RE: Help Hive - Sprinkle A Little SEO On Your Posts

in OCD • 5 years ago

Did that help or did I make it worse? :D

😂

So i've just created this wonderful post: https://hive.blog/itsatag/@zapncrap/testing-again-title

and on checking the page source, I see no '< h1 >' tag, which I didn't include in the text but gather from what you are saying will come from the Title if not included directly?

Damn, things are tough in the morning - I should probably go back to bed for a few more hours!

Sort:  

Great post, much inform XD

Yep :)

And in the source code:

ahh!

I was looking for h1 with a > directly following. Thanks for that. Soo, where are we - another coffee and I re-read what you put above? :D


So we can either have title and h1 the same by just entering the title, or go for a slight alteration and include a h1.

Go clickbait with the title and more keywordy with the h1?

If you can change the <title> then you could do that :) I don't know if you can do it on here though?

I think I'll quit while I'm behind :)

Although I tried with SEO stuff on this post, I guess it's not really the type for trying to rank high on engines and bring people in.

What I really want to see, as mentioned in another comment, is a hive.blog post ahead of this one for an 'earn cryptocurrency' search on Google.

I think we've tried to move away from the 'get paid to do stuff' theme in recent years but lets face it, there are many things you can do on Hive to earn crypto (outside of begging and selling your vote too :D )

If you just write what people are looking for they'll find it. Which means either do all that horrible market research crap that I hate or just write what you're gonna write XD I put exactly no effort into seo these days (too lazy, got too many other things to do) and people are still managing to find the Blender and (now ancient because I haven't done any recent ones) Drupal notes on my blog.

Most of Hive's current ranking problem would be age as all pre-fork posts are also on steem so if the age thing still matters that would probably get priority if you were searching for something that could be found on either.

So really all we have left to do is write amazing beautifully formatted posts ;D

Indeed. Which is why we need to probably reproduce the guides/etc on the new chain, and be good with formatting. And write awesome content of course :)
