Create a Cornucopia of Personal Finance Content

(Edited)

Started to think about some areas where we can meet the needs of people searching for information related to personal finance. On Leofinance in particular, we seem to have the crypto, blockchain and DeFi angles covered, with a good chunk of the daily posts about those subjects. I began to realize that I spend most of my time consuming finance related content, outside of the platform, as there is a cornucopia of information available.

What I'd like to see is for us to become a one-stop-shop for personal finance. This would bring in many more new readers and increase the number of eyeballs on each post. I think if those of us out there posting, could fold in at least one post per week dedicated to personal finance outside the sphere of cryptocurrency.

For instance, if I read a tech news blog, I frequently see articles on sales I otherwise wouldn't have known about. There was an illuminating post recently about a blogger who shares shopping tips at Walmart and she has a large and growing following. This is the sort of information that is gobbled up by the general public, that I'd like to see us produce more of.

Become a digital Johnny Appleseed

Other areas of interest might include software reviews related to budgeting and posts about the life of the digital nomad in this era of lockdowns. Remote jobs and employment tips, all relate to the overall economy. This would all supplement the crypto-heavy slant we currently have and increase the breadth of what we offer.

I only wish I had more time for content creation, but will try and do what I can with the time available. If we can open our mindset and add subjects that would appeal to the general public, I think it would benefit all of us in the long run.

I've heard the past arguments that the community can't support posts outside of cryptocurrency, but I think we need to give a little now, in order to get back a lot more in the future. Give the people a reason to make Leofinance and Hive a home, by giving the people what they need. What I'd ultimately like to see is this place becoming a big tent and a destination for anyone looking to improve their lives in the world of personal finance.

Thank You So Much!

Yes, completely agree that we need to broaden the financial content on leofinance.io - I too am going to try to write more broadly than just about Leo, CUB and hive!

Good to hear that. This was prompted by my realization that I was spending more time on Yahoo Finacce and clicking on various native ads disguised as "news posts" on CNN and other related sites.

It made me think, if they're drawing my attention in, we need to do the same to bring some of that audience here to Leofinance and Hive.
