I am at that particular point on my forum. Basically some more checking and testing, but basically a whole lot of posting.

I already setup some Google tools so now I am discoverable somewhere on the serps.

But I expect many months of content building with few members.

I dont want to spam my name on websites everywhere. For now I will let it be organic.

I was gunning for the same thing. But, I didn't realize that RS was on Google's Safe Content search list for a minute (as I have mine off), which explained the non-existent SEO growth.

Numbers since rebranding have multiplied by factors.
