10 Proven Tips to Leverage Slideshare by @douglaskarr http://www.marketingtechblog.com
Your title slide is your most important slide. Not only is it key to folks opening it on Slideshare, itās also key in whether or not Slideshare promotes the presentation on their site. A promoted presentation can achieve tens of thousands of clicks! Donāt be afraid to buy a great background image from a stock photo site. Write your title with a beautiful font (see Tip #2 to find out how to get Slideshare to display it correctly). And work on your title ā make it compelling!!!
Slideshare doesnāt do well with custom fonts and layouts. If you build out a beautiful presentation in PowerPoint with unique fonts and layouts, their system probably wonāt convert it well. And avoid animations altogether. Once your PowerPoint presentation looks great, just do a File > Save As and you can export each slide as an image. Create a totally new presentation with the images as each slide. Voila! No import issues!
NOTES ā are the sections under your slide in PowerPoint. If you fill them in, Slideshare will display them on Slideshare ā providing your Slideshare presentation page with additional content that can attract search engine traffic.
Links are converted by the Slideshare system when you embed them in your PowerPoint presentations. Click Tweet on this slide and youāll see what you can do with it!
Slideshare Pro offers you advanced analytics and lead generation! Thatās rightā¦ insert a form directly in your Slideshare presentation to capture leads. Itās only $19 a month!
Slideshare continues to enhance profile pagesā¦ be sure to fill it all in! Follow your colleagues and even your competition. More followers equates to more views, more sharing and ultimately a better chance of driving business. People want to investigate why they should listen to you ā be sure to write a concise bio that dictates your experience and expertise.
Getting wordy can really hurt your presentations. Slideshare is a visual mediumā¦ be sure to leverage it that way. Words are not the enemy, though. If you need to have words, donāt hesitate. This isnāt a keynote or a speechā¦ itās a presentation where people donāt get to see or hear you. Leverage it accordingly.
People find presentations through search engines and through Slideshareās internal searchā¦ so utilize keywords effectively in titles, tags and descriptions.
Add theSlideshare application to your completed LinkedIn profile. Your presentations will add life to your boring LinkedIn page!
