To a search engine spider (even a super advanced one) content formatted as a blog post and similar content repurposed as slides will look completely different.</p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/blogging">blogging</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/slideshare">slideshare</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/speaking">speaking</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/quora">quora</a></p>

<p><em>My answer to <a href="https://www.quora.com/How-can-you-use-SlideShare-effectively-to-grow-your-professional-reputation-in-a-specific-niche/answer/Simon-Willison">How can you use SlideShare effectively to grow your professional reputation in a specific niche?</a> on Quora</em></p> <p>"How to integrate SlideShare activities with other social networks"</p> <p>If you want to increase the visibility of your presentations, one thing you could do is ensure you have an up-to-date speaker profile on our service, Lanyrd. You can list the events you've spoken at and the talks you've given, then attach your SlideShare presentations.</p> <p>If you do this, your talks will show up in a bunch of places - they'll be linked to from your Lanyrd profile, they'll be featured on the event page and they'll also show up on any topic pages relevant to the talk.</p> <p>Here's an example: I gave a talk about Comet (a fore-runner to WebSockets) at an event back in 2008. Here's the session page on Lanyrd, with the embedded SlideShare presentation:</p> <span><a href="http://lanyrd.com/2008/skillswap-goes-javascript/skq/">http://lanyrd.com/2008/skillswap...</a></span> <p>The presentation also shows up as a thumbnail on our page about that event:</p> <span><a href="http://lanyrd.com/2008/skillswap-goes-javascript/">http://lanyrd.com/2008/skillswap...</a></span> <p>And since it was about "Comet", it shows up in the slider widget at the top of our page about Comet as well:</p> <span><a href="http://lanyrd.com/topics/comet/">http://lanyrd.com/topics/comet/</a></span> <p>Finally, it's included in my overall speaker profile, along with all of my other talks:</p> <span><a href="http://lanyrd.com/profile/simonw/">http://lanyrd.com/profile/simonw/</a></span> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/networking">networking</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/slideshare">slideshare</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/social-networks">social-networks</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/quora">quora</a></p>
