The upvotes are not given because you used the tag. They are given because you powered up and not because you used the tag.
This isn't a rule. I am only advising you to be a better Steemian so that when you use the tag, you will get the view you're searching for.

By misusing the tag, you even make work more difficult for the curation team and that's why most posts have been abandoned because the tag is trending, but power ups are not trending.

If we all used that tag only when we powered up, we all will get upvotes from the curation team because searching club posts will be easier for the curation team.
