How to win on Dev.to
- 01
Pick four precise tags
Tags drive discovery on Dev.to. Choose the ones a developer would actually follow over broad vanity tags.
- 02
Set the canonical URL
If the piece also lives on your blog, set the canonical link so search engines credit the original.
- 03
Lead with the problem
Open with the bug or the goal, not the backstory. Developers skim until they find the part that helps.
Common mistakes
- Tag stuffing with unrelated tags that bury the post.
- Publishing without a canonical URL and splitting SEO across two copies.
- Code samples without language hints, which render flat.
