most people i know use google by searching whatever question they have and including the word “reddit” at the end to find reddit threads since it currently has the most useful information.
As Lemmy gets more and more filled with useful threads and reviews it would be great if we can collectively improve Lemmy’s SEO so just including the word lemmy in a search will show lemmy threads related to the search.
The obscure tlds used in lemmy servers don’t help and lemmy.com currently redirects to lemm.ee. Is there a way we can improve the SEO of all instances or have lemmy.com be a aggregator of threads from many Lemmy servers?
So, let’s think about this for a moment. When you want to search by ‘Lemmy’ what are you interested in? Content from a user who is using Lemmy to post somewhere? Content that is sitting on a Lemmy-based server?
What if the content was posted by a Lemmy user onto a Kbin kbin-based community or vice versa? What about other software that posts and hosts content on the threadiverse?
