2 Getting “Slideshare Ready”
Preparing your slides for Slideshare
Restructure contents – more narrative, less bullet points
It’s OK to remove bullet points and replace them with sequential slides
• Point A• Point B• Point C

Warning:This is not an excuse to bloat your slide count!
Just that simple sequential narration helps info stick better than boring bullet points.
Remove or simplify transitions/animation
Either remove animations completely or set them to Appear / Disappear. Slideshare will be able to handle the rest.
Clean up / update slide notes
Note: If presentation notes is blank, Slideshare will grab text from the slide contents. Best to tidy up prior to uploading
Powerpoint / KeynoteNotes

… will appear here
Zip if you are uploading an Apple Keynote presentation
Slideshare currently support Apple keynotes only if they are uploaded as a *.zip file
Obtain royalty rights for images
It can be embarrassing to put up a slide on the public domain with a watermarked image. Make sure you obtain the rights to display them.
