Reuse your posts on social media to be compensated for them?

2 replies
I wrote a lot of posts on social media.

Sometimes personal stuff, sometimes in depth.

I preferred this because I wanted interaction, but the posts are already good the way they are without reactions.

Now I know which posts got traction and which didn't based on statistics.

How can I reuse them to make money with them?

Challenges:
  1. When blogging, you normally focus on one topic and stick to it. You name your blogurl accordingly. My topics are all over the place.
  2. I am german so part of the eu and there you have to put your real address there if you want to make money with your website. Many, well performing posts are containing sensitive information, I would completely give up my anonymity.
  3. Does that work seo-wise, given that google will detect duplicates?

    It depends on what you want to do with your writing.

    The personal posts aren't going to be easy to sell to third parties. The others could be collated into topics and resold.

    But good content is always in demand. If you wanted to go that route, you could feature all your writing on one site and use them as examples of your content creation experience in order to hire yourself out as a freelancer.

    One significant advantage you'd have over other new freelancers is that you could demonstrate with statistics how much engagement your past work has generated.

    What's your way of monetization? Do you have a CTA to an offer or service in those posts? Are you an affiliate marketer? What's your strategy? Would be important to know a bit more about the context

    Regarding your challenges:

    1. Social media is a little bit more flexible with that (or at least some of them, like Twitter) but yeah 2-4 related topics are advisable, you can off-topic though from time to time, what topics do you touch normally?
    2. Can you put a company address (in case is convenient for you)
    3. Can you rephrase the content? I'm not a SEO expert, so hopefully someone can give you a better advice on this one
