Making the strategy to an even higher level would be taking a comment (usually a long one) and turning it into a post rewritten for the searching public. I do this occasionally, although I'm making a conscious effort to do this more often.
We may also have older posts which could benefit from a makeover. No matter the audience for the older posts, they could be rewritten for the searching public.
If we have trouble finding content we can use for generating external traffic via search engines, at least these 2 options can provide us a bridge to accomplish the overall task of bringing more traffic to LeoFinance and to Hive.

So you are talking about de-constructing and re-constructing articles.
Its a time consuming thing to do but can be very rewarding, especially when you are able to take the nuggets of info in the comment section and weaving them into the post.
I've done this before lots of times when I am ghost writing on topics that I don't quite understand.
I take the questions in the comments and I answer them in the next articles.
I am thinking that I have enough of my own old posts to do that for a bit.
I have a whole plan i'm looking forward to implementing and it includes my own site, setting up my mailing list (finally) and even using some listnerds action to get some traction to it.

Essentially. Taking older content and updating it to reflect newer knowledge learned since the original or previous version of a post. Maybe including an image you like better than what you used earlier. More than copying and pasting, though (that's just lazy). It's not a total rewrite, but it's enough to qualify as new content.
In recent posts where I took a comment and expanded it for a wider audience, I tied it to an comment I was trying to make to someone. Should I go back to these posts, I could rewrite them in a way so that they read as pure posts. By that time, there is distance between me and the time I made the original comments. This I haven't done, but the raw material is there for when the time comes.
