UGC: what user generated content is and what it is for
Apparently they are three simple letters, but behind them there is a whole world that tells the evolution of the Web and also some of its distortions: today we dedicate our attention to UGCs, the acronym that distinguishes User Generated Content and therefore all the content generated by users, that freely interact with the contents of a site. Ugcs can become a valuable resource for a site, because they can create engagement and trust in readers, but if managed badly they can turn out to be a burden, if not even a problem – and just see the latest Google data on UGC spam to understand it: let’s try to see together everything about the theme and some tips to exploit these contents for the benefit of business and brand.
What are UGCs, User Generated Content
UGC are essentially any form of content spontaneously created by users and posted on a site, social media or other channels.
The acronym UGC takes the initials of User Generated Content: by definition, Ugcs include any form of content (text, post, images, videos, reviews) created spontaneously by individual people (and not by brand, neither directly nor against payment) and published on a social network or on normal online pages.
