It helps Google & other search engines index the full website faster (over 1400 posts submitted to google!) ## Unique JSON-TD SEO for every post! Relevant GitHub issue: [SEO: Structured Data](https://github.com/cyberpunk-ventures/glasnost/issues/10) To improve visibility on search engines, I have implemented unique JSON-TD fields for each post. SEO Metadata template: ``` ``` Example in production: ``` ``` ## Lessons learned Check out my [previous glasnost announcement](https://steemit.com/gridcoin/@cm-steem/announcing-beyondboinc-net-a-steemit-backed-blog-glasnost-v0-8) post, the comments contain many 'lessons learned' if you're interested in creating your own glasnost blog. --- Best regards, @CM-Steem
