Greetings Leofinance community.

Each week, this report will be produced to focus on the performance and growth (hopefully) of the Leofinance platform, and look at the initiatives that LeoAlpha has been working on.

Over the last week, I have not been as active, with some real world stuff taking priority. I have shared and tweeted when I could, but the main thing I have been working on this week has been building up some curation power in this account. At some point soon^tm, this account will be added to the "official curation" ranks with a delegation confirmed to be on its way by Hive account@khaleelkazi. In the meantime I have been starting to lease some Leo Power, both from the LeoFi platform and also through a private arrangement. I am also delegating my personal LEO to this account.

As a piece of full disclosure, this account is fully approved by Khal, but ownership of it and any income/assets generated are retained by myself - Hive account@jk6276. Supporting it with votes is supporting my efforts to promote the Leofinance platform externally. I have delegated my personal LP basically to save myself from having to curate from 2 separate accounts, or set up auto-votes. All Hive account@leoalpha votes are manual.

The top tweets selection is similar to last week,, with my efforts this week not really gaining alot of traction. As I said, I was less active, and it shows in these results. Still, the account added 20 new followers, and I should be much more active in the coming week to get back to driving this forwards.

Make sure you follow LeoAlpha on twitter

Because of my low activity level this week, I have not done much to update the LeoAlpha subreddit this week. We currently have 7 members joined, but I'll lift the effort this week and try to build it up.

Metrics: Alexa.

Over the last week, we gained another 2000 ratings places from Alexa. The positive momentum continues, which is very nice to see.

The interesting thing to note is that Nearly a quarter of all the traffic coming to Leofinance is coming from search results. This compares favorably to other Hive platforms, like Splintertalk, Hive.blog and Peakd. Alexa compares Leofinance to these, and it is positive I think that our search results are strong. The growth of search as a traffic source is likely the main driver of the improvement in the overall Alexa ranking for Leofinance.

Overall traffic for the week to Leofinance was slightly up compared to last week. We did better with Google referrals, but dropped for Twitter and most other sources of external traffic.

Two of the top 10 pages visited this week were guides to various aspects of Polygon, by Hive account@finguru and Hive account@jmsansan.leo, both of which were posted months ago. Also, the article from Hive account@handtalk5 was still comfortably in the top 10 pages. These results show the benefits of producing evergreen content. Posts may not gain instant success, but over time they can pick up traction and when google likes sending people to a certain article, it produces growth in the visibility of the whole platform and the authority of the site. I would encourage you to look favorably on the above mentioned content creators and consider rewarding their efforts on future posts.

Overall, a solid week for Leofinance. Traffic slightly up, Alexa ranking improving, increased search engine results, and some good content around the place. Sorry personally for not being very active, the upcoming week should be much better. On another note, I have seen a couple of posts shared on twitter, tagging Leoalpha account which is great. However, these people have shared the Peakd post link. That is also great, and good for the overall Hive ecosystem, however this account exists to promote native Leofinance content. Something to keep in mind.

Cheers all,

JK.
