A Slideshare Presentation

2. ABOUT slideshare…
Slideshare is a free media website which enables
you to upload your professional videos and
slideshow presentations.
UnlikeYouTube, the emphasis is more on
presentations though professional video is
permitted and shared.

3. More on slideshare:
SlideShare is a slide hosting service, acquired by LinkedIn in 2012. It
allows users to upload files (PowerPoint, PDF, Keynote, or OpenDocument
presentations) either privately or publicly. The slide decks can then be viewed
on the site itself or can be embedded on other sites. Launched on October 4,
2006, the website is considered to be similar to YouTube, but for
slideshows. Although the site was originally intended for businesses to share
slides amongst employees more easily, it has expanded and now hosts a
large number of slides that are uploaded for anybody to view. Although the
website is primarily a slide hosting service, it also supports documents, PDFs,
videos and webinars. SlideShare also provides the users the ability to rate,
comment on, and share the uploaded content.

4. BENEFITS
Using SlideShare means you won’t have to worry about hosting content on your own site since
you can just embed content from SlideShare. A far more practical and less time-consuming
process.
Using it means you will be able to tap into the large number of SlideShare visitors and raise
your own profile.
It is low cost since there is both a free account option and the option to go pro.
It is easy to use since most people are already familiar with PowerPoint and so are able to
generate content relatively quickly.
Using it will allow you to grow your brand and is perhaps the platform which can best
accommodate more detailed and in-depth content – i.e., content that may not be appropriate for
sharing on other social channels.
