Palnet seems to be sucking away Leo's traffic and I wonder why. Since I've been into SEO of late due to obvious reasons I once figured out that the ability for frontends on hive to display whichever content they see fit from the Hive blockchain may have a demerit on how search engines treat the overall content.

Seeing your title I immediately believed this post was great for SEO, and I decided to run a search immediately and guess the result?

This is not the first time I'm seeing this, Palnet always ends up getting ranked for a couple of posts even when it is not the specified canonical link, given that this post was published via leofinance.io.

To be doubly sure, I decided to run a site check via the planet link to see if the SEO tool will detect that the link is canonicalized and here's the result;

Indeed, I was right, it does point to Leofinance.io

I decided to run through the search results if Leo will be underneath but didn't find it anywhere so I had to result to using a tool to find the URL position in the search result for the query and see the result;

Not Found, Leofinance.io isn't even in the search results, but when I changed it to planet.io and here:

It was spotted in 3rd position, not too far off from the position it is in my search result which is 2nd.

Weird?

That would mean that potential Leo traffic may be getting sucked away by Palnet, cause I checked other frontends which were tagged in this post but none showed up.
