For content marketers, content curation is integral to online strategy. Effective curation helps position you as a thought leader in your space, and is an economical way to maintain a consistent publishing schedule of quality content. But manually trying to find the most relevant content in a given industry and then publishing it across multiple channels can be time-consuming. To curate effectively thus requires automation. This ultimate list of content curation software includes both business-grade and personal curation tools for hobbyist or organizational purposes.

Curata defines content curation as when an individual (or team) consistently finds, organizes, annotates, and shares the most relevant and highest quality digital content on a specific topic for their target market. Curation is a great way to support a created content strategy, publish content consistently, and keep track of your favorite information sources. Enlightened content marketers use a content mix that is only 65% created, with the remainder being 25% curated and 10% syndicated.

The Purpose of This List

This map was constructed to help you or your organization navigate the growing world of curation and find a tool that best fits your content needs. If you’re all caught up on The Ultimate Content Marketing Tools List, then you already know the content marketing tools universe is vast—and expanding.

Marketing technology is constantly providing marketers with simpler solutions for publishing higher quality, more relevant content. Whether you’re one of the 75 percent of marketers increasing content investment this year, or you’re just looking for a tool to help keep track of news and social media, this list cuts through the curation clutter to make sense of what differentiates each application, service, and platform.

Disclaimer

It is increasingly difficult to keep up with the rapidly expanding universe of content marketing. Not to mention each sector it encompasses, such as content curation. For this reason, this list is not comprehensive. There are certainly other tools out there as effective as the ones listed below, which may serve different functions.

We welcome your suggestions in the comments section to help make this list more complete.
