My 5 cents:
What do I mean? If you are asking, you had a good debate and interesting questions. Still, monetizing the content generated on Hive is vital to those who develop it. On other web2 social networks, it is not so important to those who create the content, at least not to the average user, because that is not what they are there for. This may be something that we should think about or that all of us who have accounts on other networks should highlight. @lordbutterfly has some ideas on how we should...
For advertising or SEO, Web3 content is less well positioned (Hive content) because it has more front-ends to access the same content. So, the approach to SEO has to be different.
You just need to create motivation for creating promotional content about Hive and flood Web2.
Will upvoting those that do it motivate others? Most definitely not. That has never worked since those that are happy to post for the rewards they get, additional work and for many stepping out of their comfort zone is a no go. And we dont need a few for some short term initiative, we need everybody.
So you need motivation in a different manner. Curators need to set expectations for their votes. They do that by restricting them to a certain amount and asking for proof of promo. That is what we are doing with Vibes and its working very well.
Anyone that thinks nice words and "les go community" will work is deluding themselves. We have thousands of people and basically no one is doing anything because they dont need to.
We need to establish system where they will do so.
I agree with that, of course. But if it had been easy, then it would have been done already. That is not the case. This profiling of your music is OK.
Inleo is also doing some activities. Liotes has also started some activities, both commercially and in terms of finance.
Another such potential is in photographs, let's say (my opinion). There are many excellent photographers on Hive. But, of course, there has to be someone who will run it regularly like you have Vibes. But where is he?
And there is a lot of examples...
Why do you think it is important here, and it's not important there? I heard a lot of times that the "guilty party" is always Hivians who create content... How they don't care about it, how it's rubbish and similar... Web2 is full of garbage posts, but the platforms still succeed in monetizing that... The point of discussion was to look at things on the other side... How could our frontends adapt and monetize the content?
I'm a bit annoyed by the same comments about the content quality on HIVE, and how the blogging part of HIVE is useless...
Exactly! The point is to find a different approach to that, and not blame authors for "bad content"...
As I mentioned @lordbutterfly, he has set up one profiling, so music and contests to attract people to the Hive blockchain; I'm saying that @liotes and Inleo have also set up a similar way of bringing people to the chain in the financial field. So, I call it profiling, activities to attract a specific group to the network... There is a lot of space here (photography, travel, nature, etc.), and someone has to start working on it. Just where is it?
you and @seckorama mentioned SEO and multiple frontends. I know there is a term for claiming the content (where it was originally posted) and only frontend that managed to "keep" it under them is Travelfeed. No idea how they did it.
I have 2-3 posts that are top 10 SEO written on Travelfeed and google always shows TravelFeed link. "Cats Corfu" search is in top 5 results for 5 years now and when ever i check it is Travelfeed front end.
I got decent ranking on Plitvice post. I wrote it in Peakd, but google showed it in Hive.blog for few weeks. Now i did the search and "Plitvice Lakes Photography Tips" was at second page as peakd post. And i tried adding rain "Plitvice Lakes Photography Tips Rain" and it was top 4 result but in ecency 🤷♂ and for some reason non of them have photo preview.
