Hello Scott,
I hope I can provide you with some helpful insights. If I understand your question correctly I believe you're looking for content besides owned media to share on social.
I would first start by creating an objective for this effort. Generally your objective should be to help engage and provide useful content to your ideal clients, target accounts, or your audience.
Example: If you're targeting an audience that consists of restaurant owners then you should be sharing links or content related to both their personal and business challenges or interest. Some good content to share might look like this:
- Food ordering system, or a blog post about the best payment systems for restaurants.
- An article or blog about managing stress or long work hours
- Tips on providing customer service
- A guide on retaining good employees
- Best restaurant equipment, etc
Though going back to your question, some good places to look for content are
- http://www.businessinsider.com/
- https://techcrunch.com/
- https://hbr.org/
- Google News
- https://www.hubspot.com/
- https://www.reuters.com/news/archive/businessNews
- http://www.bbc.com/news/business
- https://www.wsj.com/news/business
- http://time.com/

- http://mashable.com/
- https://www.wired.com/
- http://www.socialmediatoday.com/

I hope this was helpful, if you need more clarification or want a specific example on what kind of content you should be sharing, include your ideal client, or target audience.
Cheers,
Moe

As a webdesigner, I tend to place a link to my website in the footer of sites I build.

What can i do to regain top 3 for local map listings if I already created a bunch of citation link to my site?
I got hit by a penguin refresh on Oct 5th and lost over 10 #1 rankings. I'm currently #4 on the places listing for my main keyword and really trying to regain top 3 position.

Hi guys, I sell cartridges for printers and i'm struggerling to rank a lot of printers. I've been told it's all about domain authority and it'll pass down to these pages, however I can't see it happening, nor can I wait for it to happen. Should I rethink my categorys? I've got subcategorys in subcategorys in subcategorys - probably not advised because of link juice right? e.g Epson Stylus SX130 Ink would be located below.

How to get Google to link external review sites in Google Places
Hi, I have several company profiles in Google Places and Google Sites, I also have the same profiles for those companies in review sites like Yelp! and so on. I have seen that other sites have links on the bottom where Google points to those external review sites, but that doesn't happen for me yet, is there a way to tell Google that I have profiles on other review sites so they can link them or is it Google whenever they find them that will link them? Here's an example: http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=14126341780178539960&hl=en At the bottom you'll see that it says: Reviews from around the web Now this is one of mine: http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=12168877126282825032&hl=en Now how do I get that line at the bottom provided that I know there are reviews out there in other sites? Is there something I can do? Or is it all about Google doing it whenever they see fit? Thank you!

Link local online newspaper ad to newspaper's spash page or my site?
We just started advertising on the web version of our local newspaper. They suggest our ads go to a "splash page" they created for us on their site. The page haslinks , images and text taken from each of our main categories,. Plus links and feeds from our twitter and facebook pages. And a google map. This page shows a page authority 1 with 0 links. Is there any reason to link our ad to a page like this rather than going direct to our website page? Thank you Handcrafter

Facebook, Google Plus - What to share/like?
Hi everybody! We are planning to offer an incentive to all our customers who interact with us on social media websites. What's the most important thing to ask from a customer? Facebook to like our Facebook business page or to like our own website through Facebook? to just follow us on Facebook or to actually comment / interact on our wall? Google + to +1, share, add to circle our Google+ business webpage or to +1 or share our own website? So basically what do we need to promote most? Our Facebook / Google+ business pages or our own website through social media marketing? While we understand it's important to actually interact with the customers and offer value on social media websites, we are looking to boost our SEO efforts. Thank you!
