Here I Am. Again.
It might look like I am not as active as I used to be, but I am doing a lot of work behind the scenes. I have been a part of this blockchain since the Steemit days and even though I got a huge boost of confidence and passion once I arrived on LeoFinance, I knew that things would have to change eventually..
While being a top author on LeoFinance multiple times and placing myself within the engagement leaderboards was a lot of fun, and something I personally thought would be almost impossible for me, a lot of things have changed during these past few months..
Lack of time is one of the reasons for my new approach, but I have not stopped being active for a single second. I am just not as visible anymore because I do a lot of work "behind the scenes". Work I am not being paid for and work no one have asked me to do..
Even though I decided to change my approach for various reasons, I figured that pushing out content in an attempt to grow my stake and pushing out hundreds of comments per week wasn't something that would last forever. I knew that from the start, but I did what I could for as long as I could. It was fun and an amazing experience. LeoFinance gave me a lot of confidence and it brought back motivation that I have been missing for a very long period of time..
I was eager to continue my journey and I was looking forward to place myself within the engagement leaderboards regularly and I aimed to push out a bunch of content as my goal was to grow my account, and even though I still want all of that, I have been doing things differently for quite some time.
I am more focused on boosting traffic to LeoFinance and Hive, and I do that by pushing content to the top of google. While some people are very active and visible, my work is often not visible, seen or appreciated for that very reason..
Don't get me wrong though, no one asked me to do the things I do or have done so far. No one asked me to optimize content in an attempt to increase organic traffic towards our blockchain. This is- and has been my own decision and I know that some people are grateful for the things I do. Equally grateful as I am to be a part of this amazing thing.
I have talked previously about my LeoFinance article that sits on top of google so there is a chance that you have seen that somewhere before. I am talking about:
Some of the things I have been doing lately, is to make sure that the article will remain on top of Google and I have started to rank other keywords as well. Keywords related to the previous one, but still different enough to pull in more traffic over time. I am going for organic traffic because I am certain of the fact that organic traffic can and will be game changing for all of us with time, especially with the use of evergreen content.
This is how things are right now:

As you can see, my LeoFinance articles have top positions on google for this specific search phrase for both regular searches and images, and even though this search phrase might not be a popular one, I am sure that it will bring traffic over time. Organic traffic takes time though, but the potential is unlimited.
So what I have done lately is to make small changes so I can rank different variations of the search phrase. I have been ranking other, related and- or similar keywords to increase the overall chances of pulling in organic traffic from google and it looks like this:

Some of you might think that this is literally the same keyword and that it wouldn't make any difference on the rankings, but if you look at the screenshot below, you will see that there are zero search results for images by changing just one simple word in the search phrase.
I talked about maximum exposure and covered search results and what you can do to easily come up with titles or content ideas for future optimized content a couple of days back, and this is literally what I have been doing lately as well. So even though I am not as visible on Hive or LeoFinance as I used to be doesn't mean that I have given up, quit or that I am inactive..
- It's the exact opposite!
I am filled with confidence, motivation and energy to push us to new heights and I will continue my work behind the scenes to bring us a lot of organic traffic for years to come. Like I mentioned in a previous article called: How To Make Money Blogging In 2021, that article was used for ranking and promotional purposed only.
I also mentioned that it was just one out of a handful of articles coming up in the near future and that each of them are to increase rankings and organic traffic over time. I do understand that some of those articles might not be the most interesting ones for current Lions or active Hivers, but they are useful in terms of rankings, organic traffic and growth. They are important and will basically function as additional support for our foundation to build upon.
This article is just some sort of an explanation to what I have been doing and what I will do in the near future as well.. And oh, I still have 10 CUB waiting to be used... sigh.
