Hive & LeoFinance Sits On TOP Of Google! [1st Page Search Results]

This Means Traffic

I recently shared a mini-series with you called "How To Write SEO Friendly POSTS In 2020" in an attempt to shed some light upon SEO, blog post optimization and also how easy it is to optimize your blog posts that will ultimately become great sources of traffic. I did this as I want us to increase exposure, generate more Ad Revenue for LeoFinance and to spread the word to the outside. I want people to know about Hive and I want people to join the communities, but instead of going the same old route like everyone else and make random tweets with a bunch of hashtags, I wanted to do something different.

  • I wanted to focus more on google and the search results.

In case you missed the mini-series, you can read it here:


Top 1, 2 & 3 On Google

I wrote a post called: How To Earn Crypto From Blogging In 2021 about 4+ days ago, as part of an experiment of sorts and I also included this:

The information within this article is not so much for existing LEO users but will be used to draw attention to LeoFinance from outside of the Hive Blockchain. This article will be used in upcoming advertising campaigns and everyone is free to share this anywhere they see fit. This is also done as a test to analyze and track the statistics of traffic and to see details of the impact from post optimization and how that eventually will affect the rankings. I might edit this specific article or publish new versions of it in the future.

Now, it's basically impossible to rank your keywords in as little as 4 days, as Google contains millions of pages and sites for literally everything you can imagine, they need some time to figure out the quality of the content and how well it does against related content in that niche, or how well it does against the competitors. That's how ranking works. You compete for the best spots on google. You want to be placed in the top of google searches, which is why you often use good keywords.


Earn Crypto From Blogging 2021

As you can see, the first three search results are from Reddit, Hive and Twitter. The search result from Hive takes us straight to the article on Hive.blog and that means both exposure for Hive and LeoFinance as I talk about Leo and use screenshots from LeoFinance in the article. I also included direct links to LeoFinance within the article, so it's given that someone will click on that.

However, the other two results are from Reddit and Twitter and that is all thanks to @trumpman. So, just by posting something on reddit and making a tweet on twitter, this can go viral. In this case, we might not have gone viral on Twitter, but we can clearly see how much of an impact it had for us in terms of rankings on Google.

You can see for yourself here:


That's three top spots in 4+ days for the specific search phrase "earn crypto from blogging 2021". While you might think that people won't include the word "blogging" in their searches, I can tell you that they most certainly will.. But I will do even better. I will show you something different:

How To Earn Crypto In 2021:
Does that feel like a better search phrase? Do you think people are likely to use that specific search phrase on Google during the end of this- and during the whole 12 months of next year?

  • I bet they will.

How awesome is it to see that reddit post from @trumpman again?


Something funny I realized:

rank.png

How To Write SEO Friendly Blog Posts 2020, that's the image from one of my posts in the mini-series. So while I am sharing content about how you can optimize your posts to increase rankings and traffic, the posts themselves are ranking on Google. Now, this is ranking for images on Google, and it sits at position #30. Another post from that mini-series sits at position #62.

Do you realize the importance of optimization of your blog posts and can you see the the incredible potential yet? This will lead to more traffic and rapid growth in the long haul.

Are you longing for success? - Do your part.

Feel free to share How To Earn Crypto From Blogging In 2021 wherever you see fit, like and retweet @trumpman's tweet for maximum exposure and to drive traffic to Hive & LEO.

It is good. @trumpman does a terrific job getting stuff to go viral on Twitter.

There are lots of approaches being worked at one time.

I am confident it all will add up to pushing Leofinance into the forefront of the internet. Give us another year, we will be in outstanding shape.

Yeah, he does a great job pushing content on both reddit and twitter, which all leads to more traffic and higher rankings. Social signals like retweets & likes, all of those things add up and improves ranking which ultimately gives us more traffic and more users as well. With LeoFinance and Hive being so new, it's actually really cool to have these great results. And it will get even better with time!

I agree, things do add up. It is true that we need to remember all of this is basically new.

Hive only is about 8 months old. Leofinance, under that name, is about the same.

We need to spend time trying to add as much as we can all over the place.

Indeed! This is rather cool actually:

According to multiple sources, the average time for websites to rank on Google through optimization (SEO) techniques is about three to six months.

So, we have basically just started to rank, which is very important to remember in terms of organic traffic. Give it another year and the traffic will boom.

Plus we are likely to see an aid in that area if what is being discussed does come into being. We will hear something in the next couple weeks, I guess, if it is going to come to fruition.

Things could start changing very quickly around here.

I also want to learn how to do this! I've ranked for some searches but I don't remember exactly. I tried searching your keywords and I got the same result, but if I remove the "2021" the results change a lot. Let's keep making progress!

but if I remove the "2021" the results change a lot.

Exactly, and this is something I took into consideration when I made the post. Instead of using '2020' in the title, I decided to go with '2021' as it gives me time to rank for these specific keywords even better before going into next year. In 2021, people are more likely to use 2021 when they search for things rather than 2020, as everyone wants information that is up to date, and other content that is ranking high right now, they will need to update- or republish content next year, so I will have a headstart in terms of rankings.

That is a great idea. I've seen that some people do that on YouTube videos, they even update the year for old videos.

