BuzzSumo

How do you know what your best and most popular content is? Many bloggers and designers pay big bucks for tools to tell them the answer to this question. Not everyone has the budget for expensive tools to help them understand things like this. Fortunately, tools like BuzzSumo are available that will give you that information for free. BuzzSumo is a great tool for pinpointing your top 5 posts. You’ll see what has generated the most buzz. Let’s take a look at BuzzSumo and why you should be using it.

All you have to do is enter the main URL of your website. BuzzSumo will tell you what your top 5 posts are. On top of that, you’ll discover how many social media shares each post has received. It even breaks it down to how many shares are received for each major social site, like Facebook and Twitter. This can give you valuable insight as to where your posts are shared the most. You’ll see which content is spread the most, as well as which social media site gets your content the most shares. This will tell you whether you should focus more on Facebook, where you may get more shares over Twitter, where you’re hardly getting any.
