Every week 5 best writers on the platform will get bonuses from 1100 SCR pool.

Each day a lot of high-quality, interesting, and most importantly original texts are published on Scorum. But, unfortunately, not many people see and read them.

One of the most important components of any media project success is a search engine optimization. However, if in classical online media the key aspects of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) are specified at the level of editorial policy of the publication and at meetings with specialists, in our case there are no levers of influence on authors.

The idea of ​​a blockchain project does not allow us (both morally and technically) to interfere in the creative process of users, changing something in their publications. Even the author himself is unable to make any changes to his text after 7 days.

So we’ve came with another solution of this problem. Now every week we will financially reward users whose materials will attract the greatest amount of search traffic. You can write both, texts that will always be in demand, or seek for the topics of current interest dedicated to the actual event.

At the end of each week, we will award 5 authors:

  • 1st place - 500 SCR;
  • 2nd place - 300 SCR;
  • 3rd place - 150 SCR;
  • 4th place - 100 SCR;
  • 5th place - 50 SCR.

We will also try to help you make your posts SEO-oriented and give useful tips. In order not to overload, let's start with the main ones.

The first thing you should pay attention to is the heading.

For example, if you are writing a preview of a match, add the names of teams (names of opponents) and the word "preview" or "announcement" in the header. If you are making a forecast on the outcome, then write in the title "forecast". By the way, forecasts and previews for sporting events are always popular — having written them, you have good chances to get search traffic.

Another example: instead of the heading "My favorite stadium" it is better to use "My favorite stadium — Old Trafford, United Kingdom. History, photos and video."

Pondering over the title, weigh, on what request your text will have to be found in a search engine, which key works can characterize it. At the same time, don’t make the title entirely “SEO” - people should still react positively to it.

Another important factor is links to your article from external resources. After posting an article on Scorum, place a link to it on social networks, forums, in related groups and etc. Thanks to it the search engine will be able to better assess the significance of your material.

And, of course, the size of your article plays important role — very short posts, as a rule, are inferior in search results to more detailed texts. Unless, of course, the word count is inflated with meaningless parts.

So the first week starts today and will run until June 30. Later on we will summarize the results and award the best. Same will be done next week, and a week after it, and so on and so on. Pay attention that we will take into account post that were posted on the platform since its launch. However, the conditions of the bonus program may change — stay tuned.

We hope you enjoy our new initiative. You are welcome to ask your questions.
