I think spamming Hive links on Reddit or X actually lowers the value of Hive according to most algorithms. I also think most people are looking for relevant one off content. It would be far more beneficial if non-Hivers could initially subscribe to Hivers content without signing up. Competition for Hive is actually with Wordpress and adding more features here for bloggers, SEO, homepages etc..would be far more beneficial imo.

Hey.
Nobody promotes spamming here. Some subreddits hate links to blogs, some subreddits want them. For example, some national or regional subreddits (like Georgia or Kyrgyzstan I tried this week) do want to see what foreigners write about their countries. Subreddits of small non-touristy US states do want to see detailed reports on their local sightseeing places. Or let's say a vegan subreddit can be happy to get a detailed authentic vegan recipe from India - they might have zero Indians there at all. Etc. Moreover, any link poster can become a reader of the subreddit or even an active poster there - small subreddits know that well.
We don't need to choose between sharing Hive links and other activities, these things can co-exist. Moreover, sharing links is actually SEO so @redditposh can be considered a SEO tool.
I know what you mean, but adding unnatural links lowers SEO scores. If you had 5 links from 20 removed, that's a pretty high metric, and I would say your Blogposts are some of the more higher quality ones compared to most of the spam promoted with Posh.
Looks you don't understand the term you use. A link from social media (Reddit) that leads from a subreddit, for example, about tourism in Poland to a Hive article about tourism in Poland can't be called unnatural. And this is exactly how @redditposh works.
In what Universe it's true? 😃
Thank you for your opinion but looks like we won't agree. Thanks for contributing to the discussion.
Yeah not sure I understand his thought process either, Reddit was literally started as a link sharing platform. Sure nowadays with their upcoming IPO and adding their own img and video hosting it's become a bit "unfriendlier" towards links sending people to other sites but I doubt small sites like our ecosystem is a big threat to them. Pretty sure they're mostly concerned over youtube, facebook, Instagram, etc links.
