Content curation is an art form that requires skill and finesse. It involves finding, organizing, and sharing content from a variety of sources in order to create something new and interesting for your audience. Content curation can be used to build relationships with customers or followers by providing them with relevant information they may not have found on their own. When it comes to content curation, the goal is twofold: firstly, you want to share great content that will engage your readers; secondly, you want the shared material itself(and therefore also yourself) promoted through social media channels or other means of communication such as email newsletters.
