Welcome to LeoFinance, Luke. Happy to see some of the HIVE witnesses starting to contribute to the community driving adoption outside the current Hive echo-chamber.
What was your thinking behind using the LeoFinance interface for this FIO blog, rather than one of the other regular Hive URLS? Is it just about picking up a few extra tokens, or do you see value in having the original post under the leofinance.io domain?
I'm really interested in hearing about what our witnesses like you think and how you see communities such as this fitting into Hive's growth overall.
Cheers and see you around the community :)

Sorry I don't have a more sophisticated answer, but sometimes I just feel like posting on PeakD or Hive Blog or Ecency or LeoFinance (if it's financial or crypto related). This one was crypto related, so I posted here.

I'm more thinking about the long term value of the content you've posted. It will disappear from the Hive front-ends within a few days, but posts like this definitely have long term SEO potential to bring traffic from the outside world.
This post is a well structured, evergreen post. Exactly what external businesses such as FIO could be doing to further build their presence online.
In my opinion, the work that the LeoFinance team is doing on their domain to boost our SEO presence is a huge plus for Hive overall and something that doesn't get spoken enough about in the general Hive community.
Something for you to consider both as an external business owner and Hive witness :)

Was the conical url issue ever resolved? Meaning, if I share this same post from different domains, does that hurt the SEO for the content?
The post being evergreen is not impacted at all by whether or not it's on the front page of LeoFinance. It's the URL that matters and since this is blockchain content, I can share it from any front end I want forever, yes?

This was fixed in the end, right @khaleelkazi?
We didn't even have to edit the old post and republish for it to update?
The content is there on your account forever at the blockchain level, yes. In that sense, you're right that it doesn't matter where you published your post from.
But a lot of what LeoFinance is doing, is trying to break away from thinking about about the insular Hive community and trying to get as many outside eyeballs on our content as possible.
To do this, we still need Google and to follow all of their general SEO recommendations around keywords, structure and the domain.
While your blog was published across multiple domains, content published at leofinance.io is being positioned to be looked upon more favourably by Google.
A major advantage to Hive here is that businesses/influencers/individuals like yourself, can take advantage of LeoFinance to get as many outside eyeballs as possible on their content.

Btw, did you get a FIO Address yet?
