I have tried this a while back. I haven't decided if it is good for me or not. I'm trying to figure out the best way to take advantage of the mix of WP and Steemit and as always there are pros and cons of everything. My current concern for myself is SEO and prioritizing Steemit with the final curation on my WP site. If there was a way to organize pages and links here, I would dump my WP site for sure...
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Do you have your own URL on the WP site?
If yes, would it be worth giving this up and move to steem? What other features do you think are vital to bloggers to make the jump?
Not, that I want to tell you, that you would need to make the jump. I'm just curious what could drive the steem blockchain a little bit more to mass adoption!
I have my own URL, diggndeeper.com. It is hosted on a public server that I maintain.
That is a difficult one, but I have given it a lot of thought. WP is hard to beat and not even necessarily something that should be beat. For myself, I would like a way to create navigation from a landing page. What I mean is that when people land on @diggndeeper.com, I could display a landing page that could then be navigated through from there to other posts like a regular website. I said I would leave my site, I'm not entirely sure I would because of the flexibility a traditional web structure provides.
So, Steemit and the other Steem apps remain more of a content creation stream and I would like to combine that with a more finalized yet fluid curation structure that I currently can only imagine to be done with traditional navigation and other web site features.
Its beyond me to know. I really think the Steem blockchain is onto something amazing. Hopefully, more brilliant creators keep showing up and creating apps and using them in interesting ways. We may not have even seen the best way to use this yet.
Thanks for sharing your experience @diggndeeper.com
I do not know how it affects SEO although they do claim it is delayed posting. I am not sure that will solve the problem.
It will be interesting to see how it all unfolds.
I think it is true that most of the WP users are bloggers and if that is true, then this should suit most of them and with the added value of crypto payouts that seems really likely to draw a lot of interest.
I agree with you.
For 90% of the sites, I am sure SEO ranking means little since they probably rank very low anyway. The bigger sites, they are the ones concerned about it.
Even if there is somewhat of a hit for a medium sized blog in SEO, you would think the rewards on Steemit make up for it...
Again, just speculation.
