Organize Your Content for Curation.  Organizing your content is a powerful way to bring older content to the surface to give it a greater shelf life and help your audience discover more relevant materials. Whether you are curating or creating content as a part of your content strategy, the organization of content plays a powerful role in adding context and making content evergreen.

Why is the organization of content important ?   As more marketers publish more content, organization plays a greater role. Let’s say you curate 10 pieces of content a day. In a year, you may easily publish more than 3,000 pieces of content.  Now that you have such a large volume, you can provide that content to your readers in interesting ways, through intelligent organization.

As content marketing — and content curation — continues to grow, marketers will be publishing more and more content on behalf of their organizations.  Content curation is a three-part process of finding relevant content, organizing it, and sharing it to a broader audience. Often, most of the emphasis is placed on finding or sharing interesting content, and the organization aspect gets neglected. However, when done correctly, smart organization strategies can help you get more mileage out of your content, and help you engage and inform your audience more successfully.
