DAY 3 STEEMIT: THE FOREIGN COUNTRY (FOR THOSE GETTING HERE FROM YT)

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

OK Ok I have read the other 2 Blogs on this and followed the suggestions, I secured my password and set up my posting password and I am following those folks you suggested I follow, I am also wanting to be a beneficial member to this platform, so now tell me how to get seen here and make money!

TAGS:
Coming from YT you learned about tags to get seen by the algorithm (bad tag and you go to the dead never to be seen zone).

HERE AT STEEMIT THE TAGS ARE CRUCIAL!

A bad tag can get several responses from not being seen to a few bots coming to down vote you for abusing the tag (who knew tags have feeling???) and ya lose either a good upvote amount or some of your reputation.

I am going to show in 2 example of tags done right and done wrong and am using OGN @offgridnation to show the right and the wrong (yes I adore Tommy and he knows there is no evil in me picking and busting his chops).

LINK TO RIGHT:
https://steemit.com/bundy/@offgridnation/bundystrong-trial-insider-updates

Scroll down and look at the 5 tags he used #1 Bundy, #2 trial, #3 updates, #4 liberty, #5 homestead and yet in spite of these good tags he used it has only been seen 6 times.

LINK TO WRONG:
https://steemit.com/bundy/@offgridnation/ghetto-goat-house-build-less-than-usd8

Scroll down and you see he used the same tags as he did the last one...
What a goat house building has to do with Bundys I have no clue but suspect OGN was short on time and just ran with it.

Now I am going to drop in just 2 links to good information about the why's and what fors for listing your article and getting the tags right.
