Lol interesting point. I guess might be just totally different perspectives of thinking about it. I know whenever I write a troubleshooting question on reddit/forums etc, I try to include multiple forms of the same keyword (writing ”hackernews”/”hacker news”/”HN”) that’s relevant to what I’m talking about, in my post, with the idea that maybe it’ll help more search engines parse it for a greater variety of similarly-related queries. I know whenever I search google I often try multiple successive searches using variations of the same word(s) to try & catch any missed gems in the results.

So like, maybe you sound like the type trying to build a brand or something, and would benefit from more eyes on your content in a given time? Maybe some people are apocalypse preppers and like the idea of if their posts had a greater chance of surviving among the limited number of digital archives left standing in the ruins, lol
