Content Curation is the act of finding, sorting, organizing and presenting content on a certain topic. Now-a-days, Content Curation has become a very powerful marketing strategy for various Internet Marketers, Bloggers, eCommerce sites and more. Content Curation, is a bit different from Content Marketing, where we had to produce or generate article. But here the idea is different, we need to gather articles from a variety of sources and sort out the most relevant and the high-quality ones and publish them in an organized fashion.

But, content curation can be very time-consuming, firstly because of the volume hurdle. To curate quality content, you need to process hundreds of posts and articles every single day and sort out the best from them. What you can do is, follow some good blogs in your niche, subscribe to the RSS feeds of some good-quality sources, follow some Twitter profile and make some Twitter searches. This will eventually provide with with 100 or 200 or even more articles every day. Congrats, you did a good job in discovering some good sources and finding lots and lots of articles that interests you.

But, finding the best and the most relevant and the high-quality articles from these junk of articles is the real work. Not only this, but presenting this huge volume of text and images in an organized fashion is an even more difficult hurdle to overcome.

This is where the MyCurator Content Curation WordPress plugin comes into play. It’s one of the best solution I have seen after trying about 4-5 different content curation softwares.

MyCurator WordPress Plugin

MyCurator is an awesome content curation platform, equipped with a powerful AI based feed reader which learns how to find the best content suitable for you. MyCurator is like a personal assistant for you, which reads every single article just like a human being and sorts out the best ones from them.

It will take some time for the MyCurator Relevace Engine to learn what you actually want. You can teach the engine with various keyword combination filters and simple Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down button. It will process tens or hundreds of articles from various sources you tell it to read from, and will tirelessy work 24/7 to find the most relevant articles for you, so that you can spend your valuable time working on the other aspects of your buisness while MyCurator will take care of then entire aspect of your Curation strategy.

MyCurator also works great with any language that WordPress supports. But the admin pages and the documentation are still in English. It’s just the start of the plugin, and it seems to have a long way to go. It is being developed regularly and every day more and more and more features are being added to it.

Features Of MyCurator Plugin

There are loads of great features that this plugin is equipped with. But I would like to focus on some of the best, most useful and unique features that have interested me the most while I using it.

1) Adding sources and training the AI engine 

Just add the sources from where you want your articles to be collected. It will work at its best in collecting every single article from these sources. If you grab a free API then it will process 50 articles per day, but if you buy the pro or the business plan, then it can process up to 600 articles per day. So you don’t need to worry even a bit. Just add the sources and let it show its magic.

2) Filtering articles to find the most relevant and the best quality articles only

You can use combinations of keywords to include or exclude articles. It can sort the best articles from huge junk of articles, by weeding 90% of the articles. It works just like your personal assistant, reading each and every single article carefully and minutely and classifying them. You can also use the simple Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down button to train it to understand the best articles that interests you the most.

3) Easy Hand-Curation into the WordPress Editor ready for you

Now, after discovering, identifying and sorting out the most relevant articles for your readers, the final job is to organize it into a post with proper attribution. If you go otherwise, then you need to manually copy/paste the articles and images and assemble them yourself, but MyCurator does a great job in putting them into the WordPress editor saving your precious time.

4) Value for money

This plugin is available for both free and premium versions. If you have a small blog then you can go for the free version and you don’t need to pay a single penny for this awesome plugin to work 24/7 for you. But if you want to use it for business purposes or have a large site or many clients, then you can go for the Pro or the Business plan, at a very reasonable price.

Download and Pricing Details

You can download it from two places – either from the official site of Mycurator or from the WordPress Repository.

After using so many curator applications, I consider MyCurator, to be the best and the most reasonable solution.
