Introduction
Greetings everyone, my name is @mularh and I'm glad to pen down my 3rd newbies initiative task.
Firstly, I would like to thank @starstring01 and @projectmamabg for their hardwork and support.
I missed the first meeting due to some personal issue at my house, I try to as much as possible not to miss the previous meeting which I didn't but there were some setback that day and we had issue with internet connection, so @starstring01 decided to make a video, I watched the video and I will be answering some of the questions asked.
1. WHICH DAPPS DO YOU USE AND WHY?
I took note something while watching the video, @starstring01 mentioned he mostly used the peakd dapp, there are numerous Dapps which includes Peakd,Hiveblog,ecency,and 3speak and so on, but among all my favorite is peakd and the reason is that this dapp is easy to understand, the features are superb.
2. HOW DO YOU SEE HIVE NOW COMPARED TO WHEN IT WAS STILL STEEM? HOW MUCH HAS THE PLATFORM CHANGED AS A NEW USER?
I joined Hive this year, I don't really know much about Steem, but with what I heard from the old members Hive reward quality and original contents, Hive really hate plaigiraism, furthermore you can't buy votes on Hive and Hive is a community based platform, that's you will definitely find a niche you belong to. Hive is doing great with the price surging higher and higher.
3. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING PEAKD?
Like I previously stated, Peakd is easy to use, the features are superb and newbies can easily navigate their way round the Dapp. In addition, with peakd you can filter post using the author username, community or the topic of the post, this and many more are some of the benefits of using peakd.
4. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING ECENCY?
I've used Ecency couple of times, infact I recently discovered you earn points for interacting or using this Dapp, this point can be used to boost any post including your personal post.
This is one of the benefits attached to using Ecency. Another benefit is that you can claim all your Hive engine rewards using the Ecency wallet this and many more are the benefits of using Ecency
5. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS ABOUT USING HIVE BLOG?
When I signed up on Hive, I made use of Hive.blog in my first 1 week, what I like about this Dapp is the wallet section here you can easily swap your HBD to Hive or vice-versa using the internal market
6. WHAT IS 3SPEAK?
3speaks is a web3 video site that is a video decentralized platform developed on the Hive Blockchain. This Dapp is used to upload videos, contents, or videos creators earn money by uploading their video contents on this Dapp. This is just like YouTube, but the difference is that 3Speak is decentralized that's built on the blockchain (Hive).
7. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS ABOUT USING 3SPEAK?
I haven't use 3Speak before but I've seen a couple of contents posted using this Dapp, there are numerous benefits of using 3Speak
If you create orginal and quality contents you are rewarded massively
For people that aren't good at writing but good at oral, with 3speak they can easily showcase their skills and earn
Finally, you earn for expressing yourself through video, interesting isn't it?
8. HOW DO YOU EARN UPVOTES ON 3SPEAK? WHAT ARE THE KEY REQUIREMENTS?
You can gain upvotes on 3speak through your hive account from others who appreciate your contents, as well as through 3speak's curation trails, as long as you post original and high-quality video.
Don't forget high quality and orginal videos will definitely earn you upvotes, since Hive in general support contents that are orginal and made of high qualities.
9. HOW MUCH VIDEOS YOU MUST MAKE TO GET NOTICED?
In general, quantity doesn't matter as long as you contribute or make something that others will value; this is also true on 3speaks; you don't need to publish a lot of videos to get noticed or gain support; as long as the videos are of great quality, you'll be OK. Furthermore, much as it is necessary to engage in 3speaks in the blogging side of hive, it is also crucial to engage in 3speaks since it draws more eyes and interests back to your site or content.
10. WHAT IS THE BEST LENGTH FOR A VIDEO TO GET THE MAXIMUM OF THE VOTES
The maximum upvotes are determined by the video's quality and originality. There are, however, length requirements. According to @starstrings01, the video must be longer than one minute. Overall, the best thing you can do is create high-quality videos that will help your audience.
11. ARE VIDEOS MADE LIKE PRESENTATION AND HUMAN VOICE SUCCESSFUL?
I think so, like I've been saying 3Speaks rewards orginal videos, so producing videos using your normal voice will definitely be successful infact that's the best since you are real and genuine.
12. IS IT HARD TO BECOME A VLOGGER?
I don't think becoming a vlogger is difficult at all; yeah, it can be stressful, but if you set your mind to it, you can accomplish it.
I would just suggest that you buy some nice equipment and start someplace, as well as allowing yourself to make mistakes as you improve. Also make sure you produce orginal and quality vlog that will impact your veiwers life positivity.
13. EVERYTHING SOUNDS GREAT, NOW HOW TO MAKE AN ACCOUNT AND RUN IT?
There are numerous Dapps on Hive and you can easily create an account using your preferred Dapp.
The first step is to select your preferred Dapp or frontend, create an account, and obtain some resource credits, which will assist you in creating posts, commenting, and engaging on the platform. You can obtain resource credits by purchasing Hive and powering up, or by receiving delegation from your onboarder.
It's also important to look into communities that interest you and participate religiously in them since it exposes you to new people.
