Many people, including some small and medium-sized Internet companies, think that the job of online editors is very simple. It is nothing more than copying and pasting. The more advanced ones are the hard work of adding pictures and pseudo-originals. In fact, this misunderstanding is very harmful to online editors. It is easy for this profession to be ignored and even disappear. In fact, a qualified online editor needs to have the ability to integrate content from the Internet. If you want to improve it, you need to extract content from the vast ocean of information and then refine and process it.
I have worked as an editor for content websites, and now I am mainly engaged in SEO editing. There are differences between them, but the most important thing is to find content sources. But if you have enough content sources, you can easily cope with the daily fixed work. I will share my search for content sources below. Method:
First of all, of course, what comes to mind is the search engine. It is recommended to use Google search. Baidu’s content is very repetitive, and many of the top rankings are advertising content. If you are an information editor, you can use news search. If you want to be lazy, you can use To subscribe to news, Soso's news subscription is a good choice. This method is more suitable for information websites.
Second, large portals can be used as a supplement to search engines, but when the website needs content and does not pay much attention to effectiveness, you can find a large amount of content with similar keywords in large portals. At the same time, large portals generally have many columns. It is recommended to check the map of the website first. If there is a corresponding column, go directly to it to save search time. If there is not, it is recommended to use the on-site search. As a news editor, I believe there is already a lot of content.
Third, forums and blogs. This is mainly aimed at making product information for corporate websites. General online promoters will use forums and blogs as information windows. There is a lot of industry information and product information introduction. Looking for some blogs in the same industry will yield good results, but The selection of forums and blogs will take more time.
Fourth, the same type of website. It is best to be a competitor or a relatively outstanding website in the same industry. This needs no further explanation.
Fifth, newspapers and magazines. If you are an editor of a corporate website, you should read more industry publications. These are good sources of content and a shortcut for you to understand the industry.
The above are some of the methods I use to find content sources. Generally, I can get enough content through the above methods. With this content, whether it is pseudo-original or some original articles, I do not recommend copying and pasting them directly. , because there is already too much duplicate content on the Internet. As a professional website editor, you cannot publish for the sake of publishing. At least you must have good inclusion and ranking!
