RE: Steemit Bots Attack Blogger for Reposting Own Content - Dictatorship by Algorithm?

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

it's about seo;
you need to link to the original article, also known as a canonical url;
https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/139066?hl=en

when you forget to do so, it's bad for the seo of steemit, which is why the bot is fixing your mistake by dropping the link in the comments

next time ... just drop the link to the original article ...
no need to whine about it; not dropping the link is hurting the seo of steemit!!
