Furthermore, it can help you identify and gauge prospective influencers by looking at each content\u2019s engagement metrics.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To use BuzzSumo, simply type in a keyword, domain name, or any phrase that describes your niche or a particular topic you\u2019d like to discuss. You can refine your search by modifying the search filters found in the left panel, such as country, content type, language, and publish date. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By conducting content research, you can also determine the type of content that resonates with your target audience.