Yup, they reuse the content and that is because they want to keep the current rankings. SEO usually involves a ton of work, especially for certain keywords, so if you have managed to rank well for some of them, you are not likely to make new content for those keywords. You continue to update it instead.

Some years ago I was learning about SEO, I wanted to make a marketing business, I was not very succesful but I built one website for a friend who is an architect on my City. I haven't made any changes to the website for a couple of years but if you search "arquitecto en Cuautla Morelos" you should find the website on the first page of Google. The site is called habitdesignconstruccion.com

SEO and marketing are great tools, I wish someday I can learn more about them.

That's cool and yeah, optimization and social signals are essential to high rankings, so it's important to share content on social media. An often overlooked thing to do, but it has an impact.

And since Google likes to change their algorithm from year to year, this series will be an evergreen with freshly tweaked updates or repurposing, sharing that sweet link juice far into the future.

Even if your post doesn't takeoff immediately, you could see traffic over time. On Twitter, I frequently see references to tweets I posted months ago. They're popping up on Google because I use SEO in my tweets as well.

I've been trying to get the word out over on Hive concerning the powerful combination of "writing for Google" SEO and social media. Let's hope it catches on over here! :)

That was the entire idea behind my mini-series. To spread knowledge and help people to understand how big impact one could have with just some minor optimization on posts, all to generate organic traffic over time.

Seo is free marketing. Use keyword that has few competitors may help to boost leofinance

That is true, it is free but it is often very time consuming. Especially for people who aren't familiar with seo. That is also why I shared my mini-series, in an attempt to spread knowledge so more people could optimize their posts a bit. Each little bit of optimization helps in the long haul.

you got me thinking about some of my posts, i knew that one has good ranks on images (2 photos in first 30 when you google corfu cats), but i was surprised to find out that it is 3rd result in the "normal" search.

Maybe i should do some edits on it, to add some more blockchain info.

WOW awesome! I was excited when I saw your post drop, which led me to try something that I haven't done in a while.

I actually went over to our LeoFinance.Official Facebook page and boosted your post. It seems that the response has been overwhelmingly positive over there with a small budget and already 317+ Link Clicks and climbing.

This is amazing to see and a small taste of the longer term marketing that I want to continually run. I'm excited that it's ranking well on Google and other places. With how well crafted and relevant your post is, I had a gut feeling this was the one to add some promotional $$ behind.

I'm going to add to the ad budget on that blog post. Let's see what happens :)

Pumping posts via Facebook is a good strategy, but when done differently.

One of the things Google is known to monitor and act almost instantaneously on is “live traffic”.

Obviously, as operator of Google Analytics — having invested millions and millions in cleansing of data so barely any faked traffic is counted — Google is in a prime position to monitor live traffic and use as a metric for sending traffic. To Google live traffic (measured via GA and its social platforms monitoring) is considered a measure of credibility for that site.

Over the years many people have noticed that when running a FB ad for some days, in those days Google would send more traffic to their site over those few days, and the next day.

So if there’s an ad budget, create a list of “evergreen” content and occasionally throw few bucks at those posts. It will also longterm contribute to their ranking in the SERPS improving.

People will certainly be aware of the existence of Hive and LeoFinance due to social media and by word of mouth advertising, but SEO will definitely help to drive organic traffic. These are the results after only 4-5 days. With one post. Imagine the impact in 6 months or 1 year from now, when we have hundreds of optimized posts that is ranking well on search engines. We will be everywhere.

There's a wide variety of things you can do to increase your page rank or serp, but at the end of the day, it doesn't matter much how much money you spend on advertising if you don't optimize your content. Optimization is vital for organic traffic and a better position on the search engines.

Remember that’s for 30 days. So less than 100/day from Google.

As for the second column, that’s pageviews not visitors. And a lot of those are from ourselves checking out the most recent content.

Very nice. I'm certainly going to read your SEO Friendly mini-serie posts.

A thing to keep in mind is that Google shows results based on the profile they have of you.
Even when you're not logged in they have a profile based on IP and cookies.
When you're searching your own content it's likely that Google knows what you want to see...

I always give the example of searching for "Nails".
Men will probably get results of hardware stores where women will get manicure salons.

It's not that black and white, but it is something you have to keep in mind.
You can try searching in incognito mode with a VPN enabled or use the Tor browser (has an integrated VPN).

I know and that is exactly what I thought happened.. However, I have used different browsers (not with VPN though), incognito and different IPs as well, as I've used my phone and one of my friends (not interested in crypto) have looked at it too. Others within this post has used the search phrase and showed their results, and it's still the same.

That being said, you are totally on point with what you have said, so I guess it should be different search results, but it doesn't look like it from where I'm standing right now at least. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

With a little dedication and effort and reading more about your post, managing SEO, many of us can take the Leo platform to the top places in Google.

SEO is essential in terms of organic traffic, but not many users on Hive/LeoFinance or the other communities understand that, or even think about it. I guess that is due to the simple fact that the traffic is already in place here. We post things and others reward it..

That’s the recency bonus. That is not their final ranking, not with DA26 and those keywords. After 6 weeks final ranking is found, which can then be improved via ongoing SEO.

Additionally, Google is a personal search engine and will tailor your search results to your searches and clicks, even to your site visits not coming from Google, as well.
