Businesses recognize that images, videos, and ads shared or produced by consumers <a href=\"https:\/\/hopla.online\/blog\/user-generated-content-moderation-brand-trust\/\">add value to a brand\u2019s credibility online<\/a>. Despite the risks attached to user-generated content, more and more businesses incorporate it in their online strategy. It is what makes content moderation complex and crucial in protecting both parties. As a result, business owners are hiring web content moderators to manage user-generated content.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"How to Manage a Web Content Moderator\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0HyjQK9LzcA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>An online moderator job typically requires reviewing and monitoring end-users’ submitted content. Their goal is to ensure that their network is free from offensive or unrelated content. Oftentimes, a web content moderator faces sensitive material that can take a toll on their emotional and mental well-being. Because of that, businesses should work to not only protect their brand but their content moderators as well. Businesses can start taking care of a web content moderator through these tips:<\/p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20126 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hopla.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/content-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\"><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Incorporating Moderation Algorithms<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Algorithms and artificial intelligence can automatically analyze and promptly approve massive amounts of content. The problem with AI-powered moderation is letting machines filter content according to programmed rules without context. For example, the infamous Elsagate, where videos posted on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/\">Youtube<\/a> were categorized as child-friendly but contained inappropriate content for children. This only shows that an algorithm is not entirely foolproof amidst tech advancement.<\/p>\n<p>However, using algorithms as a pre-approval method can help with managing a web content moderator\u2019s job. You can design an algorithm that identifies what can be automatically approved and which ones require the moderator\u2019s attention. In this way, humans and machines are working together to streamline content as well as protect a moderator\u2019s well-being.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Rotating Content Moderation Tasks <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Web content moderators can be faced with the same danger level of daily content. While they\u2019re dealing with varied content, routinely scanning UGC can be tiresome and tedious. As a result, a fatigued online moderator can miss something important. To prevent this, rotating the tasks assigned to your moderation team can help refresh their minds. For example, you can switch tasks every two hours to ensure a deep focus.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Developing Wellness Programs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Your business can enjoy the benefits of hiring a content moderator especially if they are emotionally and mentally healthy. Businesses should prioritize the health and wellness of their online moderators by developing a sustainable wellness program. For example, they can enforce pre-evaluation, orientation, and training to prepare a web content moderator for the job. Additionally, you can create a work environment for recognizing online content moderators’ performance. Recognition does not only make an employee feel good about their work, but it also motivates and increases their productivity.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Outsourcing Managed Content Moderators<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Web content moderation is one of the most difficult jobs out there today. The sheer volume of content to review can be overwhelming. Add to that the risks they face to provide a safe online environment for the business and its network. Managing a content moderator is a must for this reason, but it can be a daunting concern for a business.<\/p>\n<p>To get away with these concerns, you can consider <a href=\"https:\/\/hopla.online\/hiring\/remote-project-manager-2\/\">outsourcing project management<\/a> services through HOPLA.
