1) Slideshare presentations are extremely shareable — you can see that you can share this slide show via Twitter, Facebook, Buzz, Blogger, WordPress or email.
2) Slideshare presentations are embeddable — you should upload presentations to slideshare and then embed them on your own blog — other people might embed them on their own websites — further spreading your content.
3 & 4 ) Slideshare presentations rank fairly well and they have a YouTube like way of displaying similar presentations — this gets you more views.
5) Slideshare has the ability to have clickable links — this is great because you can drive people back to your own website via your slideshow.
How To Use Slideshare For SEO
Here are a few tips —
1. Name your presentation with SEO keywords — try to find a balance between an interesting title and a keyword rich title.
2. Tag the presentation properly — your tags should be keywords that are contained with the presentation. I use the following tags quite often:
- marketing
- business
- russ henneberry
- blogging
- etc, etc
3. Write a description that includes your website address and the keywords you are targeting.
4. Include a link to your website in the footer of every slide of the presentation.
