I noticed one of these users making the same mistake I made when I first joined. I wanted to make a quick post to help new Steemians have a successful launch on the platform!
What was my big mistake?
👉Tagging
When I first joined the platform I wondered why I was not getting any views or upvotes. It took me awhile to realize it was because I was tagging posts incorrectly. I would use one or two tags I made up that I thought were relevant. This is not
the best way to tag posts. Hopefully this post helps new Steemians avoid my mistakes.Tags will help people find your posts.
👉Tags
Each post can have up to five tags, separated by spaces.
The first tag in the list will be the main category that the post is in.
The tags should all be relevant to the content in the post.
You can browse content by tags, as well as see a list of popular tags that other users have used in their posts here .
Steemit is still growing and because of this it is best to use already established tags where people are likely to look mixed in with your own.
He would also have been better off if he used the maximum number of tags to connect with users of similar interests.
👇Conclusion
Remember, when tagging posts to use the following guidelines for the best result...
Tagging has a big impact on the success of your posts so take the time to do it right
Use the maximum number of tags
Use a mixture of well established tags and your own
Make sure all of your tags are relevant to your post
The first tag will be the main category of your post
I hope this will help you make the most of your posts! @richieadex
