One way to boost your SEO is to make it easier for search engines to crawl your website. Back in 2009, Google introduced “Rich Snippets”, in order to make it easier for search engines to organize and classify information.  Here is a direct quote from the “Markup your content Items” page on Google’s website

Content Curation simply defined is when you organize highly relevant content from the Internet along with your own content. Content Curation is now outpacing Content Creation.  In this excellent article “Why Sharing Other People’s Content is Essential to your Own Success“, Aaron Orendorff says:

This is the story and inspiration behind our news curation tool. We started working on ways to curate and share information back in 2001. Before browsers had tabs, we released a multi-tab browser called “optimal Desktop” that allowed users to curate and manage access to hundreds of web destinations with ease. The curated information was on the users computer, so the thought from the beginning was, how do you share this information with others?

Not all curation tools are the same. Some are built to tell a story, and some are built to record history. Our KBucket solution is built to record history. In this post, I’d like to explore the difference between these two forms of communication.

Two studies, one by “The online Journalism Review” and the other by “Pew Research” investigate how users interact with news online. We want to investigate how these findings make the case for news curation, and how news curators can benefit from these findings.
