You then present these within the body of your blog post. So for example, let’s use this topic! We want to demonstrate how to curate an interesting read for your audience by sharing the talents of others, but at the same time providing something informative that can demonstrate your knowledge.
Here’s an article (and our first example) with ideas for creating quick curated content:-
