RE: State of Steem #36 | Blockchain Activity [No.1] | Steem [$3.73] / SBD [$3.1] | Alexa Ranking [1,091] Total Accounts [722,732] Active Users [63,058]
Regarding the Alexa / Google Trends rating:
I think the main issue for a good google visibility is now not the content. It's the incoming links from other websites.
Using a few of my Marketing Tools which I can access, there are a whole load of social signals via Facebook, Twitter, etc. (which is good). But really less signals via other websites.
Maybe more users should link from their own websites to steemit, try to get this up, so the overall visibility will follow. Would also help steem as a crypto itself, I guess.
Yup, some search visibility would be awesome. However, seems like that's not the plan. I searched for my post on Google, and it doesn't even indexed. Only the profile page.
Yeah. That could have serveral reasons:
Steemit.com itself uses no xml sitemap in combination with Google Search Console (makes it harder for google to index everything in time)
Like me you are still a new account. Which means our post are only shown for a short time in the tags, when they are relatively new. So when the google bot doesn't crawl the page in this timeframe the possibility to getting indexed early reduces.
And of course not having links to this article from external websites is also a reason, that it is not yet indexed.
When you have few followers, you dont show up in many feeds (example: https://steemit.com/@mark-dahl/feed (just pick any username). Reduces also the probability of getting indexed.
True, just realize those guy posts get indexed ..
