Content “Curation” is a way of reproducing another author’s knowledgeable content on your blog, with a mention and a direct link back to the original content.
An example would be… “Creating and Curating content is a powerful way of establishing yourself in your industry, demonstrating your stance on important topics and setting the tone for your brand” ~socialnewsdaily.com by Zac
It also does much more, as you will see in this article. Good things for your blog like attracting more traffic to your blog, sharing links, better ratings on Google, credibility, and organization of information that your readers would like to read. Also create good will and relationships too!
What is Content Curation anyway?
Curate – “the act of finding, organizing, annotating (contextualizing) and sharing the most relevant and highest quality digital content on a specific topic for a target market.” ~Curata.com Glossary
Content curation “As a rule, content curation reproduces some of the original content and links to the full entry. Some content curation sites also provide original content, interpretation, and commentary.” ~whatis.techtarget.com by Margaret Rouse
People can build their blogs with their own original content, but also include relevant content from credible sites around the world. They are able to publish more frequently and with less effort. The content that is produced attracts your target audience, builds your brand and creating relationships.

Hi Kathryn,
Content is a great idea for elaborating on an existing topic as well. There is only so much time and space to grab a reader’s attention, so anything that you can use to make another’s article more valuable is a win-win for both, as well as the connecting links. Thanks Kathryn. Great plan.
Hi BG,
There is great content everywhere on line these days. When you connect to someone’s expertise for your readers, they do appreciate it.
A win win for everyone as you said. Thanks for visiting, do come again! Thanks for your comments.

I agree with you. Content curation is very common in the blogging world and it’s beneficial for both the parties if doing in the right way. Right way means proper mentions and link backs.
