Steemit Tip: Increase The Views & Potential Payout On Your Steemit Posts With This 1 SIMPLE Trick!
Many people are not current aware that many Steemit users posts do not automatically appear on Google naturally, and if they do they tend take a fair amount of time before they are listed (at least several days after being originally posted in most cases).
Because of this it is important that you try to manually add all your new posts to Google yourself after you post them, as doing this can really speed up the Google indexing process, which is something that only takes a few seconds to do but can GREATLY increase your posts chances of success by helping to get them in front of more people who may be doing various searches using the Google search engine. This is especially important on Steemit, as the first few minutes/hours after your post is posted are the best chance you have to get upvotes and added payout for your Steemit content.
To manually add your posts to Google, simply create or log into your Google account and once done go to the Google URL Submission Tool, and from there simply input your posts url in the empty field and push "Submit Request". Once done Google will index your posts url within seconds, instead of waiting days/weeks/months to find it naturally.
Once done, to check if it worked simply go to the Google homepage and input your posts url in the search field of Google and see what happens (before pinging to Google you will see "no results found", while after pinging a post to Google you will see your post listed at the top of the search results, which tells you that your content is now available for the public to find via Google going forward).
Anyways, I just wanted to point this out as I am fairly sure most Steemit users are not aware of this and I didn't want anyone to miss some extra viewership opportunities for their Steemit posts.
This is an awesome tip, and as you pointed out, not something I was aware of.
I do, however, find your use of the 'introduceyourself' tag inappropriate, and even sketchy. There's folks out there who will, if they think you're abusing the tag, come aflaggin'.
FYI
I tagged it as introduceyourself as this is a valuable tip for people that are new to the platform and this is a good way to get the info in front of those new users faces. No sketchy intentions intended but I do see your point.
Whats up?!
