How To Use Tags Correctly: A Guide for Begginers

If you are using only most popular tags for your post, you are doing it wrong. Besides, this is what most people do on this platform.

So why doesn`t it help to use these tags? Although chance of people browsing in these tags are higher, there are also hundreds of users who push the post button in the same time as you do. This means your post will be very unluckly to end up on top of new posts. Using less popular tags will give you chance to show your article on the top of the page. Therefore, less popular tags are more usefull than you think. They also help you to target more specific audience which are more likely to be interested in your article.

Another advantage of using less popular hastags is that your post has a bigger chance of appearing under trending or hot pages. This is simply because there are not as many posts and you are competing with less writers.
