How long can your message be?

The large of posts are limited to about 64,000 characters including layout. This is sufficient for most messages. If you write blogs, consider how many people are willing to read at the same time.

Add a tag.

What are tags?

Tags are a way to categorize your content so that others can find it. The more relevant the tags for the post are, the more like-minded people will encounter them.

Which tags should I use?

  • Try to use tags that are relevant to your message, and that will be popular for other people to browse. For example, "Mytriptoalaska" may be relevant to your message, but readers will probably not look for it. The use of 'travel' in this case would be a better choice for a tag.
  • You can browse through frequently used tags using the "Explore" link in the main menu.
  • Please note when choosing tags. If your tags are not related to your message, your message may get downvotes.
  • All tags must be lowercase. Spaces are not allowed, but broken words with a single dash are.

How many tags can I use?

You can use up to 5 tags per message.

Choose the "NSFW" tag (not safe for work) with content such as nude, porn, etc. or with content that should NOT be visible to minors.
