Explosive Content Promotion Strategies

Let us take a look at the 20 best tried-out techniques that can help in content promotion.

1. BlogEngage & BizSugar Submissions

BlogEngage and BizSugar were actually both channels that have never been used in the past but have been recommended quite often. From a known source, I have come to know that BizSugar submission can drive thousands of visitors per day.

2. LinkedIn Group Shares

LinkedIn helps in the promotion of content. Being a social media kind of site with more people like you around, content has a chance to get click-throughs.

3. Linkedin Re-Publication

Re-publishing content on LinkedIn can get you more likes, shares, comments and. Clicks. One needs to share content rather than sharing links.

4. Medium Re-Publication

Re-publishing on Medium is quite similar to that of LinkedIn except that, Medium has a publication feed.

5. Answering Quora Questions

Quora is another such channel that has a list of potential marketers looking and sharing information.

6. Inbound.org Submission

This is a community upvote site for the promotion of any sort of marketing content.

7. Leaving Blog Comments

Blog commenting can help improve networking, generate backlinks, improve referral traffic while also increasing the lead acquisition.

8. Leaving Youtube Comments

Leaving a YouTube comment is quite a good way of referral process. However, smaller active YouTubers reengage with commenters.

9. Facebook “Boost Post”

Facebook ads can help get a significant amount of exposure for a post. Spending some amount does seem to be a good investment in Facebook.

10. Google+ Group Shares

These are the same as LinkedIn, except that the results are better here. 

11. StumbleUpon Submission

StumbleUpon, similar to other groups, uses the concept of “click and forget” that can potentially result in a few clicks. In return for the clicks, you might be able to get some leads generated.

12. Facebook Group Shares

This is the most interactive of all. If you can engage with a community and share, you can get a lot from here.

13. Start a Fire Curation

Start a Fire is one of several apps that allow you to overlay a prompt to your own content on an article you share. This will allow sharing more content curation strategies.

14. Taboola Paid Promotion

The paid promotion has consistency. This can help you generate traffic at a constant price. If you can spend some money, it can really benefit you.

15. Outbrain Paid Promotion

Outbrain is completely similar to taboola. 

16. Hacker News Submission

If you have the perfect content, this website can be very effective. However, identification of the right content is a challenge here.

17. BlogEngage Retweets

Their paid membership, though not very beneficial, can help in generating some clicks.

18. GrowthHackers.com Submission

If you can write on topics that the community likes, which is anything related to driving user behaviour: conversion, copywriting, psychology, etc. This makes it a very good fit for virtually any marketing blog.

19. Quuu Paid Promotion

Quuu Promote has been an automatic part of my content promotion for several months now, although their recent price increase might lead to me being a bit more selective.

20. Reddit Thread Submission

Reddit was the clicks winner by a mile and a half, which sort of surprised me and didn’t surprise me at the same time.

On one hand, I know how much traffic and attention Reddit can quickly drive to a site that captures its attention. On the other hand, 9/10 submissions are typically going to be downvoted to oblivion the moment you submit them.
