Great news.
Although in terms of rewarding based on posts which rank on Google, i don't get how that's going to work long term - doesn't it take a while for a page to get ranked on Google, much longer than the 7 day pay-out window?
I should really pay more attention to SEO myself.

Yes and no, if a website is popular enough, new posts will get indexed by google within minutes of posting. The problem is, not even hive.blog is big enough to have hit that threshold yet.
High ranking on search engines will bring in new users though, so that's a benefit regardless. However, it may be worth having a way for posts to get multiple payouts if there's sudden spikes in traffic to a post long after it was posted. This will incentivise people to write higher quality posts with long term re-share value.
Also are we not SEO penalised by the slugs here? I mean the first word being leofinance rather than finance for example?
And also doesn't a site do better if it's very focused, where there's decentralisation that's unlikely to be the case!

It's more of a guess game. Have a look at beehivetrader posts for example. And then mine. Which one are gonna rank better? 🤣
Hmm, is there a right answer or is that one open to interpretation?

Yes. Depending on what you say you will earn a life time leo vote or a lifetime leo flag🤪🤪🤪
Think of it more as rewarding posts that feature good SEO fundamentals.
So properly targeting a keyword, headings and subheadings, content over 300 words etc etc.
While it might not rank instantly, you can easily tell what's going to do well longer term.

Yes fair point!
SEO is a horrible game to have to play, second guessing the Google black box.
