One of my clients asked me about the benefits of SlideShare and SEO. I decided to poke around online and see what I could find and how people are using this social media site that appears to be targeted to businesses (hence the presentation part).
I found this informative, introductory article for the new Slidesharers out there. It touches on relatively easy and basic SEO techniques for optimizing each presentation (tagging, titles, etc). SocialSEO also gave us some creative, out-side-of-the-box ideas on how to create more presentations:
- Explain a complex business process that could use a few visual aids
- Create “how to” tutorials
- Give a sales presentation
- Show off pictures from an event
- Breathe some life to case studies
- Bring existing presentations to the web
- Repurpose old articles by turning the main points into a presentation
Our Charlotte SEO company is working to help make our clients more visible online. Increasingly important, companies need to build their social community by engaging customers, becoming resilient to negative feedback and implementing the ’sharing’ factor. Sharing presentations ( like on SlideShare), coupons on Google Places, asking for feedback on Facebook and connecting Twitter followers with popular news is eminent in the realm of today’s social media marketing.
