Congratulations to all participants of the HivePosh marketing program: we did it! I'm still receiving statistics on the latest Hive link shares but it's already clear we've exceeded 10,000 attracted visitors over the past month thanks to a very recent fantastic share by @theworldaroundme:
which attracted almost 1900 visitors from RedditHere: to @ecency and growing!
And thanks to an amazing write-up1100+ visitors from Reddit by @tobetada shared by yours truly, @x-rain, with to @ecency front-end:
How Much Would It Cost to Acquire 10.000 Visitors Through Ads?
Curious to know, right? That's ChatGPT's answer:
🤠🥂 This is only for a month. If extrapolated over a year, the benefit that HivePosh brings to Hive blockchain will be in the range from 36.000$ to 180.000$ annually.
And that's just the beginning: we plan to add more social media to the program. As a result, more people will be able to join, and larger goals can be achieved, such as promoting pro-Hive narratives on social media.

Thank you all for your input!
Hope this was a useful read for you, dear Hiver. Feel free to ask any questions about HivePosh and Reddit in the comments below! 🙂

Amazing stuff! Great lead as well @x-rain! Thanks a lot for helping out and bringing more traffic to our front-ends!
Yeah thanks to all the team, I gave you my witness vote as support
Thanks!
Glad I could be helpful in some way! :)
In turn, thank you for your work and your respectful and empathetic attitude towards HivePosh users and Hivers in general!
👍
Great results.
With this, Hive should get known to more people and some new users may come on board.
Keep on going. Thanks for your work @x-rain and all the others.
Thanks, true! Thank you for being part of this, @blkchn. 🤝
Great milestone! I have been posting links on Reddit, but I can probably do more and I voted for rishi and pizza witnesses :)
Thank you, I appreciate the support
I know, I personally look at each share. 🙂
Like returning to the HivePosh contest 😄 But up to you, of course. 🙂
👍 So did I.
Oh man 100k!that's huge! Well done!
We need to get hive more known in the world
A huge tuna got into my nets! 😄 But we all make progress. 20-30K views in the contest guarantee no high rank lately.
Indeed, it gets tougher 😄
This is good for Hive, if every initiative like this works, we may attract all those new people here, and maybe reach the critical mass.
Agree! 🙂
That is amazing, and also precisely the right approach because you are not promoting Hive, as much as you are promoting targeted interesting content!
I guess I am partial, because it's precisely how I ended up on Hive myself, 8 years ago: Someone sent me a link to an interesting article, and it had nothing to do with the venue, just the content.
Thank you!
Yup. Or a niche community with much engagement; they are like magnets for people with the same interests. We have positive examples like C/Feathered Friends but it would be good to see more such communities on Hive. There are some but they starve without the attention of large curators, and that's where we come across HivePosh again: by sharing Hive posts on Reddit any community can reach OCD support (HivePosh rewards are based on OCD).
Thank you for the lovely update, @xrain! A big well done to everyone for all the hard work, jumping through hoops and loops, and staying mindful and considerate outside the hive. I know it can sometimes take effort to hold back unnecessary comments, but you've all done wonderfully. Great job, everyone!
😊 Thank you for being part of this project and for your great input, @theworldaroundme! 👍
Thanks for the mention! Reddit Posh integration is going strong!
Yup. Several weeks ago, I couldn't imagine 10.000 visitors a month but HivePosh/RedditPosh users (including me) quickly improved performance + more people in the program. Let's see how far this takes us.
This is great, thank you!
I want to start posting on reddit, but do not know how to start.
I already have an account there.
Will read the guide and expect me soon!
Glad to hear this! If you have questions about Reddit/HivePosh, don't hesitate to ask me!
Thank you, I think i will!
This is great progress for HivePosh. I intend to continue using and sharing my content on both social networks.
🙂 I really appreciate how you and other guys (@agrante, @imx.center, @cryptoniusrex) from C/Gods On Chain dominate in r/GodsUnchained by constant sharing Hive posts there 🤠👍
What would also help greatly is if Google would play nice and put Hive-related search results on the top when warranted. Right now the best chance of getting visibility seems to be to share the link on Reddit and let Google pick up the title of your Reddit post.
Here is another person discussing some of this as well: https://peakd.com/hive/@achim03/rethinking-curation-on-hive
Yes, Hive isn't that SEO-friendly: slow and, because of multiple front-ends, Google might think every front-end posts much duplicate content. Also, I guess Reddit is whitelisted by Google as a well-moderated popular discussion web space. And thus it's useful to mention Hive in big discussions on Reddit - HivePosh is going to incentivize such activity soon.
Is there any place I can read a good explanation about this? I raised the issue in PeakD Discord, but for some reason there is little engagement there, which I find surprising and disappointing at the same time.
How I see it. They probably don't consider Google's ranking too important. The blockchain means Peakd is doomed to be slowish and many frontends mean a significant part of the content on Peakd is doomed to be considered duplicate by Google.
You can ask AI about Google's search ranking algorithm, and you'll see the originality of content and website speed.
So they probably decided to emphasize user experience: Peakd is slow but cute and with many functions. Someone can say AI search will replace Google search one day so why even bother. Even if Peakd was superfast and had non-dublicate unique content, it would be hard to compete with so reputable site as Reddit.
Despite this, Peakd posts can be seen on Google. With links from Reddit (thanks to HivePosh), peakd posts have slightly better chances.
(This is only my opinion.)
The data looks great @x-rain. Thanks for your work.
Thank you! I'll comment on your Reddit activity. Syria is a tough topic and a politically difficult country so it could be they (r/Syria) didn't want your share to be seen and heard in their community because [anything political]. Secondly, your account has low karma so some subreddits can ignore you for that reason (although really not many of them). As for r/BaliTravelTips, it's quite often to get nothing (1-3 upvotes) for sharing travel posts. So keep trying if you have time for that. Also consider reading Promoting Hive on Reddit: A Beginner's Guide.
This is some incredible free marketing. CTR seems to be around 1% and we get the added backlinks. Getting HIVE front ends to rank among top search results could be one of the best ways to get HIVE ready for the bull market. We are eventually going to see a crash in prices. If we can get an large enough audience and generate ad revenue to buy HIVE, we could keep HIVE price stable even during the bear market years.
Yes, SEO-effect as well. I don't mention it in my posts since it's difficult to showcase that Reddit links do change the Google search ranking of Hive pages.
Reddit to HIVE conversions are getting good, Keep up the great work and keep us updated!
Thank you! 😎
That's awesome. Keep up the good work!
🥂🙂 Thanks!
This is great traffic! Good job everyone! Keep it up!
Thank you for this supportive feedback!
Combine increased visitor numbers with the ads on peakd and we might start to generate more revenue for the whole eco-system.
That would be a win-win and could lead to more signups as well.
True. I also hope we'll get enough skilled web2 Hivers to create something more than a stream of visitors to Hive.
Gotta be careful with peakd ads on reddit, they might call you for spammer for ads
Greetings, great, I love it and I hope you can add other networks. It would be even greater opportunities to bring new ones to Hive.
We will! Thank you!
What a nice initiative, hive is really going places and it will be an incredible blockchain to reckoned with. Keep it up.
!ALIVE
Thank you!
!PIZZA
yessss supercool!!! What an initiative and sees how it pays off. Keep it rolling and let the users roll in and get more familiar with Hive!
Hi, great job driving traffic from Reddit to Hive, nice post my friend.👍👍👍
