How It Works

OneSpot’s tools offer a unique approach to discovering the best content for a targeted online audience. OneSpot uses story linking patterns and a proprietary ratings system.

  1. Using a few trusted sites that reflect the interests of your audience, OneSpot automatically identifies thousands of related sources, continuously finding the best articles, stories, and posts from over 1 million sites around the Web.
  2. In the Editor Dashboard, top content results are displayed and individual stories can be approved, featured, or blocked.
  3. Publishing frequency, order preference, and presentation can be configured to your site’s needs, with options including a widget, a webpage, an RSS/Atom feed, or a newsletter.
  1. Articles are displayed with the headline, a short excerpt, and a link out to the original story, giving full credit and a link to the original author and source. In the Editor Dashboard, you can tailor the title and add your own commentary to blend in with your site and spark discussion.
  2. Every published story receives its own discussion page, a permalink dense with relevant keywords and phrases ideal for optimizing search engine results.
  3. Discussion pages give more context for a story, offer related stories, and give your readers the opportunity to vote or comment on a story.

“Each published story received its own detail page which encourages further reader participation via discussion and voting features.”

OneSpot typically takes less than 1 IT hour to deploy, but will save your editors endless hours in finding quality content. There are no hardware or software requirements and no installations to worry about, because as an Application Service Provider (ASP), OneSpot hosts the content, integrating seamlessly — visually and technically.

Most content aggregation tools use keyword searches and contextual analysis which can lead to outdated stories, poor quality material, or even completely unrelated stories. You can avoid this challenge by letting the best sources for your topic guide the choices you make for your website, blog, or newsletter programs.
