Very good point made by @fyrstikken about not having to write for Google SEO algo's. You can actually focus on the content 100%. Thank you @sykochica for doing this interview and of course, @fyrs as well

I totally agree with you there! I don't think I'd stay motivated writing with SEO in mind, way more fun just blurting out what I've actually got to say and edit a little from there.
I was happy to do it, wanting to try something a little new for me. But @fyrstikken is the star! I just lobbed some questions. Lol

This was a very good interview and what was mentioned above about not having to write for Google SEO is super huge. When I upload videos to YouTube for Steemit I'm not even super concerned about my YouTube tags or gaining subscribers on YouTube for the content. It is just a place to serve up my video. I also experienced the same thing @fyrstikken has experienced where it is almost like people don't even watch the videos a lot of times. People are looking at a post real fast and pulling main points and looking to see if it seems as if a lot of time was put into the post to try to get the curation reward.

TY!
I've read dana-edwards talk about the attention scarcity on here, which ties in with people not watching the videos. It's not the end of the world, but it definitely seems to be mutually exclusive to the goal of content be digested as well as distributed. Some posts are more easily scanned than others, it takes less time to look at a few photos versus reading a few pages of a story or a full writeup on a topic. Not a complaint, but something I've noticed.
For now I'm trying to include a TL;DR section at the top of my written posts to at least make me feel better, maybe for video/audio I can put topics with timestamps that goto that time in the video on click as an equivalent.
Hehe, sry. Now I'm just brainstorming outloud :P

This was actually my first time trying to interview. The podcast is way easier since I can just go with the flow of conversation.
Thank you for listening! :)

suggestion: when readying for interview, of course make a list of questions. BUT, also, for every question, prepare an answer if (Interviewee) answers negatively OR if answers positively ... that way you are never caught off guard !!!
Just a thought !!!
BTW, I thought you did good !
