Unfortunately, there isn’t nearly enough information out there on how to best utilize Slideshare for this purpose. The articles that exist are usually a few years out of date, and don’t take into account the changes that have occurred more recently. Or indeed look at the culture as it exists today, and how people take advantage of the platform.


New ways to use Slideshare will be coming as new features are released and we see more site integration with third party platforms.


For now, here are some ways you can build your own personal brand using the slideshow network....

7 Dead-Simple Ways to Improve Slide Decks

7 Dead-Simple Ways to Improve Slide Decks | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it
Slide decks are a powerful way to back up any type of presentation from team meetings and sales pitches to conference keynotes and workshops. We've all seen presentations with poor design that takes away from talks, and at worse, completely distracts the intended audience. However, most presenters aren't graphic designers. Slide decks can be frustrating to build, and great slide decks help communicate what an audience needs to hear.

At Moz, I've had the pleasure of working with many speakers on their decks, whether for a  biweekly webinar or for MozCon. And while you aren't going to turn into a god of slide decks overnight, there are some easy ways to go from terrible to decent. Decent won't get you heaps of praise for a deck, but it also won't leave a sour taste in someone's mind about your slide skills and will allow them to focus on what you actually have to say.
