Friday Favourites ~ 10 ways to use #Flipboard to Promote your Blog.


I have decided to share the features a little differently from now on. I will be now publishing YOUR posts in a weekly Flipboard magazine. If you aren't familiar with Flipboard, it is a mobile app that allows you to collect and share articles, blogs posts, news items etc into an online 'magazine'. Later in the post I'll be sharing the 10 ways to use #Flipboard to Promote your Blog.



Flipboard allows you to discover new content to share on various social media channels. Flipboard has quickly become one of the top choices for feed reading on devices such as smartphones, tablets and desktops.





Flipboard supports social media channels like Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, Instagram, Tumblr, amongst others! You just have to link your networks to your Flipboard account and then information will be streamed for you.


Here are 10 ways to use #Flipboard to Promote your Blog.

  2. Flipboard helps you create a 'magazine' for content curation.

You will need to download Flipboard onto your iPad or sign into flipboard.com then you van easily browse stories, catch up on anything you're interested in and collect and share articles with friends.

There are heaps of articles on the web on how and why to use Flipboard but these two posts helped me enormously. The first one is from The Edu-Blogger (I first started using Flipboard in my role as a teacher) and it explains how to set up an account, curate content and share your content with others. Read "The flip-a-holic’s ultimate guide to subscribing, curating and sharing using Flipboard" here.
