Can a Blog Post Easily OutRank StackOverflow in the SERP?

Is targeting high-volume StackOverflow questions a good strategy for a technical blogger? There are definitely some pros and cons. Let’s start with the pros.

• You have a good idea of how much traffic you’ll get if you win the query.
• You have a good chance of outranking StackOverflow simply by having a better theme than they do for displaying code and getting to the point.
• You can easily skip all questions unrelated to your niche or that don’t have any apparent commercial intent.

That said, there are some serious cons to this approach as well.

• These posts will be challenging to write without technical knowledge.
• Needing technical knowledge means you can’t hire cheap writers to write these.
• You’ll need an amazing theme for displaying code to compete.
• Most questions don’t have an obvious way to monetize beyond ads.

I think this is an easy way to start a blog if you’re a blogger with technical knowledge. Simply write a post a day in addition to your day job. It will quickly add up!
