In this post, we’re delivering a compelling list of applications every content marketer will want to add to their tech stack.

Should You Care About Content Amplification?
It seems like an easy answer ( yes!). Yet, many content teams don’t make it part of their content strategy. When you prioritize it, it can help you rise above the noise, as content creators publish over three million blogs every day.
There is a lot of competition for eyes and interest, even if you’re in a niche industry. You can have direct and indirect competition. For example, for MIG, we compete against other content marketing services and organizations like the Content Marketing Institute (CMI).
While you are likely posting on your social media profiles, using email marketing, and using other common distribution models, it’s hard to amplify unless you have a plan and tools to elevate your efforts beyond general posting.
What Are the Different Ways to Amplify Content?
Amplification can leverage many channels. You can post on your social media profiles organically as the first means of distribution. Email marketing is another option. You can also post on open third-party sites such as Quora or Medium.
Using paid channels is also an option. Paid channels include search and social media ads. Another paid option is a newswire for press releases.
No matter how you amplify, you’ll need effective tools.
