RE: Most Steem Post Views Come After Payout! #11
With over 500 posts on my blog and ad revenue increasing as well as organic traffic, I switched to posting on Steemit because the Google organic search ranking is WAY higher here by default. When I consider posting for the next several years here or on my blog, posting on Steemit is 10 times better because of the Google ranking, possibility of immediate rewards, and greater likelihood of social sharing.
Within two months on Steemit, my posts were getting nearly double the traffic from Google that years of combined work on my blog took to get. Even with $0 in rewards, Steemit is a better option to get readers. As the price of Steem grows and more users sign up, even $1 in rewards today is likely to equal $10 or $100 worth of Steem in a few years.
Steemit is the best option for the majority of bloggers in the world with one of the main reasons to avoid Steemit being lack of total control.
OK - Thanks for that detailed reply, that does make sense.
One thing I don't get though is why is 'the Google organic search ranking for Steemit posts way higher by default'? I don't understand why that would be the case?
On the 'lack of total control' thing - I really need to be able to update my posts year on year with my other blog - it's educational, and just for user functionality I need to be able to add in links to contemporary news items.
Steemit has its uses though, I think for personal posts, just not professional use for me! But hey, for monetizing 'myself' it's the best option for sure.
Do you find that certain days of the week or time of day are better for posting on Steemit?
