Leofinance Linked In The Washington Post

in #hive-1679223 years ago

The power of the community cannot be understated. It is very difficult to get things going from scratch. However, with each of us contributing on a daily basis, over time, things expand.

Luck is often described as the result of hard work. Sometimes, as a community, we can get very lucky. This is what took place recently.

When it comes to driving traffic to Leofinance, there is no doubt back links are vital. The more the search engines see Leofinance.io, the better. Of course, just posting on worthless sites (according to the SEO rankings) doesn't accomplish a great deal. It is when high quality sites in regards to the spiders have your links that things really start to change.

Could this be happening to Leofinance?

Backlink From The Washington Post

There was an article about the hack of Axie Infinity for more than $600 million in the Washington Post.

For those who do not know, the Washington Post is a heavily read publication. The Alexa ranking on this site is #331. In comparison, Leofinance.io is place at #51,374. That means this is a backlink that will help Leofinance.io. Having links from sites that rank higher is a good thing.

As we progress through the story, we see this paragraph.

Here is what we need to focus upon:

high cost to play

Notice what it links to. It is a post on our very own Leofinance. It is a post about the high cost of Axie Infinity.

I would surmise the reporter who wrote the article did a search and that likely came up. This shows how having different keywords relating to specific ideas is important. There was a push a while back to get content relating to both Splinterlands and Axie Infinity out there. By getting some of it ranked, we can fall into a situation like this.

Leofinance Is Business Building

We are watching a Web 3.0 ecosystem in the making. Leofinance is a community that is a combination of the users along with the development team. The tentacles of the ecosystem are expanding outward, including a massive push into the Decentralized Finance world. Here we are seeing what the team is calling Defi 2.0.

Leofinance.io is the flagship of the entire project. While it seems overlooked at times, all is meant to ultimately drive value back here. In the meantime, we are responsible for producing the content that can rank within search engines and put the links out there. It is a role we all can play.

At the moment the team is doing a lot of promotion of the latest project, Polycub. This is just another tentacles that is designed to reach out to a wider audience. It also is very powerful to enhance the wealth of those who are on Leofinance.

As always, long-term focus is key. Getting SEO rankings is not an overnight endeavor. One of the keys is to have time that the site is running. On this, there is no shortcut. Also, we need to creating content that make the site more dynamic and diverse. Keyword ranking in different categories is crucial. This can only be done by producing articles that the search engines find appealing.

We all want the overnight success. However, in business, it is often the slow and steady that win the race. It takes time for things to filter out as they need to, especially online. Having a back link from the Washington Post is crucial. Perhaps a couple other sites will pick up the article.

Either way, we are seeing a lot happening with Leofinance. As the development team is working on the different applications, the rest of us can contribute through out activity and marketing. Posting links on different social media does help to drive some traffic. That is one of the keys to getting improved rankings.

This is a game of attrition. Collectively, we all just need to keep plugging along. This is about building.

And by doing that, once in a while a bit of luck comes our way.

That's pretty awesome!!! Let's hope some people click and join 🙌 I wonder what the chances are that the reporter might come back, and become a part of the community?

Probably not much. Think about the links you come across. Do you join most of those sites?

The value is that it is a high quality link. This is something that will keep helping the rankings. Thus it could send more traffic to Leofinance.

It's a huge thing since The Washington Post will continue to send the traffic to Leo Finance, hopefully, forever. 🚀

SEO is powerful and we could use some more of these backlinks in popular media publishing websites.

It will really be helpful if a couple other sites pick up the story. That will add even more high quality links to Leofinance.

The first is the toughest. It might get easier from here.

In a game of attrition, those left standing are the winners. Our patience will be rewarded. !BEER

LOL that is a great way to phrase it. We are going to see a lot more happening over the next year. So we will just keep pushing things forward.

More content means a greater chance that google can pick up on quality Leofinance.io content.

Slow and steady! I never thought of back links. Thanks for explaining what that is actually.

I sure hope there are other big sites who will pick up that link. On my end mostly telling friends and family to use LeoFinance for their crypto education.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's it. As leo finance is moving slow and steady. I believe Soon is going to be on top like other crypto currency.

Very nice to highlight that and it's one of the things I try to do with posts these days is to focus on something that everyone is talking about currently.

But making sure to use good sources as well as tags in the heading and the body is a key tip.

Thanks for breaking this down for us as curators and authors it's good information to consider.

It looks like the SEO efforts back when Axie was popular paid off. If we can get a few more backlinks like this, then I think LeoFinance will move up in the rankings.

That's a nice backlink. I can't really tell if it is a dofollow or nofollow link but it's great to see. And, it's nice to know that leofinance posts are getting indexed so nicely in google. I'm sure we will be used as a source more and more in the future. It's all good stuff!!!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes it is nice to see. We are going to have to keep pushing but it is a positive.

One step at a time.

just seeing a reference to #Leofinance in the Washington Post is great I've read that many people around the world read it and having that visibility shows the growth not only of #Leofinance but also of the entire #Hive family and the chain of blocks and with it a better future for all of us.

It was a huge step forward.

You know a project is most likely to succeed when it continues to develop and market itself. This is no rocket science. If there is any reason to be bullish about leofinance it is the fact that is intentional about its growth. The future really looks bright for the ecosystem.

As regards SEO, I will make out time to write one decent and well-researched post one or twice a month. It is a lot harder than writing opinion pieces but it is worth it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes it is harder. We need to keep doing the little things to make Leofinance more visible. It all adds up.

This is crazy amazing and what a big blow from a marketing perspective. There is no limit to what a united community can do following the same goals!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That link has so far brought 164 visits to Leofinance from readers of that article.

Also, note that the next line, being msn.com is also all traffic to that article, they likely syndicated the washington post story.

So that is 274 external visitors to Leo in a couple days, from high quality mainstream sources.

Shout out to @forexbrokr for the ongoing work he does, you just never know when something you have put out there will get traction.

Also keep in mind that the real long-term value in that link, is that it comes from an extremely high authority domain.

If a high authority domain is linking to leofinance.io, then it helps Google see value in our other content.

The impact will only compound over time as the searches update their rankings.
