Daily Smart Tags Report - Friday, 2nd February 2018
As a marketing consulting, I always advice clients to niche themselves in market segments that are to their advantage, so they can have the edge over the competition. I started realising that a big part of being successful at Steemit is in the choice of tags I used, so I started compiling a simple excel sheet daily to tabulate the tags with the highest profitability - high payouts, low competition.
Kinda like SEOs' "high searches, low bids".
Hopefully, it can help you tag your Steemit posts effectively, and even help you identify profitable topics that you can write on. Stay awesome!
*If you need some quick tips on how to implement the info here, or why is it important, scroll till you reach the end of the table.

*Those in bold & italics are tags with high engagement (high number of comments).
How to make these numbers work for you?
If you look at the tags with the highest payouts, they usually have highest number of posts too. The analogy is this: imagine a huge pond with tons of people in it. It's crowded, and it's not gonna be an enjoyable swim. Imagine looking further down the road, and you see another pond, much smaller, but with only a handful of people. Ahhhh…. Heavenly instagramer (sorry, Steepshot-er) moment!
So one way of leveraging on this table of info, is after you've done drafting your content and about to post it, identify a few tags with good profitability.
Please make sure the tags make sense though! It's pointless to insert a profitable tag but your content have nothing to do with it. You'd pissed your readers off!
Another way you can use this info, is to identify high profitable tags, and produce contents around them.
You may also want to take note of the number of comments, because it tells you what kind of contents get more engagement.
Do take note not all tags can be used, no matter how profitable they are. Some tags are for private groups or communities. Always do a research on them before using.
Wait, why's Mav posting on Steemit nowadays?
Well, unlike other blogging and social media platform, Steemit is the only platform that allows me to earn cryptocurrency when I engage with it. Yup, one Steem is about USD7, and you, too, can earn Steem Dollars every time you:
- Create content (articles, blog posts, podcasts, videos, photos)
- Upvote (like) other people contents
- Comment on other people's posts
- Have discussions, share opinions etc!
Yup, basically it's the very same thing you're doing on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc all along!
The only difference? For once you can earn a nice income on the side!
Sign up for a free Steemit account, and you can thank me by coming back and upvoting this article. And guess what, you will earn Steem too for doing that! #awesome
Please let me express that you are one such an inspirational figure in digital marketing. Your posts have helped me survive on stemmit.
Wow, that means a lot, brother. Thanks! Let's move from survive to thrive, shall we? Have a nice weekend. :)
Thanks for taking the time to compile these lists- they are always appreciated..
This is something I often googled before following your page.
Thanks for the support!
I guess when it comes to Steemit, it's not just how creative you are with your articles, but also how strategic you are with them. A good article, poorly positioned, will just be a waste of good effort.
Yeah tell me about it. I have spent hours on multiple articles that catch very little attention. I’m not a half asser by any means. Hopefully it will pay off in the long run. Thanks for the tips.
I like to thing there's a place and time for everything in life. :)
One again an excellent and insightful article! I'll see how my next few posts go using your info - much appreciated!
Yeah. Best to test it out. :)
Good work @maverickfoo.
good job my brother @maverickfoo

Good work.
