Want to make your blog posts more interesting and vibrant? Then you should try Zemanta, a free content suggestion tool for bloggers. Basically, it will save your time by suggesting relevant content like images, links and articles from the web, while you are writing a blog post. Zemanta supports Blogger, WordPress, TypePad, LiveJournal and MovableType and works on both Firefox and Internet Explorer. You can start using Zemanta by installing the required browser extension. But, for hosted WordPress or MovableType powered blogs, they also have plugins. Well, both browser extension and the plugin will give you the same Zemanta experience. So, no need to use both of them!

Zemanta suggests related articles and images that are either clearly licensed as Creative Commons, or approved by stock providers. It suggests contents from over 300 top media sources and numerous user blogs. And images are pulled from Wikimedia Commons, Flickr and other stock photo providers, through contextual comparison. Based on the text of your, it automatically displays some tags that you can apply to your blog posts. Zemanta also suggests relevant links from Wikipedia. Well, at present, it supports only English language.

I have tested Zemanta on one of my blogs and it is really interesting. It specially helps me to find relevant Wikipedia links to insert in my blog posts. You can test the demo of Zemanta before installing the extension or plugin. You can find popular articles from the popular section on their website and re-blog any article that has ‘reblog’ button posted underneath. Try Zemanta today and enjoy blogging!
